I'm in the process of decorating my new apartment, so I've begun a project where I want to hang something up that I made myself. I've ended up with a vintage Vespa as my motive, and this is the first, well, testrender. I'm trying to achieve a vintage look, that has seen a lot, but not too worn. Not sure how large I want it yet, but my guess is that the final render will be quite large.

This is the first attempt, I'm thinking about keeping the angle and motive, but I'm open for any suggestions! Since the final render probably needs to bake over some days, I want to make sure that the final one are superb. Model from Turbosquid.

Magnus, this is totally badass! I love this shot, and your texturing on the front end of the bike is absolutely killer, man! The detail is incredible, especially when viewed full rez in a separate window...outstanding!

+1 with Eric's sentiments - The only bit thing missing is some wearing out on that seat, maybe it's already there but too blurred out to see.

Thanks a bunch Martin! I'll definitely rough up the seat for the next iteration. Thanks for the feedback!  Also: thanks for holding me back on the scratch amount;)

Thank you for your kind words, not to mention the interesting fun fact. Cool! I'm gonna take care of that information.

Anyhow. Small 4k update on the guy, including a roughed up seat as suggested by Martin.

Holy moly, the Vespa  images are a piece of art. So freaking nice. The material creation and lighting is on a whole other level.
Inspiring to say the least.
Thanks for sharing.

Tim, that's very kind of you to say. From one who has been one of the major inspiration sources since before I even knew of this software, it sure means a lot. Thank you!

Really nice renders Magnus 
Do you use Normal projection or UV coordinates for the textures  ?

Thank you, Finema! It's a variety of maps actually. For the chrome rim outside the paint I've used a simple box map in the roughness channel. For the paint, I've used a combination of spherical and procedural maps. For the "nose", I've used normal mapping. I've attached the mat-graph for the paint if you are interested in the channel utilization.
