As homage to what we consider one of the most elegantly designed sports cars of the decade, we created a highly detailed model of the Audi R8, and gave it its own virtual photo shoot. The car is modeled, textured, lit, and rendered in a completely virtual studio set, using only schematic orthographic drawings of the original design. In the end, discovering previously unseen details further cemented the car in our minds as proof that machines can still win our hearts.
