This project is a technical exercise focused on studio lighting and composition within a surreal environment. The goal was to achieve a photorealistic clear-coat finish on a stylized vehicle while managing complex reflections from the high-contrast checkerboard background. The scene was staged and rendered entirely in Blender, utilizing a custom lighting rig to highlight the car's curves and geometry. Post-production was handled in Adobe Photoshop to fine-tune the contrast and color balance, enhancing the final visual impact.
