My newest addition the BMW Z4 Roadster all dressed up in Chameleon paint. Body is 90% brushed. I was looking to do something sharp and sleek. Let me know what you think!

I think chameleon it's another color of edges, shapes and curves

Thanks for commenting Noxius. Not quite sure what you mean though.

he means that you only made one area in a different color, but chameleon is spread all over the car in all reflections, not just like you did a good way to get this is to make a few layers of the car's body and play around with the colors, opacity and other settings like soft light, hard light, overlay,..

I made the layers just didn't reflect all over the car. I got ot now. Thanks for the comments.

The way Chameleon paint works is it's made up of several layers of paint. The special pigments change color depending on viewing angle. And naturally the brightness of these colors is affected by the lighting.

So when you go about creating a Chameleon paint effect, you want to give surfaces that face the same direction, a similar color. So to use your Z4 as an example, you have a bit of bumper facing forward, and a large part of the side facing towards the camera, and they have the same color. However, they should be different. Getting it right all over the car requires super smooth and precise color blending though, it's really more for very very advanced choppers.

Cant blame a guy for trying though!

Thanks Construct. I will be posting a version before i decided to go with the failed chameleon. Try try again.
