if you post your settings as well as application it will be easier to help. But in the meanwhile look for settings such as rays or samples ...maybe I don't know for sure

Very nice model, Mark. And a clean mesh, too.

As for the shadows: I use brazil sometimes and never get ugly patchy shadows like that. It may be because you have a blueprint on top of the brazil ground plane. Try rendering without the blueprint planes and you should get nice fuzzy, delicious shadows... shadows have taste.

Unless you want shadows which actually look like a shadow of the car. Then you should be something like a spotlight or omni in.

I guess its just a matter of prefference. I, personally, think those shadows look great. Did you change the paint a little? I like it better this way.

If you're using brazil what fixes the shadows is in the Luma Server part and its called like viewrate or something. The value should be set at 15 default. I change mine to 30 and it usually comes out fine Awesome looking model, thats a sweet car too, nothing to crit form me
