[serious] photoshop stuff critique(s)

[dark_shadow]

hey guys i was thinking of entering a car pic i photoshopped into a contest and was wondering if anyone has and advice as to what could be done to make the pic better etc

Here is the origonal pic

and here's mine

Don't make the lightning symmetrical. It's too obvious.

It's too obvious about what? that car was photoshoped? that's the point of the contest is for photoshopped cars

[thegreatone]

You're supposed to make it not obvious it was photoshopped.

Oh, btw, neds less red smear, and more lightinnnnnnng on the cae. I'm drunk.

I'm drunker. I just witnessed VisualAd kicking a milkshake.

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahaha Thats ace!

The lightening in back looks stupid, but the car itself looks really good. Well done.

[wossname]

Definitely doesn't look like you used MSPaint's bucket tool.

Also the 'ground' looks too much like the back right wheel would be dangling in thin air. Extend the gradiante up a bit and then change the fruity paintjob.

alright i see what you mean i'm assuming that beacuse of the lowering and addition ot the body kit lol ya the colour for the paint job is kinda bright alright guys thanks for the replies so far

[..:RUDI:..]

REMOVE THE LIGHTENINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!

[wossname]

PS, more lightening. Lots more. Forget the car and just have loads of lightening. Then add more.

[Static]

No .. lol.. remove the lightning. no good

and the red smear is bleeding off the edges of the wheel wells...
Make sure you take your time when masking edges.. it makes a big difference

i didnt mask off the marker lights etc.. but just showing.. look at the wheel wells.. its not bleeding off onto the tire..

[baja_yu]

Change the color of the car (but not to a gay one like Static). Remove the lightnings, when "lowering" the car, make sure you add some shadow onto the top of the tyres so it looks that they are overlaped by the wheel well, or use lower profile tyres. Now it looks as the tyres are would scrape across the metal edge if the car was in motion.

And one final small note, change the car, use a better and cooler car than the Crossfire.

Also, please add more lightning and more cowbell.
Especially more cowbell. I need more cowbell.

[dark_shadow]

alright guys thanks for the comments

@ Static i didnt even realize it was bleeding onto the tires i guess what's what happens when you do it at 3 am

@baja_yu whay car would you suggest ?

edit : if i can find a good car worth editing ( i'm looking at a nissan 350z right now) i'll put it up and you guys can tell me what ya think

[baja_yu]

Bugatti Veyron has a nice dual color look, you could use that nicely with the edit. Or edit a Porsche 911 GT2. Or do a Fiat Multipla (not the newest model, the one prior to it) which is my all time ugliest car in the world.

[baja_yu]

The 350Z is a much better choice. See if you can find some images of the Jaguar XJ220, that is a fantastic car.

[dark_shadow]

hmm sounds good i'll look for them i think we should make this a photoshopped stuff thread and have other people post what ever they want as well so if anyone wantsto post other stuff that they have done then go ahead

[Static]
