Re: Practicing my 'shopping skills.
Very good. Exactly fits my monitor too.
I've got a fair bit of experience in Photoshop (Avatar and Sig as well as tons of other stuff), and I have a couple of suggestions.
First, the middle tyre mark would look better if it was moved under the right rear wheel, which looks like it's floating a bit. Shouldn't be too tricky to copy that bit and move it.
Second, I think the bit of sky needs the blur tool, it looks very computery and rough. Smooth it out and it'll look very real.
Thirdly, the whole image could use some softening and a contrast boost.
I mean all of that in a good way too, it'll just give it that extra realism.

Re: Practicing my 'shopping skills.
I had a go myself, I hope you don't mind. I was forced to increase the size of the inner image slightly (part of it had gone transparent at some stage, probably my carelessness with the eraser) and I've saved this version as a .jpg. I'm not a fan of PNG files.

1.) Yeh, I only noticed the tyre after I had finished lol. That is the way LFS had put it out, For some reason the back right isn't leaving marks lol.matt2000 wrote:Very good. Exactly fits my monitor too.

2.) I think I chose the wrong weather conditions, It's FE with overcast.. Which I thought I could make look kind of dark and almost-stormy.. Turns out it just gives a pretty poor lighting condition and bland sky lol
3.) I'm personally not a fan of the 'softened' look. Even slight blur messes with my eyes, I don't get the effect from it other folk do heh. Much prefer the clean line thing, Each to their own =)
I like yours, Like I said I'm not one for the softened look but I do like it =)
Currently trying to figure out how to add believeable smoke, Even with smoke mod in LFS I couldn't get a shoot that really showed the burning rubber heh..
