•Swiss Legend Photos • Goodbye

nice cake man. I remember when my mum made me a car cake. It was an open wheeler with a cake body, swiss rolls for wheels and axles made from liquorish. The driver's helmet was a potato. I can't remember, but I'm pretty sure the spoilers (front and back) where made of wafer. Combined with a livery made out of icing, it was epic. It was for my 3rd birthday party and I still remember it 15 years on. My mum's awesome.

That cake is sick! You even got matchbox cars on it. I'm guessing (and hoping) that that's chocolate filings on top for a road surface? Nice touch. Compliments to the chef:tup:
 
mmmmmm that looks good !! your girl got mad skills !! reminds me of a dirtbike cake my folks got me when i was a kid

Then you can say the same for many other members here. I never said these pics were brilliant. I am sorry that you have grown tired of certain shots that are pretty solid that maybe not everyone has tried before. I thank you for your criticism though
Then you'll admit that sometimes the praise you get is a tad.. exaggerated? Or are you content to not comment on that.
Glad you accept the criticism though, no hard feelings. Hopefully you'll notice this new members many updates some time...

Eh, really nothing? Sure? Yes? Alright, let's counter that: First of all, you say everyone has tried something like this? - Not everyone has done something like this, including me
A photographic eye should be seduced by these reflections pretty easily, since only a handful of locations in Gt4 have them. Thats not to say this particular location in Deep forest has been exhausted, and this particular shot sure is proof of that.

If you're tired of this, why do you then care about this shot and comment to it? What's the point in doing this?
I try to understand what people like and why they like it. I care what people think of my own photos.
And the third point I want to make is that I really like this shot, because there is something special about it.. First of all, it's very hard to take a good shot of any car.. You've to take it at the perfect angle (done here), make perfect adjustemnts in GT4's photomode (done here) and then edit the picture perfectly with Photoshop (done here
I sure hope you think my shots are at such a level that I wouldn't need to be reminded of this, but I think I see what you mean...the photos are pretty good, but in light what he's done in the past, and what I have done recently, I don't see why more people like my photos.

I'm glad you didn't mean to be harsh. I hope I'm in position to get praised on any updates I might add, if they deserve it. I'll add some more photos once more to see if its worth updating at all.
 
Nice Cake! But is it topped with... wait for it... Ahh, spoiler tags for suspense ftw:tup:...

Swiss Cheese!
 
now wheres the stig..... :lol:
I thought it was missing something :sly:

a mustang and an....aston? interesting combo!
Indeed. She picked the aston right at least!

Nice, that cake sounds awesome. The chocolate is actually a mixture of crushed chocolate wafers and ghiradelli chocolate.

mmmmmm that looks good !! your girl got mad skills !! reminds me of a dirtbike cake my folks got me when i was a kid
It was good! I wonder if shes trying to to tell me something with this cake. Think there's any symbolism there for me not acting my age? :lol:

Happy Birthday, cake is amazing.
Thanks balang!

Happy Birthday!

It was a complete surprise to me too.

exaggerated? My god man, Do you have an issue with me because I have not been to your gallery? Look, I appreciate every comment and every opinion I get on my shots. Keep in mind that this one was a request from another member. To me you just sound a bit pissed that I have not been to your gallery. Its fine if you don't like my works, but don't beat them down with mediocre, standard and that 'they aren't terrible'. That's just low. You could just ask me to visit if you want me to. You sure don't make me want to now.
btw...please leave comments that degrade the works in other peoples galleries who haven't visited yours[/rant]

Swiss Cheese!
:lol::lol::lol:
That is classic....
Thanks man.

I hope you had a great birthday.
Thanks buddy! I did have a great one!
Wait, there's another car behind the "2". My best guess is a...240SX maybe?
Skyline :)

yes, 24, :D mmmm I hope it will indeed be a good year for swiss cheese. I also hope its a great year for Tangled Rim...
 
I just went through your gallery, and I all can say is WOW. I was amazed by everything :drool: 👍.
Wow, thanks man! I appreciate you taking the time to do that. I'm glad that you liked some/most/all of my work :D

Now I move on to another request. This one was LancerEvo7GSR's request. Hope ya enjoy!




also, a couple of runners up for the 2.0 tournament. (both shots are unfinished)




 
The Evo´s are insane Swiss, specially the 2nd one!! The quality is superb, and great looking reflections all over!!

The other shots, I must say the TVR has there some great potential, because if you said its not finished and its already quite cool, I imagine that shot in a final form, would be so great!!! The rims are really well shwon once more, you make them really stand out!! Better luck next time Swiss, we got beaten by two great guys of photomode.

Wow, that second Lancer shot is absolutely adorable! Te car is clean, the blur is top-notch, the tones are perfect, and the angle is eye-candy 👍 The wheel blurs are a little but off, but that's what you get with wide angles :)

Loving the TVR shot as well, but those rims on an RX-7?! Gotta be kidding me now :P


:cheers:
 
The Evo pictures are amazing.. Especially the second one :drool: And the TVR and the RX-7 are insane (now, guess how good they'll look when you finish them :scared:) 👍

Thank you nuno, I hope to finish the TVR shot one day but the projects I have going are stacking up. We did indeed get beaten by two great guys with extreme talent!

Second that. Very nice Evo man!
Thanks sweetshop!
Love the Evo, and the TVR and Mazda are incredible!
Thank you sir.

oh my jumping jeebus that second evo shot....
:D Glad you liked!

I still need to work on the wheel blurs. I absolutely hate doing them. I don't know why.
I almost used those rims on the RX7 in my real tournament entry. The shot was almost done, then I noticed the Chevy emblem :yuck:.
I thought 'that can't happen', so I put the TVR's rims on instead! :lol:

The Evo pictures are lovely, especially the second one.
And damn, that TVR is a killer 👍
Thanks bro:tup:

Ihope I do get to finish them. But i won't leave those Chevy rims on the rx7 for sure. Thanks for stopping on by here bud!
