Snake Special - Part 1

Here we go, it's Part 1/2 of a Viper Special. The Dodge Viper always has been one of my favourite cars, especially in GT5. The looks, sounds, handling and the astonishing power these snakes have - even in stock form - is great. Some shots of several Vipers out of my/a friend's garage.

Taken this ACR out for a quick night race. What a beast!

Tried to make this looking a bit day-ish. Do you like the editing? I'm unsure.

DodgeViperSRT10ACR11.jpg


A Viper previously owned by me. She was lovely, one of the first premium cars I bought in GT5 because I wanted - not needed - her. Too bad my save got damaged, I lost my first two weeks GT5 career which isn't that bad actually - but starting all over was quite frustrating, especially because I lost this only two days old snake which isn't easy to buy if you're not rich at GT5's career beginning. I bought a yellow SRT-10 again, but it's just not the same...
Anyway, 2 days were enough for about 100 miles of driving and taking some shots.

Got bored in the end, tell me what you'd think if I'd paint my Viper like this:

DodgeViperSRT10Coup8.2.jpg


Personally it reminds me to the Al Thani cars :dopey:

Part 2 is going to follow in 1 or 2 days.

Hope you like my gallery!! Please leave me a post here if you do. Please also visit my website/photostream (see OP and my sig).

+1 Really like that one too 👍 Good start and hope to see some more soon from you
 
I liked the 1,3,4,5 yellow viper and the blue one

Thanks.

This is great. May I suggest that you experiment a bit with lower f-values in some coming shots. They're looking good otherwise. Keep it up. 👍

Will do from now on, it will take some time until the shots arrive here though because I'm always a bit late with uploading.

Thanks, glad you like the 3rd one, it's the best one in my opinion too.
 
Snake Special - Part 2

Here we are again, Part 2 of the Viper Special.

First, an old - no, THE old Viper. The most classical modern muscle car in my opinion.

Shots were taken several months ago, wasn't great at editing back then, not much better today though. Sorry for the shots being quite dark. Anyway, this one went out quite good I think:

DodgeViperGTS4.jpg


I fixed that nasty smoke bugs, took me quite some time to edit those two ones... comments/criticism would be great. I know they are a bit too dark.

DodgeViperGTS7.jpg


Next, you see this amazing matte light green beast. It's mine, but I'm not using it as much as it actually should be driven... I have too many other nice cars I guess...

Played with the lighting and green tones here, hope you like it!

DodgeViperSRT10ACR4.jpg


DodgeViperSRT10ACR1.jpg


DodgeViperSRT10ACR6.jpg


Dddddaaaaaaaytona!

DodgeViperSRT10ACR2.jpg


Will try to add one bonus image from now on in every 2nd to 3rd update here. Hope you like this one, I used a special filter:

DodgeViperSRT10Coup1.jpg


I WANT OPINIONS!! MORE COMMENTS AND STUFF!

Come on, I'm hoping you like at least 1 or 2 shots of this set? If yes, please leave me a comment. Constructive criticism if you don't like my pictures is also welcome, I'm trying to get better from photo to photo as much as possible.
Thanks again to everyone who did already tell me his opinion. :) I'm trying to give credits back to you by commenting on your gallery as well if you have one.

I'm planning to do a Lamborghini shooting with many orange bulls eating the roads next week, will open a new thread to organise this thing. Link will be posted here as soon as I'm ready with the OP.

Firstly I'd recommend not starting a new gallery 👍 You will be able to do it all in this thread :)

Now the set... I think the first green viper shot is just too bright, but the other three are good. Not as keen on the first few older viper shots
 
the 1st green viper popped my eyes
the 3rd green viper is great
the last green viper is fantastic
the last one its just :drool:👍
you put your location is in your gtr so you have to put your gtr :P
and keep it going ;)

Nah, you got that wrong then. I meant starting a new thread for the organisation, not for the pictures itself. :)

Thanks for your critics.

Wow, thanks! Glad you like those shots. I'll keep going for sure. :)

Mixed Uploads (1)

Some mixed stuff today, hope you like it.

NissanGTRR352.jpg

A very old shot, from my first photo travel in GT5.

BMWM3E46GTR5.jpg

Driving this M3 is much fun, especially sideways.

AstonMartinVanquish1.jpg

Too bad this is a standard car... :boggled:

ShelbyCobra42717.jpg

Older shot, new editing.

McLarenMP412C4.jpg

Almost unedited!

McLarenMP412C5.jpg

Gotta love the DoF GT5 produces. :)

Finally, my entry for the CCCL week 33 competition, I hope that people like it... :)

Holy moly that LFA one is incredible! :drool: I wish I could catch spitting flames that well.

Love the colour on the ACR as well! 👍
 
The cherry-red Cobra is brilliant!
I love the complementary contrast, the perspective / composition and especially the lighting. Looks like early morning Nordschleife to me.
Your Vipers are fine – but I don't love those "pubertal" body colours.
Fine start anyway, go ahead and show us more!
 
Great to see that this gallery is living! :)

Thanks and thanks, but which ACR do you mean? The blue one or the matte green one? :)

Loving the M3, MP4-12C & LF-A shots:)👍

Thanks, glad you like them.

Thank you, the Cobra shot is by the way actually a quite old shot that I edited in a completely new way a few days ago, I'm happy that people enjoy it. 👍
If I remember correct, this was done on Le Mans, anyway, both tracks - Sarthe and the 'Ring - have great sunset lightings I think. :)

About the Viper colours, I know that they all are a bit crazy and it definitely depends on your personal taste if you like them (or not). I'll try to post some more neutral cars in the next uploads.

Teaser for the next upload is coming later tonight!
 
This shot really caught my attention. It's very well composed. You get a real sense of speed from it, not to mention you capture the MC4-12P in all it's glory.

The LFA shot is just unreal. :embarrassed: Really made my jaw hit the floor for a while, love the matte black colour choice too!
 
Nice job KiroKai! PD really did a good job rendering the LFA, but your presentation of it helped bring out the detail.
 
I'm glad you guys like my pictures. The LF A picture, unfortunately, didn't even got into the poll... anyway, I hope I'll have some more luck next time.

Sorry for not posting any updates, I will try to get some new shots up here soon to keep the gallery living. :)
 
It's been a while. A big while. Almost forgot about this gallery until I suddenly found it in my browser favourites today. New update will follow soon. 👍
 
Audi R8 - The Gallardo for your everyday business

After no new uploads for a long time, here I am again, with some shots of the street versions of the Audi R8 also including the Le Mans Concept. Enjoy the photos, criticism appreciated. 👍

AudiR84.2FSI11.jpg


AudiR84.2FSI9.1.jpg

The 4.2 FSI version with its sweet V8 engine...

AudiLeMansquattroConcept1.jpg


AudiR85.2FSI30.jpg

Action! Well, at least we tried... lol

AudiLeMansquattroConcept3.jpg

The together driving worked better.

AudiR85.2FSI17.jpg

Yeah, I'm still addicted to these crazy colours... anyway, this is one of only a few cars that actually match matte yellow in my opinion.

AudiR85.2FSI10.jpg

I prefer the blue one still though.

AudiR85.2FSI25.jpg

BONUS: Just a quick snapshot... That's what happened to the poor Audi after some shooting. Also take note of the man on the left who doesn't give a f:censored: what's happening.

Thanks for visiting my gallery and watching my photos! Again, comments/criticism appreciated. Merry Christmas to you all guys, see you again in the new year! :)

 
Took too long for me to get my ass over here, I'm such an slug :lol:

http://img7.imagebanana.com/img/385c1ngp/DodgeViperSRT10ACR10.jpg

Decent but can use a little more tilt to make it more lively.

http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/mpu282or/DodgeViperSRT10ACR11.jpg

Day-ish indeed, but the Viper's headlights say it's 45 minutes after 5 o'clock :P

http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/dcioz00u/DodgeViperSRT10Coup3.jpg

I can feel the car going round the corner, thumbs up.

http://img7.imagebanana.com/img/1zyy3qc4/DodgeViperSRT10Coup4.jpg

I like the calm mood and the sense of the car just cruising to the light at the end of the tunnel.

http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/39fcqnqs/DodgeViperSRT10Coup7.jpg

Fireworks below the car, just like my unreleased MINOLTA 88CV shots, eh? Still a nice touch.

http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/iuej767y/DodgeViperSRT10Coup6.jpg

Same with the other fireworks shot, I like how the rule of thirds was applied.

http://img7.imagebanana.com/img/fpj72nnh/DodgeViperSRT10Coup8.2.jpg

What's that paint chip's name? I've been looking for that for ages :dopey:

http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/wljyotly/DodgeViperGTS4.jpg

Makes sense when I think it's midnight in there. Never too dark. :P

http://img7.imagebanana.com/img/8z7dd6zr/DodgeViperSRT10ACR4.jpg

Too bright :ill:

http://img7.imagebanana.com/img/ook28auw/DodgeViperSRT10ACR2.jpg

DAAY- arrgh you beat me to it. :mad: Anyway complementing the car with the name written on the wall looks beautiful, well done.

http://img7.imagebanana.com/img/wvy4zhnl/DodgeViperSRT10Coup1.jpg

May I use this? :dopey:

http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/xptn6uvh/NissanGTRR352.jpg

Ahh, this. Brings me memories when I posted my first ever photo mode shot in your R35 thread. Personally I think you have to zoom out and utilize the rule of thirds instead but it still looks fine. By the way, if you're wondering how one of my R35's looks like (without being smashed :lol:), it's in here.

http://img7.imagebanana.com/img/wk6q76jz/BMWM3E46GTR5.jpg

Needs to be a little more exciting through the use of tilt and stuff.

http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/v8jujour/McLarenMP412C4.jpg

The composition is unique. I've never seen a shot like this where the car is centered and it still looks good. I'm a sucker for the rule of thirds, so yeah. Amazing.

http://img7.imagebanana.com/img/v2ssvf7b/NuerburgringNordschleife_42.jpg

Lucky bastard, you only got two of the three pipes lit up :P

http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/gm0ksblt/AudiR85.2FSI30.jpg

You two hooning? :dopey: Photography with two cars is pretty tricky, since you have to make the photo look good while having both cars included. This shot is also great.

http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/wwgxuv85/AudiR85.2FSI10.jpg

Does that car have a wing with the name ROLEX painted on it? :dopey:

By the way, can you try to resize you photos? It's raping my net :lol:
 
BIG SORRY for letting this thread dying so badly, I either had no time or just forgot about it. Will try to release something soon again as I have more than enough shots release-ready, I'm just too lazy to upload them and copy-and-past all the codes :P

(...)

1. What's that paint chip's name? I've been looking for that for ages :dopey:

http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/wljyotly/DodgeViperGTS4.jpg

2. Too bright :ill:

4. By the way, can you try to resize you photos? It's raping my net :lol:

Thanks for all your comments! It was a real joy to read your post. Sorry for not replying earlier. :nervous:

Anyway, here are some replies:

1. The shot is taken from the yellow Viper set... I simply used Photoshop to get that colour. :)
Though you can try Paint Chips like "Surf Blue" or "Turchese Farfalla" (comes from an old standard Fiat 500) which will give you a blue turquoise colour... if you want to have such a bright one as on the picture you should use the DLC colour "GT-Fluroscence 002" (Image from Rare Colour Database Thread). I have a couple "Al Thani" style cars made with that colour, if you're interested to trade drop me a PSN message. 👍

2. Yeah, when I look at that image today I think it's overdone, when I edited I tried to give it as much light as possible to make it feeling... bright? I don't remember :lol:

3. Where?
If it is TV advertisement: Yes! ...But give some credits to me. :P

4. Yeah I can imagine that, had to live with a very slow connection until early 2011 too, especially loading pictures takes ages then... sorry. :ill:
I usually save my .jpg files with quality set to 12 in Photoshop though to get the best picture quality.
