Well, this area is dead.

Maybe it's because you're trying too hard with your lighting?

I dunno. I might have something, but I'll only post it if I actually like it (as usual. My dissatisfaction killed my entries, really). I brought the car downstairs though. I might as well use it... I don't light paint very much anymore, I try to get the lighting to work without it. Not sure what I'll do.

NISM0_SKYLINE · Feb 2, 2011

It's the only thing I can work with. I like having contol over what the lighting is, the natural light thing just throws me off. I use to us the staic light, but got bored of it. I try to get the wind tunnel look, but after awhile they look the same, that's why it's at an angle this time :lol:

I now feel that I can control the natural lighting to a certain degree, and use it to its advantage (which it does have, in some cases). I like going outside more in terms of lighting: sadly that is less of an option. That snow you're getting? Well, it's coming here next.

NISM0_SKYLINE · Feb 2, 2011

I'll mix it up eventually, maybe :sly:

. Ah yes, the "Snowpocalypse", I'll be sure to send my warmest regards along.

Oh, sup guys! I've done a few of these today as part of a college assignment so I thought I'd pitch in on this rare occasion when I do have photos of the 1 model car I have to hand.

Hey there mate. ^^ You do have very good taste in models though, based on your one model. :lol:

Don't let it hold you back, GPR entered with his 911 GT3 RS for....weeks. I'm sure it was greater than 7 times. Hah. Appreciate the contribution regardless.

NISM0_SKYLINE · Feb 2, 2011

Not only did he enter it 7+ times, he won most of them too. Glad to see more people entering, not quite the hayday, but close.

Speedster502 · Feb 2, 2011

I'll try and throw something in later tonight. Nice work so far guys!

EDIT: Didn't have time tonight, will do something in the morning if that's OK.

Yep.

I did better than I expected.

If this one holds out for the weekend, I promise I'll have an entry up. If not, oh well.

Just had so many things to do and no time to shoot lately. But want to particularly because I have a new model. Finally. Although having had a run big run with the GT3, I'll likely have a new run with my new one.

Lets just say it was beginners luck, for a few weeks

Mm, yeah that's alright. I'll hold it until then.

Well. You are good. Don't pretend like you didn't know that.

I don't know if this will keep until the weekend. If I do, I'll just delay both this and the Auto...I like keeping them synced.

But yay! New model, wooo! Can't wait to see it.

-------

I guess I'll be entering these again more often. Maybe. I don't know if I will. All about how satisfied I am with what I do. This is pretty meh, but...oh well. I haven't done it for a while...

Final Entry

If this remains open, I'll try to get something done tonight.

Beautiful shots so far, you guys are really taking this to a whole new level. 👍

It'll be open for then, I would think. Especially if you're planning on entering.

Indeed, everyone has upped their game and I've stayed the same. :nervous:

Great to see you entering again LB, it's been a long while. And of course what you consider Meh is still really good. Nice model by the way. 👍

Well if you do hold this until saturday I'll have an entry up.

Good stuff by all so far.

Here's a horrible entry.

Canon EOS 350D

It's a old shot, but I haven't had time to take something new that fits this theme.

I've got a model waiting to be used for something that I do have new shots of, but sadly it didn't fit the theme.

Beerz · Feb 4, 2011

I don't even have old shots...

Sadly, yesterday I wasn't able to shoot anything for this, as I was called to do a night shoot for the guys of the local BMW club.
I'll try to do something today at lunch time. If I can't, I'm afraid I'm out, as in the afternoon I'll be heading straight from work to an awesome weekend with gf in an isolated place in the south and won't be back until Sunday evening.
It'll be sweeeeeeeeeeeet.

GPR · Feb 5, 2011

Ok as promised I have an entry today. Wasn't overly happy with it but after a few small adjustments it turned out pretty well. Thanks for holding it open LB.
