The GT40 batch mainly:

Probably the fact you're not using cleanup-hugetimesucking techniques is making you pay that forced lighting with a bit unreal fades and hues as a result. You know, more contrast = bad texture enhancement, and I'm guessing you're dodgering highlight/midtones sometimes, searching for spectacular effects. These things must work, but only after being sure of what parts can be tweaked.
You work better with night scenes, where the tweak thing is more evident; but at day it becomes much more critical.

Thanks man! Glad you like! It took me a lot of time and work to get to where I am, and I know I have a long long way to go to catch some of these guys.
Im thinking I want to change my entry now.
Thanks for the comments Alex. I have been doing some homework and learned some more things, first time implicating them is upcoming.

WOW, UNBELIVABLE!!!!
Great cleanup, with a washed metallic look, and great reflections and the light in front of the car are spectacular. What a great image.
Can I make a suggestion? Did you try putting rain effect or post rain effect? Like raining and with water drops on «the camera» or something. I think it would stay fabulous with a rainy weather effect 👍

Man!!! That DB9 is!!!! A great shot, no doubt 👍
x2. Nice cleaning up on the car. Your work is certainly getting better than the one before!
👍 thanks for the comments guys! I certainly hope that each shot is getting better. Now, an LdS request:weather added to the earlier DB9 shot.

That is what I was talking. Great work. I prefer the rainy one, since the car and the background have a rain ambient and the rain is quite realistic 
.
Thanks.:tup:
Btw, I saved the image on my HDD (and I only do that when I see shots extra extraordinary) 👍 👍 👍

I didn't have any skills 6 months ago. Whether I do or not is still debatable
an update for your weekend. These were done yesterday.
btw, I do have the first one in wallpaper size if anyone would like. I don't save them that size often
From cccl wk50 and a runner up.
do enjoy!👍
I'd like to thank you all for viewing and commenting in my gallery, since I have been here for over 6 months now!

WOW, GOSH
In credible, the pictures of the cobras are real impressive.
The saleen is good, but the cobra is absolutely amazing.
Can you send me that wallpaper size picture of the 1st one? Thanks 👍

Thanks muz, glad you like that first one, as for the rest, I was hoping the detail of the shots would make them stand out. Don't think it came out that way.The first Cobra shot looks really nice.
👍 Thanks for the feedback!
hey thanks TVR, I really like the car pose in that one.
I'm having some trouble with what to come out with next...
Alfa Romeo 155 TI Race car?
71 cuda?
or the HKS Genki Hyper Silvia?
I really can't decide, I don't run into this often.
Maybe more feedback on the cobra abd S7 or any other set would get me rollin...💡👍

Love those Cobra shots Swiss, the Cobra is probably my favourite car. You have done it proud. I prefer the second, like the lighting over the car and the angle/composition of the shot.
I like the S7 shots too, I think the first one would look better if the car stood out a bit more. The background is kind of distracting, maybe if the BG was desaturated and the yellow of the car was a bit brighter.
Anyway, I think you have some nice skills. You have come a long way fast.
Your next update, go with the Cuda. I love your Drift entry. 👍

Thanks so much TW, that means a lot.
I agree with you about the S7 shot now that you pointed it out, theres too much goin on. Thanks for the kind words!
any other thoughts about the upcoming update?
alfa 155, cuda or Silvia?

- TheSwissLegend
Well since TW is the only comment on what I should do next, The cuda it is...
Thats coming this week...
first off, entry from artistic comp: showroom style
Some more Showroom Style
I really like the lighting of this particular location. I think you can pull of some things with CS here that you can't elsewhere.
