CLOSED: CCCL Competition: Week 10

[Apperosio]

Hey Wallbreaker. Good to see you back here competing. Your new PS3 slim has arrived I guess?

 

[Wallbreaker]

Yeah, it took only two days from YLOD to plug the Slim into the TV But I still cannot use my save games as long as I cannot sign in to PSN... luckily both the F40 and Deep Forest were available in Arcade mode so I was able to enter Hopefully PSN is back on soon.

But what´s even worse... I have 192 pics on my Flickr account which has a limit of 200. See the problem? And no, I will not pay 50 bucks for a pro account.

its $50 for a two year pro account, one year is $25

Whatever... I don´t see any reason why I should pay for that.

Hmm I don't know if I'm going to change my entry but I feel like going for another round in the F40 tonight

PS: congrats with the new PS3 Wallbreaker

Thanks But I´d rather like to know if you like my entry

 

[zambuca]

Thanks But I´d rather like to know if you like my entry

Heh, yes I do And it's one of the reasons I'm thinking about changing my entry

@ wallbreaker - I really like your entry this week. I have a hard time taking vertical pics for some reason so I rarely ever take them. But after seeing your entry I think I will have to try and expand my horizons... vertically

Also I was wondering if my entry shows enough of the track or not? It's at the top of page 2. I might go ahead and change it if it is a questionable entry.

Thanks. I don´t take that much vertical photos as well. But this time almost half of the pics I was taking for this comp (23 I think ) were vertical. I was really having fun with the F40 under the trees in the first section of the track Maybe you can get some inspiration from it

Your entry is pretty good but I think I´m the wrong man to decide whether you show enough of the track or not. If you asked me, I could tell you exactly where you took that shot from, besides it might or might not be the reason for not getting into poll. You never know Maybe it´s got nothing to do with that, maybe it´s because of the composition, lighting, etc. It´s all up to the judges taste. I can only repeat quote the Mods: Have confidence with your entry

FINAL ENTRY​

Entering the tunnel​

 

[ThaSyn]

I'm still choosing my entry, but damn these picks all show what an incredible beautiful car the F40 is.

 

[bmxmitch]

@wallbreaker: typical wallbreaker Entry! Love it 👍

good to see you entering again. And you unlearned nothing though....


And I also feel the same like incendius. I'm not sure if my shot shows enough of the track
Well, we shall see....

Very nice; shoulda painted it orange

 

[Grand Prix]

Very nice; shoulda painted it orange

Thanks, I may just have to buy another and paint it orange as I like the sound of that very much,

 

[bmxmitch]

hmm orange!? Never seen that before. Sounds interesting though, haha

Also, if anyone gets a matte pink F40 in the poll, I'll donate a brand new F40 for those!




I'm waiting for a "challenge accepted"

I thought you would say that

good to see you entering again. And you unlearned nothing though....

Actually this little break was good for me. Time to sit back, I was starting to go nowhere...

I'm waiting for a "challenge accepted"

What a pity that I don´t have access to my save game...

Heh, this is why I'm at 750-ish cars; I own multiple copies of a bunch, because I like different colours. Also why I haven't bought many with PSN down; it makes it impossible to duplicate rare UCD colours for my painting needs. Through all of this painting, I've realized there's few colours that look outright bad on the F40. It's not Matte Pink like Mitch wants, but it is Viola Dino

Continuing the assault on the preconception that Rosso Corsa is only acceptable!

I would totally do that, but I already used my matte pink on my prius lol

 

[bmxmitch]

well, it just was to obvious

it really is sometimes. I also had that feeling a few weeks back.

What a pity that I don´t have access to my save game...

Not serious, pffff!

 

[bmxmitch]

what the????
sorry for double post.

I would totally do that, but I already used my matte pink on my prius lol

well, now you have to. I'll send you one when PSN is back on.
I'll expect a special set in your Gallery after it!

Hmmm, that angle looks familiar.

Alright!

That reminds me that I have to make a gallery for myself.

You´re so evil, aren´t you?

@ Slip, thats a stunning pic, I like how it has the feel of an old film shot. Think you'll get my vote 👍

NEW Final Entry



Changed my final entry once and for all
Couldn't figure out what was wrong with my old pic,
but then I realized the car did not interact with the
surroundings too well. So I found a new brownish paint chip,
which has a really nice look in the forest. Hope you like it ​

 

[Wallbreaker]

Amazing how people color their Ferraris... For me every Ferrari has to be in either Rosso Monza or Scuderia

Final Entry



Entry updated​

 

[zambuca]

Oh no...just realized that I forgot to brush up the jaggies in the shadows...am I allowed to do that now?

 

[SlipZtrEm]

Hmmm, that angle looks familiar.

I realized that, but the other potential entries all were lacking in the dramatic sense. I feel entries typically do better in comps if they're dramatic; be that dramatic in their minimalism or dramatic in their, er, drama, but the others just didn't pop as much.

Beautiful entry. 👍

Thanks both

You already used up your week's change, Zam, unfortunately. Though in my opinion, they're very minor and don't detract from the image in any way .

Okay I'll live with it Good to know that it counts as another change. Don't know why I never learn to wait a little before I post my pics
