[iaponas]

Can anyone share a tutorial?

Great manips everyone (or not manips, just composites)! Might make my first one soon.

Here's one I did for another topic

Stellar effort from mmart360 btw. Some major time/planning must've gone into that little ensemble.

PS I notice only 1 RM Corvette. I only bothered with one of them as well. Didn't think the '06 was worth the effort.

PPS on reflection, I think I'm going to redo the X2010, try to get it more central. Should be the easiest to change. Also, anyone think it's worth a small rotate?

I'm sorry but can someone tell me how to make a composite photo? I'm using paint.net and it's almost the same as photoshop.

Easiest method is to pick a location and don't move the camera. With each car, move it after you've selected 'take shot' (or whatever) then use the select button to change car position. Try to remember where your spaces are. Then when you've got all your shots, pick the one furthest back and copy/paste all the others onto it. Tricky parts are reflections (you'll need some talent to get this right) and window cutouts, so if you're not confident, keep the potential for these to a minimum (easiest way is to park cars far enough apart). Remove unwanted background as required from each car as you 'move forward' towards the camera. This will be easier if no cars overlap. Watch out for shadows. Also, composites can look a little unnatural if the cars are close together which I think might be to do with the way colours of objects affect the overall view of a shot, (hard to explain, this one) even if there are no overlaps/reflections to worry about. Try using the same car in different positions first (it's quicker to get your source photos this way) and just experiment.

Since it was this particular thread that first got me posting, I'll contribute a couple more to the cause...

These have both been posted in other threads (All things Nissan and American Muscle), but they are composites - so they belong here.

This is exceptional work.

Here's my first attempt at a composite image, I used an old version of Paint Shop Pro I've had for years and haven't used in a while so I'm a bit rusty but I think it turned out alright. Ford GT was the base image with the Ferrari and Zonda cut / paste onto it.

lol it looks like it's from the episode of top gear

Sorry to bump this thread, but I think these pics belong here

This one is not from phototravel, but since other guys posted cars on circuit...

Attempt #2. This one was harder b/c I moved the camera a little.
