Woah i love that pic its its.... i don't know what to say?

Um... I love it!!!!👍
 
You should have used more contrast on the BG, but still I find it a good shot.

I like the rims you got on that car, and the fact that it only shows color on the left front rim and right back of the car, being the rest basically b/w.
 
thanks for the comments everyone. the background was a bit of a pain for me. i dont know why, but i've been missing details on my updates lately. glad you guys somehow liked it...thanks for the kind words :) here's another one of my experiments. ever wonder what it would be like if Tsukuba suddenly got a hail storm ?:lol: this is one of the many left overs fromy the Viper vs. Elise shots, yes, that i was gonna use for the underdog theme. just thought i'd rather do something with them and post them here. enjoy folks!

 
and since when were we able to see cars on a terrible hail storm ? specially if they're going more than 100mph on wet pavement? i did it like that to make use of the effects of the stock photo. the cars were not supposed to be seen, this is more about the effects, and what happens when you drive in that weather.

ps: thanks for taking the time to comment anyways.
 
I think it's just great!

You got the effect nailed down pretty well on that one, and find it realistic, considering the excess of that particular situation. 👍
 
It is a great place to do the rain effect since you are already getting water spray in the shot. I think the rain would look better if it was a bit darker and more vertical. Still very nice shot. 👍
I really like you RX7 shot, very different. The ground looks cool, what did you do to it? It looks as though you used the cloud filter. The rims look very nice too, great work J. Nice title change. :D
 
Great shot!!! Looks so real, holy s***!! I think U have captured the feeling of "stormy weather" very well. The spray effect is just amazing.
Congrats for this cool/beautiful update:)
 
i thought about making a slideshow of my old and new shots, just to show the difference. i feel so stupid making this triple post, but i guess i have to now since i have to bump my gallery back up again for people to see it. remember, this is only my first slideshow, so take it easy. i'm thinking of doing my next update like this, but i'm not so sure yet, as i'm running out of time day by day as my vacation time approaches.enjoy the vid!

Btw, how do i do hyperlinking or whatever it's called?
 
Very very neat man, I like the idea.
I especially liked the Model T on the bamboo phototravel location, and the white BTR jumping out like a ghost out of the dark black roads. Was a very nice effect.

👍 Very good :)
 
Nicely executed rain-photo, hopefully I'll be able to tackle that just as well sooner or later.
 
Damn, work computer doesn't allow me to watch it.
Is there a way to download it and then save it to a usb pen?

About the linking thing you asked, you have to select (just highlight it using the left mouse button) the part of the text that you want people to click (to direct them to the link), then click that earth icon, then enter the URL you want. That's about it. (hope you understand what I typed)
 
A very nice first attempt at a slide show, jgda9rs, anyway I am looking forward to your next update.
 
thanks everyone. that slideshow is to commemorate my switch from gimp to photoshop cs2 :D it's just a collection of my shots, both old and new. glad you guys liked it.

Beerzgood: i dont know how. but if you want, you can search my username in youtube and you'd probably see it.

thanks again. now on to my next update.

Featuring: The Mazda RX-7 Type R A Spec







 
Your updates are getting better everytime JD 👍

I see you're getting good at cleanup as well, just keep practising 👍 The only I could say though is that on the first two pictures, the hood lines got veryblurred due to cleanup so I'd suggest you could select them with the pol. lasso tool and fill them with black 👍 Not too much though and if you want to have them realistic, dodge the sides on them and below on the hood line 👍
 
Very nice! The last one really stands out. The colours are great and not over the top. Great choice of rims as well. They really fit the car very well. The spoiler isn't my cup of tea but it's not that ugly.. Great update!
 
Great cleanup on all besides the last one. I like that one with a spoiler, i remember i had a matte black one with a big spoiler, a '91 RX-7 type r or something, it looked very sweet 👍
 
WOW, these shots are amazing man. You are getting better a clean up jobs. I really like the second one with the reddish glow to it, that one is great. But I also really like the 3rd, the reflections on it are pretty clean, i also like the sparkling lamp up there, it looks nice.
 
thanks everybody.yeah the last one's not really as impressive as the first three to me either. the spoiler was actually pretty ragged looking from the original pics.i was gonna do a carbon fiber effect on them, but i was afraid it would stand out too much from the photo and not look perfect.

Ultrashot: thanks for the tip mate! i'm gonna try that out. these updates were inspired by the tips you gave me before. i just wasn't sure how to use the p-lasso tool yet, most of the clean up you see on those updates, i used free select the whole time, just like the rest of my updates. but yeah, i'm gonna try and improve the techniques. thank you for the advice!!

Here's my true hardcore fantasy. i almost bought the US version (non type-r)
three years ago, but i found out that the car i wanted to get was a rebuild, and that it was just not reasonable to pay $45,000, atleast for a non type r model for the model year it came in. but given the chance now, i'd probably still go for one if it has a clean title. this update i'm not really as impressed as my rx7 update, but i spent so much time on them, and these photos spent so much time lying around in my hard drive, i thought i might as well share it with everyone here. thanks for the comments again.

Honda NSX Type R NA2







i know the rims might not be to everyone's taste, but this is my stock, track car with nothing but suspension mods on it. i didn't really care about the wheels at the time :D oh well. hope you guys like the photo. constructive criticism is very needed at this time, as i'm not really sure about the clean up and lighting i have done with this update.

Freddy: those rims i think were from enkei if i'm not mistaken. i got the idea of the spoiler and the rims from RE Amemiya's Tsukuba time attack car. if you've seen hot version's Tsukuba Superlap video from last year, you'd know what i'm talking about.
 
thanks tvr! i did this latest shot tonight, and i can't help but show it to everyone. i dont know what it is about it, but i just love it so much.

here it is:
