thanks everyone for the 'support' and comments 
vince: yeah you're right 
Krame : I put some noise coz i thought the blur on the darker side looked a little too blurry to me. ah well. gotta learn somehow. i actually have it as my desktop wallpaper right now, and you guys are right about the noise level. thanks for pointing that out 👍
And now for beerzgood's request, the Toyota Corolla Run X. this little car is actually quite a blast to drive, specially in new york when i was doing the photoshoot. i tuned it with just about every level 2 stuff i can put on it, plus R compound tires, and man, i was having a blast. sounded pretty good too.
no wonder he requested it. i actually made a version of this photo with rain effects done to it, but i dont really like it. maybe i'll show it here one day when no one's looking
and here's one of the scenery shots i promised long time ago. again i would like to apologize for the delay as i have been quite busy lately. but i promise to make up for it when i bring out my newest nurburgring scenery shots. so keep an eye out for them, together with TVR&FF and NTX1982's request pics. enjoy the updates !
Bonus Shots: Aston Martin Vanquish V12. more of this set to come soon, as alexwrc has been waiting for them for quite some time now
i was actually gonna enter this shot for the 'Low' side of the H2H comp, but i liked the one i entered more for some odd reason, kinda reminded me of gotham city. is that wrong ?
before i forget, thanks to everyone that voted for my entry for the H2H comp! 👍

OMG! Man, you're a monster lately with the awesome updates! The Auto union is spectacular. You should take it out at the ring and see what you can do with some photography of it. All the other shots are spectacular in their own right. The R8 is awesome.
Whatever you're doing, keep it up

True...the Corolla is a blast...and U really captured that mate!! What a shot!!!
And look at the color, thats original alright!!
The DB9, true works of art, U really do things right!!! Bling Power!!! And yes, the 1st shot would be a great entry in the "LOW" side of H2H comp., really fits the theme!!
Well done Jg!!

thanks tony. i guess i've been inspired quite a bit lately. most of them i got the ideas from movies and browsing the website of Mr. Cahier. he's inspired me a lot lately. the auto union i actually did take it to nurburgring for a photoshoot, with the b-spec driver handling the driving, though i might do a few more of it in the future. the aston martin photos i've had them for a while now, just waited for the perfect moment to post them here. i might actually change my entry for the new H2H comp, which is more than likely. thanks for the great comments yet again
it's too bad beerz hasn't seen his request yet. oh well. NTX1982: thanks man! much appreciated. your request will be up this sunday at 7 pm PST. here's a photo of Korea i did, which is included in the scenery shots that i promised. i'm holding off on the nurburgring shot for now, as it's gonna be a pretty hard act to follow i think
, but i also included TVR&FF's request of the Speed 12. i hope he's happy with this shot more than i am 
next will be ntx's and an aerial tour of Citta Di Aria.

Sorry for not commenting earlier, I explained it on the PM.
The Corolla shot is almost exactly what I was expecting to see! I specified that color because I wanted to see a bright shot, and not the 'usual' dark and full of reflections kind of shot you usually get at NY.
You did a great job on replicating the metallic tone of blue to the car, and it's a very pleasant shot, in it's simplicity. Only the shadow casted on the tarmac is looking weird on the lower right part.
And you must have a different version of the game, the car's badge is different, not like the usual toyota logo. Or maybe not, I'll check mine and compare.
The scenery shot is good, but not up to your usual standards, I think mainly for the composition. Better than I'd do, though...
The Aston shots are both good, but the 2nd one really grabs me. Love the blur (GT4 blur?), and mainly the realism, namely of the tone of the buildings and the road. Great job on this one. 👍
Not too sure about those rims on that car.
The Speed12 looks pretty good too, what I like the most in this shot is the light, looks very natural, like a real sun shining over the car.
the glow is a nice touch (not overdone) and really suits this shot, specially because of the location, like those gardens where the light seems diffuse. 👍
(pssst... you screwed up the license plate
)
The Seoul shot is very nice too, only it's an angle that's perhaps a bit too seen, if you had caught some other part of the track with equally interesting buildings, it would stand out more. But I like the editing nevertheless.
Speaking of this track, I was actually going to use it for my round 1 entry of the tournament before I decided to use the Zonda in Seattle. I had a Spirra lined in front of the old temple just before the last turn (on the other end of the circuit, relating to this shot) and it looks great, very detailed and you can to shots combining it with the modern buildings on each side.
Thanks for doing my request!

thanks guys. glad you all liked it 👍 i spent lots of time with those photos.
now on to NTX1982's request, the Spyker C8. i dont like this car as much in gt4 as i do with TDU, maybe because they handle differently in the games, and the graphics in tdu are so much better, not to mention that the Spyker in TDU is a convertible! hope you like this one ntx. i also included another aerial shot of Citta Di Aria. enjoy everyone.

thanks nuno! glad you liked them. not a lot of people have seen it unfortunately. oh well. what can i do 
Now for the long overdue update, the Nordschleife series. I hope you guys like this shot, as i've spent lots of time on this update. comments and criticisms are always welcome. enjoy!
One cold, foggy morning, i decided to go for a drive at the 'ring
As corners prepare for the attack (this pic was actually inspired by an old Mercedes Benz advert from my old magazine collection)
up until the sun started to set
(experimental shot using zoom blur while the car approaches an overcrrest jump)
and rain started to fall, then i realized i was screwed

I really love the idea of a foggy morning at the 'Ring and you've carried it off really well with pretty much all of these photos. The 2nd one down looks amazing but is it just me or does the road look really smooth, and the car has no shadow under it? Does GT4 do that with aerial shots?

Great update mate 👍 Love all of them very much
However I would like to suggest a few things for improvement, hope you don't mind
- 3rd shot may use burn tool to increase shadow on the trees. When you look at the 1st two shots, those trees are more realistic because they have great shadow, but the 3rd is comparitively flat.
- 4th shot is awesome with excellent cleanup, but there are polygonal edge on the top of the car, and the rear door line is incorrect. Also you may want to use lighter colour for the door line, I guess it will look more natural overall.

Boy do these shots suck or what?!...
Just kidding, mate!👍
I love that spyker shot, man. The angle and contrast make the car look so cool...
Only the kerb seems somewhat muddy. And those flames, although they don't look particularly realistic, they do look great. Did you do them from scratch? How?
Citta di Aria looks good, specially the mountain sides, but oyu've done much better in scenery shots, J.
The Ring shots all look pretty good, except the one franz mentioned, because precisely the lack of darker areas on the trees. After all, it is the 'Black Forest'.
1st and 2nd shots the clouds look damn realistic. Fantastic, really. I don't have a clue on how youguys manage to get them to look good, clouds in my shots always suck...
The rain shot looks like the rain is polichromatic, which ruins the effect a bit, but still a good shot.
The close up shot of the Evo has the slight problem of the lines being a bit too dark, and the rear door being wrongly edged, as if it only opens the top part of it.
I really like the jumping shot, you made the car look good even with a GT4 rear wing on it. 👍

Cool aaaand... where is the atomic bomb, huh? lol. I like some details of 1st and 3rd, because the general look is similar to a real lighting. It's a shame that fact is emphasizing even more the poor look of all textures.
So my favourite have to be the rear view of the Evo. Ah, I think I've found the atomic bomb, it's the Spyker, right?

Interesting work here lately, the Ring update is cool.
I agree with what others have said, the third shot does need more contrast with the darker areas.
The door lines in the fourth are a bit too dark, nice shot though and the blur in the sixth shot is very unique.
My favourites would have to be the first two and the Evo jumping.
Nice work all around. 👍
