JG's Art Studio - 370Z On Nordschleife! [15-08082011]

[GfxJG]

Yeah, my fave too TBH. Also, I would have a photoshoot of the Premium Ford GT at night at La Sarthe up now, but replays never save night time, only daytime. Which is the most idiotic thing in the history of GT5. Almost.

 

[Onboy123]

Really? Because I've got a replay on that track online and it does show night time…and what's the story behind the colour?

 

[GfxJG]

Lol. It all started out when I lived in England, in November 2005, just before I moved here. My best friend was pretty devastated about me moving, and so was I. The last time we were together before my move, we were playing NFS: Most Wanted. I let her (Don't ask, I've just always had an easier time talking to/being friends with girls) pick the colour of my newest acquisition, the Supra. She picked gold and red flame vinyls. We raped 3 blacklist members that evening, #7-#5 IIRC. 3 years later, I found my NFS:MW again, and raped the rest with said Supra. So really, it's a nostalgic colour for me. especially on Supra's.

 

[Onboy123]

Wow…that's quite a nice little story to back up quite a nice car…I just picked red cuz I didn't like the blue it came with and because I thought hellfire red looked quite cool…

 

[GfxJG]

Lol. I think the colour is called Olympic Gold Metallic, or something along those lines. The closest to the original gold I could find.

 

[Onboy123]

Would the beige colour you get from a Merc SLS be a closer match?

 

[GfxJG]

Nope. I think I tried like 20 different gold like colours... This is the best =P

 

[GfxJG]

Aight. Got the Ford GT night replay working. Will be up tomorrow when I get home from this goddamn family picnic (I really cannot be bothered >.<)

 

[ceiling_fan]

That first Supra pic is very good!

 

[ashes619]

Great job.

 

[GfxJG]

Thanks guys ;D GT pics will be up later tonight...

 

[GfxJG]

And a series of pics of where I managed to spin out the GT... Twice... IN THE EXACT SAME SPOT BOTH LAPS.

I aplogize the lower-than-usual editing quality, but Photoshop and Lightroom couldn't quite agree on how much sharpening they wanted to do... and I'm too lazy to redo it =P

 

[Onboy123]

Wow, they really do look good, but how do you get the brakes to glow like that?!?!? They look sooooooo coooooooooooooollll

 

[GfxJG]

The car does it by itself, the heat of friction from braking makes them glow. Sometimes, GT5 impresses me with the details.

 

[GfxJG]

Which of these is best? I need entries for the photomode comps =P

 

[20832]

The second last one!

I love the angle where this photo was shot from! Very original!

Nice set, better than the GT - Set

 

[NBDESIGNZ]

nice job with the 908

 

[GfxJG]

Lol, and the actual 908 shots are from Feb/March. They're just edited today XD

 

[GfxJG]

Can you tell I'm bored tonight?

 

[20832]

The last shot is amazing!
Nice Setz JG

 

[GfxJG]

It's almost a shame I can't get Lightroom to do exactly as I want yet; I have plenty of editing ideas, just can't execute them properly...

 

[Jacob]

Love the 908 ones, the 2nd and 4th shots are magnificent. Great work.

 

[ashes619]

Nice lot of pictures again. 👍

 

[FosterG]

Love the 908 shots, and it is my favorite LM car too.

 

[Cano]

why tone down the colors in such a vibrant car as the Peugeot?

And the first rally pic gets me the most.

Because exactly that: I was too vibrant IMO.

 

[GfxJG]

So... What kind of pics do people wanna see next?

 

[Onboy123]

Hmmm&#8230;try a HKS CT230R (Just cuz I love mine )

 

[Primus Ortus]

Nice Rally set JG. I also liked the close-up of your 908. Well done.

 

[Pebb]

I love the last shot, because of the composition.
