Solo's Gallery (UD 6/3) PMT3 R2 rejects, Mustang (criticisms wanted!)

Very nice shots lately! (I know I'll keep saying that , oh well.)

The Brera shots are great, and so are these ones as well. I think I like the Golf R shots the most. Your CCCL shot is probably my favorite of the bunch, there's something with that one that attracts me. And one thing more, you were a fellow GIMP user, right? I just want to highlight how nice it is to see you experiment with the colour toning options. Your old shots could be a bit boring seeing how most of them were very red-ish when it came to the colours (for example your "Uphill" entry). That wasn't a bad thing, but it's nice to see greater variation. Your CCCL entry is in my opnion your best entry into anything so far. It's due for you to have a win soon.
Your improvements are getting greater and greater.

That last shot will go through, I'll be surprised if it doesn't. it's perfect. Though I'm not to fond of some of the GTR shots. Maybe just me. The Mini shots are great though. 👍

Thanks I hope it does get somewhere as I really want to get comp win soon! I see they may be a bit too bright on the Monza track. Thanks

Fantastic lighting mate!

thank you!

Hey! I love the longer posts and in depth comments 👍

I do still use Gimp yes. I have been able to use it better now on my new Macbook as it has a much better screen than the PC I used before so I think I can get the colours more accurately edited I also realised as you said that my shots used to be too red tone heavy!

I hope it does get somewhere. I really want a first comp win to add to my PMC tournament win! Thanks for the comment Fishy

Nice cccl shot 👍

Also liking #4 and #12, the simple compositions that breath much life

 

[matt-mtb]

You have really put the gauntlet down for the competitions and for the DLC shots. Now lets see if I can do the same.

 

[grrlpurple]

Great set. Love the mood in that first Golf R shot

Great CCCL entry dude. Those DLC cars shots ain't no bad either.👍

And it looks like its time for another update finally! Been on holiday and busy revising the past little while, felt a little rusty shooting and editing but I will get back with time Just a small set for now, but I have a few more in the pipeline to be up over the next few days so keep tuned!









Thanks to you all for your views and comments, please give criticisms I want to learn what you all like!

Nice idea with the Light to capture the reflection

 

[matt-mtb]

Very nice update there. I'm not a fan of the skyline but that looks nice. Good luck with exams.

[ShaolinMasta]

Awesome gallery !!!
Amazing shots ! 👍👍👍

 

[Kyve29]

Ouaou Evora and Atenza are Brilliant
All the gallery is gorgeous 👍

 

[SMfan]

Great quality Solo!👍
Critisism: mabe juuust a bit too much red/pink tones.And that's it. But it's more of a like/dislike thing than a real problem or sumn.
Once more - great quality - it's the main thing.

 

[Nato_777]

Hope you had a great holiday, it certainly didn't do your GT5 photography any harm, these are all up to the usual Soloracer (high) standard. Fantastic! 👍

 

[Primus Ortus]

Solo! Great shots bro. Like Nato - I hope you had a great holiday.

 

[matt-mtb]

Fiat 500










Jaguar XK-R















Thanks for looking again everyone
These again are shots for the Zero Cup
Please leave C&C

Great shots, but as a set, you might want to vary your angles a bit more. All of them are low. The flare looks good in most. Do you know that when it isn't there, how to get it? I switched to extreme monochomatic and back, so it was gone. But then when I switched back I couldn't get the flare to appear anymore.

 

[ShaolinMasta]

Bravo !
Very nice Jag and Fiat shots
Lovely tones in the set 👍

 

[matt-mtb]

WOW them 500 shots are amazing. That bloom effect is effective. BUT, what the hell were you thinking with that Jaguar. Don't ever put spoilers on XKR's, it just ruins the line of the car. Nice pictures but that aero package is hideous.

Thanks Ah yes! What is happening to me My angles used to be adventurous but as you point out here they are so boring! Thank you for pointing that out! No sorry I don't, I only found out about it through Gtuned's guide.

Bravo !

Thanks, The wing set was part of the job brief for Warrius, I quite like it, I really like the Jag race cars. I see where you are coming from though with it, I wish PD gave us some better wings!

 

[sems4arsenal]

Wow That Flare looks Great ,Fantastic set Solo

 

[SVX]

Really liking the third to last shot of the Jag set 👍

 

[Solo]

Wow That Flare looks Great ,Fantastic set Solo

Thanks, I'm still not sold on its effect but I will get used to it.

Really liking the third to last shot of the Jag set 👍

That's a lot of shots there :

 

[SlipZtrEm]

I'll echo Sej's comment, Solo, but I say it because I'm just as guilty of sticking to the same basic angles, if not more so. It's hard to argue with low angles - they just make the car look so aggressive and intimidating! Even when it's a little panda-coloured Fiat

That said, even if they are all low angles, they're still pulled off very nicely, and I like your use of the flare effect. Great work 👍
