SpeedART- Birthday Update!

[D-Mind]

Nice shots i like the angles!

 

[Speedster502]

Thanks for the comments so far (Not that many people have posted but). Any way the real reason I posted so quickly was that for the past hour or so I have been working on a magazine front cover. At first I thought about doing a British Classic mag or something like that. Once I had sorted the magazine company I set about deciding the picture I was going to use I almost immediatley decided that using some recent pics would be almost stupid. So I decided to use a older pic that wasnt commented on. Here you are then.

Here you go feel free to comment!

Looks awesome, maybe add some more pics on that cover, you know some small thingies on the bottom?

I like the blue NSX, it's a great replication of the Top Gear show. The first shot is real nice.

 

[Speedster502]

Thanks for your comments they are very positive....So far. Any way I have done another Topgear Magazine cover I dont know if you other people from other countries get Topgear mag but I know people in the UK do so here is another one for you TVR fans (And Subaru)



Enjoy. Dont forget who ever gets 100th post gets to do a request of car they would like to see photographed.

Nice new cover! great work

 

[franz]

Nice mag covers 👍 I like the latest one, it has great layouts
however you may consider adding more headlines to fill up the empty spaces
or maybe adding a cropped out car on it to enhance the look
I really encourage people try out mag cover or ad design
even making a simple wallpaper with this month's calender works well for the purpose
so keep it up 👍

Speedster502, I love all your shots, the one with the Viper and the RUF is a stunner. I especially love the one with the Alfa Romeo Spider Duetto with the background/scenery of Citta di Aria... I remember I once took a shot identical to that one, but with a Camaro LeMans car...

 

[Speedster502]

Thanks for all your comments sorry I havent posted any pics in a while its because I havent been able to get on Gt4 or Ps2 recently. But heres one to keep you amused that I did in Photoshop

Enjoy! Remember 100th poster gets a request!

 

[Pebb]

I don't see the point in using real life photos of people in your shots, because they look way out of place.

 

[GT40 MKII]

really cool, i like the second top gear cover good work.

 

[Speedster502]

Right before we get started can I congratulate TVR and Ferrari_Fan winning the request as he got the 100th post. Next are my new update sadly not Topgear related. Here you go enjoy.
First my CCCL entry with another picture too.


Now here is my latest idea. It is to photo graph a car from each of these decades which are 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's and 00's. Lets kick off with the 60's.



Now the 70's



Now the 80's



Now the 90's




Now the 00's




Feel free to comment

To The Junkyard ! with them!! great job with the photos!

 

[Speedster502]

Thanks for your comment on the Volvos as I said I was just mucking around it was intended to look like snchronised drifting but just looks like a lot of Volvos on there way to heaven (Probably hell though). What do you guys think of my 60's,70's,80's,90's and 00's pictures?

 

[Tangled Web]

Nice work Speedster, I really like the Top Gear covers, good job. 👍

Nice work on your recent update, you captured each car well with interesting angles. My fave has to be the Charger, love that car.

"great effort and quality" (+rep)
This post got the +rep

Good looking gallery although the big black signature ruins most of the pictures (pretty much every one you put that into).

You could probably use a little training on the motion blur and focus of the pictures but your angles and final products are all great.

I loved the "through the decades" post for many reasons but specifically it was the begining and end shots.
I think it would have been super cool if you had gone with all american cars for the entire post.

None the less, great looking update.
Well done.
(the +rep is well earned)

Thanks for your comments and I agree with the black signatures as they were a trial and obviously dont work to the effect that I wanted so next time they wont be there. Thanks for the reputation as well.

No problem, I'm glad you took the comments in a contructive manner. 👍
Also, no big deal with the reputation... A few things people forget are that giving reputation doesn't lower your own, it certainly is meant to be given out, and most importantly, contributions to the photo forum can be quality post just like contributions to any other forum.

And btw, I'm glad to see you agree about the signature.
But so you know, even if the sig looked good I would still complain because I hate to see a good desktop background go to waste because an artist insist on signing the work.

Any way, great work, keep it up.

 

[.*StReeTz*.]

Mustang shots are looking good man.

 

[GT40 MKII]

like the mustang and charger shots keep it up
heres a little tip i was given by generalglorious when uploading your pics to imageshack, click the "remove size/resolution bar" and it'll clean up your pics greatly

 

[alexwrc]

Some of your shots could be pretty standard. I always recommend the photographic tutorials posted in the forum.

I also like the magazine covers. The tittles are very cool... "More civilised than what? A missile?"

The last DB9 angle is great, but it needs much more editting.

You know I am rubbish at editting and also I cant find any tutorials posted any where or am I being blind?
EDIT: Duh yeh sorry found them
Also just to say I am trying really hard now to please you guys and am hoping that there will be a big improvement with my next buch which includes TVRandFerrari_Fans request.

 

[Driftfreak_88]

love the charger and mustang pics. http://img258.imageshack.us/my.php?image=img0023copy3bi.jpg especially that

 

[Speedster502]

Thanks you very much for your mixed review of my "Through the Decades" post.
Right then after my "Disater" as many have called them. I have started a fresh (No not from the beginning again) using the Photomode tutorials on GTPlanet (These are excellent!👍) only on phtotmode maybe after the next 2 bunchs I will start on the photoshop bits and bobs. But for now I have a mix and match of diffrent cars. Enjoy!
"Holden Monaro Rally"




Now there is two shots which I am not sure which is best I will post them both up for you and please tell me which you think is the best.
Comparison 1

Comparison 2

Mistsubishi Evolution 8 MR (Fuji Speedway 2005)






Here are two Abstract shots (Of Mitsubishi)


Now I dont want to post all of my most recent Photo session at once so the Nissan Motful 350Z, Ford RS200 and Nissan Primera will be in the next update.
But I couldnt not do this update without including TVRandFerrari_Fans request which was to photograph a TVR V8S (Most Jagged car in history)





All comments are welcome, Enjoy!!!

 

[Pebb]

I love the last shot of the V8S, but I had to give you a challenge, however I have seen far worst jagged edge cars.

 

[Speedster502]

I love the last shot of the V8S, but I had to give you a challenge, however I have seen far worst jagged edge cars. Anyway please visit my GT4 and maybe my combined TDU and PGR3 gallery, which has a link to it in my signature.

Thanks it really was a challenge however I really enjoyed the challenge so much the car is a beauty to drive. There will not be any updates tommorrow because I am going somewhere very intresting . Maybe an update on Sunday but not sure.

 

[D-Mind]

Love those holden shots. Sweet abstract shots too

 

[Kent]

Excellent update worthy of rep ("must spread some around before giving to...")
That said, I'm not a fan of spectators or abstracts but even those shots look great. 👍
Just keep on doing what you do man. The gallery and updates look great, the quantity of good shots is impressive and the themes (such as monaro rally) are great.

 

[jgda9rs]

i agree. the overhead view of the evo 8 has to be my favorite. great work!

 

[.*StReeTz*.]

The Holden shots are nice. I like the contrast between the car and the track. Mainly because the car is a vibrant red. Great update!
