Artistic Drifting is such a nice idea, yet i need to get better photos than i have now..


Final and Only Entry?


Inverse Chiarscuro much?

 

[franz]

Very sexy ATP 👍

 

[Beerz]

It does look pretty good, loving the sky and the snow texture on that one.

It would be a pretty sick shot with a fading opacity curved blur.

 

[AOS-]

it's an old shot, kicked up the contrast as i know many of you seem to do that and that leads to your victories..

 

[suzq044]

[jgda9rs]

this is why i left the photomode scene. it's just so dead it's not even funny.

 

[AOS-]

i never liked working any images until it looks like that, nor have i seen anything appealing about those, hard edges and colors.. Why'd you do it though? What makes it so appealing?

 

[ceiling_fan]

Whoa, I wasn't aware of this thread's existence. I'll work on something.

I'm pretty sure everyone who posted in this thread (excluding LdS) wasn't aware of this thread

honestly.. being a smart-ass. lol

edit - fixed the entry - smoothed it out some looks a little better. It would probably look pretty trippy with 3D glasses.. lol

Final Entry
​

Swiss Very good entry, but if only it had a little bit of smoke…

Muzz Very good also, the RX-7 gives a really cool mood to the shot, but I feel that the smoke is a little bit too much exaggerated, though.

Final Entry
​

Swiss Very good entry, but if only it had a little bit of smoke…

I didn't even think to add smoke. I think i might work on that.

btw, very nice entry LdS. I really like how you "motion blurred" everything but the clouds. The composition is great!

Thanks guys! 👍

Muzz Very good also, the RX-7 gives a really cool mood to the shot, but I feel that the smoke is a little bit too much exaggerated, though.

I guess the smoke was done too much, I was trying to go for that "real smoke" like drift that is associated with drifting..... just look at this picture for example:

 

[Swiss Legend]

I added a bit of smoke to my drift. Any thoughts? It was my first real attempt.

[suzq044]

you don't see much smoke from the front wheels unless it is awd and/or doing an inertial drift [little to no countersteer, because it's the inertia doing the work]. Add smoke to the rear tire, and remove some from the front, and it will look more realistic, imo. I have put links on my original post to the original, brightness adjustment, and smoke additions as examples, for the smoke pattern i used on my "Acid Drift", just desaturate the image. It's all airbrushed, just a big fluffy white poof of tiresmoke.

 

[Swiss Legend]

whoa, the version with the smoke added is amazing. I will definitely work on mine some more. I agree with you. Thanks for sharing that with me.
