My first time PShoping my car... (newb)

[DanGillan]

I just spent like 1/2 an hour using that online tutorial shit in the sticky, and came up with this. please critique me and give suggestions, but keep in mind, I wasnt trying to do this perfect, just trying things out. Looking at it now, I hate the stance, but anyway, Tell me what you think!

BEFORE: (ignore f'd up pavement)


AFTER:

You're off to a good start, not a big fan of the rims but thats just my opinion.
Try rotating one of the rims so it doesn't look like its been photoshopped.

[DanGillan]

yea, I just picked the first set of decent rims I saw from a similar angle, they're ok, I wouldnt buy em! thanks for the tip on rotating, I didn't realize that, good call. thanks,

If you can go to the image> adjust> brightness and contrast to make it less shiny against the darker image.

[DanGillan]

yea, i tried that, it only went brighter for some reason, ill try more again next time, thanks!

[slammed_e30]

looks good for first time, just work on the realism factor (wheel levels).

[DanGillan]

haha yea, good point. the more I look at it, the more un-realistic it looks. thanks for the tip!

[BrianF 88iS]

On the front wheel, it looks like is sticking out a little, so see if you change the perpective by going Edit>Free Transform and>skew perspective and distort.
Make it looks just a little titled to the left.

Get rid of the ghetto front tire tuck, and change the rims... maybe some BBS LMs.

[DanGillan]

how about this one...

[KenC]

how about this one...

The car looks a bit out of proportion... or maybe it's just that you're rollin' on a 14 in the front and 12 in the rear.

In all seriousness, you're making progress. At least you're trying.

[DanGillan]

haha yea, Im workin on fixin the rear wheel now
its f'd

[kidrobot]

Second ones a lot better, your rim
proportion is all screwed up in my opinion though.
They're also not centered in the tire, if you look. Use
Ctrl + the Direction Button to move an entire layer
set, or select an area and Ctr+Dir to move just a
piece. Btw, that is a lot better than my first attempt
years ago, but I guess technology was pretty bad
too.....

i did some more stuff... *see sig* tell me what you think!
