46 & two: The Gallery | Last update October 11 - 400R

[46 & two]

Hey, just joined up and thought I'd share some of my photos!

I have a thing for old school Japanese cars btw 👍

EA Motul Civic

R31 Skyline

EG Civic

Those aren't bad at all, the 3rd shot is well edited with the b/w. Great angle of that car.

One thing, though. They all look a bit similar to each other (apart from the 1st shot), because they almost always show a full car at ground level, about 20 degrees on profile, and all with the car very near the image's edges.
Also, add a bit more focal blur on the shots to add depth of field and make the car stand out more, because GT4 shots with aperture very high tend to look mostly flat.

You should also try to vary a bit on your angles and crop some parts of the car, so there's more diversity.

But good start nevertheless, very good for a beginner. 👍

Well first of all, Welcome to GTP! Enjoy your stay! I like your photos, you definitely have your own unique style. I was going to pick the thumbnails I liked the most but then I realized the only one I didn't pick was the first one So good job for your first shots. I'm looking forward to seeing more updates from you If you have some spare time drop by my gallery and leave a comment.

Awesome composition! Your style can convince people that you're a pro photographer
Now all you need is to learn how change the tone with photoshop to make them look realistic
Welcome to GTP eh 👍

 

[46 & two]

Thanks for the welcome and feedback!
It's always better to get some advice rather than one line comments like "nice pics" or "**** pics"

Beerzgood: Yeah I did notice they are similar, that's probably because when I take pictures of real cars I tend to favor that angle/composition over others! But yeah I've tried different shots for then next update: AE86 and RUF RGT

.*StReeTz*.: I just did!

franz: what do you mean by "changing tone"? Is it what Beerzgood mentioned? About blurring/adding depth? Cheers.

/edit - how do I upload an avatar, as cool as the predefined ones are, I'd like to use my own

Welcome to the world of GT4 here on GTP

I gotta say that this gallery will have a great future, I really like what I see...very cool shots and quite real!! I specially like the Civic set, good choice of cameras and really nice lightning...like its a good shiny sunny day.

Enjoy being here mate, and bring more soon. Try to enter some comps too, show us how good U are:tup:

Welcome to GTPlanet. In order to use a custom avatar, I beleive you have to have a certain number of posts. If you have any other questions, please refer to the FAQ.

As far as your pictures go, you have decent skills. Your third picture is best, in my opinion, but with a little work, all your pics will be great. 👍

 

[46 & two]

oops, pics are below \/ \/ \/ !

 

[46 & two]

AE86

And my favorite:

RUF RGT

I'll add more to each of the series later.

I just love the second to last shot, mainly because of the angle and the color you picked for the car.

 

[franz]

Nice photoshop editing 👍 The style in your first shot I have done so many time, but you nail it in a good way. Slightly motion blur the road may be even better. Both 2nd and 3rd shot are well captured but you may add depth of field to them, such as adding Gaussian blur to the background. Last shot's angle is really sick 👍 The blur part needs improvement that the motion blur layer should be duplicated 10-20 times and merge them into one, then the background edge near the car will look perfect.

 

[tapetape]

Bit late but welcome.

These shots are really good. Hope to see lot's more.

 

[46 & two]

Thanks guys. And I'll try that tip about duplicating the blur layer, cheers 👍

sweet gallery you have here. they all look so sharp and colorfull. i actually dig that last skyline pic with the motion blur on it. i find that all your photos have that battlegear appeal on them. not sure if you've ever played that game, but after i saw your updates, that's what i got reminded of, that or the old initial d posters, but better. the trueno pics are awesome too. never seen that car look so good. i like the frontal shot of that car with the vertical blur on it. it's like a colored version of mine. if you look at my avatar you'll see what i mean. it's actually my very first successful motion blur attempt.
very nice altogether though, only one i dont really like are the rims on the RUF porsche. other than that, i really dig this gallery. awesome work man!

 

[46 & two]

^^ no I haven't played battlegear, thanks for the comments anyway!

Well another update, these photos that have been lying around so I decided to post them up..

[SS Racing]

I think your favorite is mine too.

 

[jgda9rs]

looking good man! i love the bw 510 shot, and the last two skyline pics are looking good as well, specially the last one. the first one is a good one too, except for the bad textures on the car.
