nice pics mate




+ rep for this update.






i'm feeling this update. well, not a big fan of the buick or whatever it is, but i like the fact that it looks like it didn't come from gt4. more like a screencap from TOCA 3. i guess it could use a little diffuse glow on the side of the body where the waterspray is. but the sharpen worked out good. specially on the trees further back. i like how i can actually read the billboard too. cant remember how many times i had to look at it the other day when i was scavenging for my entry at the photomode tournament round 2. i love the artistic shots out of the whole update though. i love the deep red color of the car ! it looks so metallic. it suits the dark background of the whole picture.i specially love the texture of the pavement on the 2nd picture. it's amazing! it's like something from a movie. i cant believe it's from gt4 at first. before i forget, i have to say good work on the clean up on the crx. i wish i could clean up grey colors like you did. i hate grey for photomode. it somehow doesnt work well with me, i dont know why. how high was your smudge tool set to ? the rims look so good too. i love how the shape of the center cap shows itself. whatelse can i say? great work all together.

Thanks dude, always like to get loong, constructive comments. 👍

Umm, i changed the opacity of the smudge tool depending on where and how much i used it, i also used burn and dodge tools, i.e i brightened the spokes on the rim, and then darkened the holes between the spokes.

For the grey parts, i just umm... smudged them. Opacity at 20-40 and size at 10-20, not really sure...

And for the "forest" in the backround i used dodge tool, just coloured some parts brighter then the other to give it some depth, since GT4 trees are kinda flat.

color wise, its good. but, im suprised you didnt clean up the bumper and i really dont like the cropping.

 

[HiQQory]

I did clean it Maybe just not enough for you...

And the pic sitn supposed to be techincally good, just i took some pic quickly for practice...

 

[[empty space]]

its not something i usually edit (im too lazy ) but, what i noticed is theres still some weird lines under the turn light and thees still some jaggies on the grill.

 

[.*StReeTz*.]

They aren't bad in my opinion. The fact that you are trying different things is great. You will never learn anything if you just stay within your comfort zone. Keep up the hard work 👍

'Theres no grill in the picture?
Your too damn nit-picking Lol , No, lol j/k good to get something constructive. 👍

 

[Greycap]

Now THAT is quality, a really great shot that somehow reminds me of the old intro video of Gran Turismo. First class! 👍

[HiQQory]

Thank you!

Phew, some more... A weeks holiday so expect a looot of updates.

 

[[empty space]]

interesting. on the first one, you probably should have either tryed to bring out the spoon badge more or focused on the front wheel well.

 

[D-Mind]

The "and a rim" in your title appealed to me. I really like the 2nd shot in the lancia update. Nice blur on the rim 👍

 

[Moglet]

Wow, that top down Delta shot is brilliant work, the high contrast look lends it a very professional edge. That entire update is great too.

I'm not so keen on the Spoon update though, the movement blur looks a bit odd IMO.

 

[HiQQory]

Lol, no-one likes the spoon, but i do, and tahts why i took it.

The rim is from a trueno SS, ofcourser not stock one, but tahts what it was on originally before i erased the car from the pic. Its one of those three-spoke rims... Yellow one, with big shiny lip.

 

[HiQQory]

Unusual angles FTW!

Guess the car! (Don´t look at the filename...)

 

[Speedster502]

Toyota Corrola A86......I think.

 

[jgda9rs]

hmm, that spoon update is quite interesting. however, that roof cam on the 86 looks really good. i liuke how the surroundings turned out on that photo. the colors, the tone, the lights all look great. keep it up!

 

[D-Mind]

Hehe, there aren't a lot of cars with cf hoods and pup up lights, now are there
Nice shot, loving the sharpness.

 

[HiQQory]

Damn you noobs, you should´ve looked at the file name, it was supposed to trick you

Toyota Corolla AE86 "Hachi Roku" Suichi Shigeno Version ´00.

Im really happy with the wuality of the picture, i didnt have to clean up anything, just adjust brightness/contrast and hue/saturation. 👍

And the first car ive seen from that angle. 👍

When you said dont look at the file name then it was reverse pscology? Any way I aint that thick to need to look at the file name there isnt many white cars with carbon fibre bonnets is there?

 

[HiQQory]

Noo, there isnt.

And yes reverse psychology.

 

[HiQQory]

Yay, my grey Levin with stock suspension and other goodies!

 

[jgda9rs]

Itsuki's car that thing rocks. i have one in my garage fully tuned. awesome drift car.

 

[HiQQory]

Itsuki as in Initial-D? If it is, they arent the same, mines grey, his is white and i have stock suspension, lol, but i do have a turbo...

Edit, Fock, itsuki is the stupid wannabe-racer? Lolmao, mines better then his, his car is AE85 (I believe).

 

[HiQQory]

The bestest colour for a Skyline GT-R.

 

[jgda9rs]

i dont know about the red, but i really like the picture

 

[.*StReeTz*.]

For a shot that zoomed in, it is surprisingly clean. Good work 👍

Paintshop can do wonders

And i like the colour. Unusual colours FTW!👍

 

[HiQQory]

WTF?!?!

Heres a tip: Buy a Lancer, tune it to 400 hp and nitrous. Set nitrous to 100 and blast down the hill on seattle. Thats what happens^

 

[jgda9rs]

oh my god! you're nuts. that thing is like up the sky now.it would be nice if PD had detailed the undercarriages of the cars in the game. not too sure about the blur of the pic, seems a bit too much for me, but then again it gives it a certain appeal...quite interesting.
