Perfect Balance's Gallery (Update: LIME GREEN Lowrider Dodge Ram /Please look.)

Really cool PB, you should be proud now. :)
 
Thanks sejtur and Vonie. I don't know when I'll be doin another update, but keep the comments coming.
 
Dang you PB! 👍 Very nice shot! How long does it take you to make those shots???

Well, once you know how to do it, you can do it really fast, That last shot took me only about 5 min to do. Thanks!
 
Yeah, the more comfortable you get doing a certain thing in PS, the quicker you go. Multi-car shots take nearly no time for me (when I don't fudge the cars' placements), and when I did the photoshopped BMW M5 / 120 hybrid for the comp last month, it took a lot less time than the first hybrid car I tried.

That being said... wow PB, I'm shocked how well the moving phototravel shots came out. Very, very nice. And don't downplay the multi-car shot either; it may be a fairly small job in the face of some of the other ones out there, but it's a clean mod nonetheless. The Accord just *can't* look bad, such a nice car.

Awesome 👍
 
Thanks slip! I've been trying to make the radial blur work right on wheels that arn't 90* to the camera, and I just got an idea, but I'll try it tommorow. I'm thinking to make the radial blur into a regular circle, then get the free resize thing and squish it to make the blur go in an oval instead of just doing a regular round radial blur inside a oval. I don't know if you know what I mean, but I got it in my head.
 
Heres another shot of the bmw, again, the wheels are messed up, but as I said in my last post, I got an idea, and If it works, I'll be able to have perfectly Radial blurred wheels at an angle.
EDIT: Crap, I screwed up on the sig, must have forgot to scroll up, and (crap again) I forgot to tint the windows, so just disregard those 2 thing.):ouch::dunce::indiff:

 
Yep, I do. I think that was actually discussed a while back when Div first did one, I think 440 might've mentioned the idea of changing the shape of the wheel to apply the filter, then moving it back. I could be wrong, of course.

Either way, you've got something solid already!
 
I am tempted to come out of my Photomode screens making break, to try this out for myself.
 
Damn you're getting good at the moving phototravel shots.

I like the two car Accord shot as well, nice angle and the sky looks great, real autumnal reds.

Scaff I bet your thinking why don't Balance ever take one bad photomode screen lol.

Thanks man! I think it's because I don't post the bad ones.:)

Thanks scaff and slip!
 
What is up my brother! I am definitely a white guy. Anyways, This whole moving phototravel thing is a very good idea. I don't have time to try it, so I'll let you do your thing. The first moving Accord R is a really neat photo; the colors work really well together. The first CSL pic is awesome, all except the back rim, like you said.

I don't know if I just studied the second CSL with a more scrutinizing eye or what, but I noticed a bunch of mess-ups. I know you did a little layering and cutting and deleting, but you cut too far away from the body of the car. There is a very bold, bright, unblurred line left over from you first layer running around the rear of the car, especially. Second, the rims look a little funny, as you said. No biggy. I realized why you "tint" the windows: so you don't have to worry about the veiw through the windows being unblurred. Good thinking.

That cut line is definitely the most obvious problem, so next time zoom in further so you can get that line a little closer. You still put forth a better effort than I could manage, good job.
 
Yeah, I saw the unblurred part, I did that pic as fast as I could because I wanted to go to sleep, it was 2 am when I did it, so I really didn't take time in it.
 
It looks great, the only flaw is the still outline of the car. But otherwise it looks good. 👍

Check out my latest update, I think it's one of my best. :)

Hey, here's Something I was working on, I know the cars are really close together, but I couldn't make them farther on phototravel, and when I stuck them on one pic, I had to make the textures on the road line up with the pic I was posting them on.
But whatever, I'll just keep getting better.

could you do requests when you perfect your method?
 
I think I could, but I would probably make all the pics totally wrong.
 
That looks good, it is very crisp and clear. Good job.
 
Wow man that silvi is lookin hella nice, I don't have one. :crazy:
But great ps work for sure! 👍
 
Thanks Guys, I'm not sure what I will I will do next, maybe I'll just do one of my regular updates next.
 
I don't see why your complaining about the car placement. This picture would look good two ways: if the cars were strung out with maybe a whole car length in between. That way the last car would be much further in the background while still being visible. It would fill the photo better. The other way that would look good is to leave it the way it is. Having the cars very close accentuates the fact that they are closely related to each other in the Nissan family. It immediately conveys the "past and present" message, where as if the cars were strung out, it would take a little longer for the eye to follow the line back and say "Hey, they get older as they go back. They go back in time!" Maybe you should do another version of this pic with the cars strung out to see how it looks.

Just realized that the two 240s are reversed in placement to go along with the "back in time" thing. But that's what you were going for, right?

Thanks!
I don't know if I will do it the way you said, I really don't feel like it. (I have no inspiration)
And theres only one 240 in that pic, if you meant the third car, then thats from like '93 ( I think) in the '90-'95 Dealer, while the 240sx is in the newest dealer as a '95
 
thats excellent perfectbalance. that pic looks great. my first attempt sucked so i havent tried at doing it again, but seeing ours has kinda given me some inspiration.
 
OK, I have finnaly perfected my method, Check out the calipers.

nice nice, calipers look good, but check the top of the front tire, its standing still, good work though 👍
