and this is what I have done to it

the photos themself was taken on the 10d at iso 800, like all car shows the lighting is crap and it's hard to get a good shot. I have reduced the noise abit, but then where needed I have added noise, in hopes to match the area around it.

enjoy

You've worn out a mouse on that job. Loads of work I can see - eg the Ferrari floor mat.
It breaks a big rule though --unfortunately-- the art of PP is in making it invisible and believable to the eye imho.

Impressive PP work, but the biggest thing that stands out to me is that the car colour doesn't have a punch. Good stuff!

Nice work. I love 612's.

Looks pretty nice. The only problem I have is it looks a tad on the dark side.

Nice work but to me the color lost it's pop as well... maybe because all the indoor lighting refelctions are gone. The paint looks very unnatural now.

the *room* the car is in looks like a 3D render

[Caster]

For tinting the window of the cars, lower the opacity of the black layer so that way it is more opaque to bring a more round look, right now it is very flat, while the rest of the car has reflections, the windows dont. The 3D rendered walls don't look as real either, might want to fix those, as well as the reflections and color of the car. Looking good though...

thanks all for the comments. I must admit when I compared the colour of the car orginal something was lacking. The total black windscreen wasn't a good idea and I have changed that slightly.

the background is going to be abit harder. since I created it from strach it's bound to have that cg look to it, just need to make some changes to make it look more real.

when I have finished I will post an update
