How did I do?

I did this for a co-worker's son...my first time trying to do something like this. How does it look? I wanted to add some pizzazz...but not sure where to start.:)

looks cool! how did you do that? sorry kinda photo editing retarded right now I've forgotten how to do everything like that since I havent had any inspiration to take any more pics with my s2 IS and I'm waiting to get an XT so I haven't edited pictures!

Lots and Lots of black paint! :)

That's pretty good!

photosguy would approve, I know it.

[LeesaB]

I think you did good..first time?

[victoria]

Thanks for the comments....:)

Honestly I have never done this before. I have cloned and painted but never to this extent. I thought it looked pretty good...but what I see is one thing and others see many things that could be improved upon.

Thanks!

Nice work pp'ing this shot. It does look good.

Nice work on cutting it out, but the background needs something to give a feeling of depth? You know what I usually use. Try that, or come up with something else & show us the results.

That is the pizzazz I was talking about! Yep...needs that, but I have been having a bit of trouble in that department.

Step #3:
Need to remove a background from something? (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=82876)

rather than a gradient, maybe use a semi transparent HONDA or S2000 logo in the background. almost like the Z28 PhotosGuy posted above.

imho, I dont think the gradient will look good on a modern car like this
