Something different...

I'm not even sure this is the right place for this, but hey, we have model cars and model airplanes threads, how 'bout model spaceships? Playing with that darned addictive DIY lightbox some more and wanted to try something different. I kind of liked how these were going. These are still works in progress (about two hours photoshop total), I guess I'm just wondering if the idea's worth the effort and electricity bill, or if I should just move on. C & C always welcome, thanks for looking!

Space 1999 Eagle Transporter, 12 inch diecast model shot in the DIY lightbox, combined with some ps, and some moon shots I took last year.

Those look pretty good! But I think it's WAY too clean!

I don't know why it should take that long? I shot something like that in camera on film w/double exposures & it took about the same amount of time. This may help:
Video tutorial on using the Extract Filter, Alpha Channels, Layer Masks using Selections, using Levels to adjust the Mask, & Blur Tool on the Mask edges.

Thanks Frank! The ships have to be brand new at some point right, I should've added a window sticker and dealer plates. Just kidding, I just hadn't gotten around to photoshopping weathering yet (weathering...in space

That is probably the best tutorial I've ever seen on the use of the Extract tool!

i think you need more directional light.
