Posters from my Pix
Recently I took a few pics of some fancy cars borrowed from a local dealership, well it turns out they rather liked the images so they asked for a few poster/adverts, so after a bit of tweeking in Psp here is the before and after.

All comments welcome

The before's



And the after's

Ok, I'll try.

Porsche:
Cloning to tidy up mistakes (lamppost reflections, or Wheel straightening)
Selective colour using layers and eraser
Gradient blue to sky and darken
foreground Grad black & Blur
3 spot lights highlighting car
Contrast fiddle
then added text

The GT is basically the same with more cloning involved especially on the tarmac, and on that I did not add any colour at all

The Porsche now looks even more stunning - excellent job on that one particularly. Well done
I too would like to know the process you used on them if possible (please )

Very professional looking and a definate improvement over the vanilla versions.

I seem to remember having something like that on my wall when I was about 11!

Hope you got some publicity at least for them.

Very professional looking - have a very moody atmosphere with the vignetting effect and the so subtle desaturation of the background that I hardly noticed it.

Well done - Im sure their very satisfied with the results aswell

Excellent m8, they look stunning

The porkka is the winner there, i think it's because the crest on the wheels is upright now

I hope you've done the image with your name and company on
