First thing that I noted was that the purple makes it look wayyyy out of place on that bg, but it does look good if you ignore the bg lol.

It looks good, but very toony expecialy for this kind of background. Studio shot would look great I think.
Hood reflections are too strong, rear view mirror is very toony and side window looks too white imo. Other than that great job, for the first time I'm impresed too .
Can I get the windshield donor?

Thanks for the comments guys. The windows and the wheels were taken from the car that was originally on the background... Yes, I know... how lazy of me lol But all of the van's body has been brushed.
Igor, PM sent with link to windscreen donor.

Very nice first full brush. The only thing that is buggin me is the brightness of the side window. Too bright compared to the windshield. What do you think about messing with the artistic filters in the menu to create a painted effect for the background? I think that would look cool, Or the studio background sounds cool too. Good job.
Oh btw Ahmed, Rebels a girl. Just letting ya know.

Nice work so far Raven.
Yeah I agree that it doesnt fit with the BG.
Chops with a large amount of brushing like this tend to suffer from what I call mixed reality.
For me, if I intend to go this far I usually brush everything or at least retouch any/all c & p items to appear brushed. Then I either go with a brushed BG or do some kind of an abstract or illustration type panel layout to keep things uniform.
I would love to see the Joker version popping out from a CGI Batman themed comic book panel.
I would also suggest that you go with a brushed gradient on the glass and maybe do a silhouette interior. The other white areas (head lights, fogs and kannard ?) seriously need some adjustment. They are way too bright.

Thanks again for the comments guys. Everything has been noted down and will be put to use when I get time.
The side window and the windscreen are exactely how they should be from when I stole them off the donor of the background... Donor

Understood, but the issue is not with them matching the BG, they dont match with the lighting on the car. Have a look at the donor car. When I mentioned it doesnt fit with the BG I was addressing the mixed reality aspect of your brushed body against the photo.
