I'd done a few pretty terrible efforts at chopping before but these were the first two I tried on and have put on a website. Looking around the style is quite different to other things I have seen on here but nonetheless here they are for your C&C Please!




Thanks guys!

must say that's not bad for the first attempt. Have seen much worse first chops (including my own hehe)
i like it very much that u didn't overdo the chops ( 9/10 first time chops are trying to do as much as possible, and it looks like garbage), you did some things and tried to do it ok so thumbs up for that
if you want to put new rims on the cars, try to find a donor in the same angle, elseway the rims look flat
on hte second car the rims are in the wrong perspective, and second, have no breaks, and third the whole picture is black and white, but the rims have colour
when u try to darken windows, you shouldn't do it with the lightness frm the hue/saturisation, tis makes the window looks dull. It's better do duplicate the window, play with the brightness/contrast, and then put it on multyply or overlay, and play with the settings untill you like the result. This way u keep the shiny reflections on the window

Thanks a lot for the input especially that about the windows and rims, forgetting brakes was a dumb thing to do.

The pictures took quite some time to load on my computer but the links to tinypic are here:

Very smooth BG change on the first chop.

np, imo it's always better to give some advise, than just say the things that need improvement
