Nice adwork shot.
Nothing very special about it for me but decent stock shot.

I've seen that srs somewhere before.

Too much photoshopping I think. The white band at the top just makes it look unnatural.

Shrimp

The only photoshopping done was.. cut the windscreen out, and added contrast.

mtracey

I like the conversion. very clean and simple lines

Roen

Besides if it's an ad type shot it's going to have to have space for text and details, works well.

Valentia

Technically competent but soulless me thinks. I suppose it passes the time

By "added contrast", do you mean that you burned and dodged the hell out of the top half until it got to where it is?

Because that line at the top looks completely manufactured and ruins the image. I get what you were going for, but it didn't work.

Shrimp

forgot one thing.. added the gradient at the top.. but i thought that'd be obvious enough..

personally i think the image is far too grey ,if the grey plastic was a different colour or the top light was a sandy colour ,it would add something basic.

Doesnt do it for me either, Technically or Artistically.

It would be a great idea if the dash was actually nice to look at, say an old Merc or some other classic, but its basically grey plastic.

Ah, we have a new version I see. Its better, but I still think the gradient ruins it. The grey is still far too dark. If you really want the gradient I'd suggest using white and a tone of grey that is practically white, just a shade off.

Pic hasnt changed.
(I know this cause I saved the pic earlier by accident ;p)

Wow. Monitors really matter.


I was in work earlier, now im home. Cheap-ass 16 inch versus high quality 19 inch. When I first saw it at home the gradient looked much smoother and there were details I hadn't seen. The gradient still sucks though
