very Cute!

Icame back to this entry because its so cute and if you use a large soft black brush on the roof of the car to add more shading then the roof looks more rounded first selct the roof tho so you dont have to erase all arround

Thanx a lot coming back was the best way to compliment some1s work....

I made a lil change with the roof hope it's fine now.. :P

looks more rounded now and its still very cute, it made me think about toycars that kids make from tin cans in poor countries

This is a pretty good looking piece of work, I like your creativity and color choices. I think you might want to check the perspective though. Try using the free transform/skew tool. I'm going to hold my vote for the time being. Great effort, try adjusting the perspective a little, I believe that will put it over the top.

Hi author nice idea.
Just a few suggestions.

I think im missing out some shadows.
The "tires" should also cast a shadow onto the vehicle.
Same for the things wich are standing at the front of the vehicle.

I also think the tires wich are on the back side ( photowise; aka the side we dont see ) should be placed more to the front. If you draw the lines you can easely messure out where it should be placed.

Also the reflection could use some work. The tires reflection of the tires wich are on the back side ( photowise; aka the side we dont see ) should be touching the real ones.

to be continued

To do this reflection. You could simply cut the image into a few pieces, use free transform with all the options aviable, to make it look right. The side we as the viewers see, can be one piece, as long as there is no depth. So thepart where u are looking into the vehicle should be another piece, and transformed again. Then you can place them together to make it look good.

It's a pretty difficult task to get it perfect.

I hope it helped you make this image even better.

Good luck.

Thank you all for the valuable comments... they did help me learn a few new things...
i tried making all the changes possible.. hope it's fine now
do let me know if it still needs some change cheers

Cute is right....I just have a (hopefully) helpful criticism.
The perspective issues are being created by the floor being at a different angle than the car. The car persp. is actually 'shallow' while the floor is 'deep'.

If you draw a straight line from the close rear wheel to the same spot on the far rear wheel, then compare it with the line of the floor board you will see what I mean. The floor can be adjusted by either using the perspective transform tool, or by simply squashing it with the transform tool... You know which one is best once you try each....

I hope you take this only as a positive comment and not anything negative.


Here's a pic of that may explain it better....hope I'm not breaking any rules with this.... it just helps explain it better than words..

cheers

Your (hopefully) helpful criticism was actually (very) helpful... lol...
Thanx for not only commenting but also taking the time to edit n show me where i went wrong.. I've made the changes, hope it's better now

It just keeps looking better and better

Thanx a lot!!!

The perspective is looking way better.

Looks much more grounded now.... more than happy to help.
The pic I added saved me a thousand words...hahaha.

It does, however, look a bit floaty with the reflection slightly off. May I suggest you move the reflection just up and to the right a tad... it's only a matter of pixels, but it may help; and maybe experiment with reducing the opacity just a little bit... (The degree of opacity will actually be the thing that dictates how shiny your floor is..)

cheers

This "prototype" is looking better and better xD.

thanx again every1 .... iv been lil buzy so couldnt get back in time...

n galian: thanx for tat comment.. i noticed my fault now... but cant edit the entry ..iv made the change here on my file though

cheers

Good luck in the voting author.

I find this a bit cute..nice job author!!
my fav by the way. GL

thanx a lot

Sweet little vehicle

Congrats!!

Congratulations on your SILVER trevordsouza7... keep it up!

cheers.

thanx a lot ppl

Hilarious! Looks like a combination demolition derby and an apocalypse film all rolled into one! Nice work.

You got a good vote for coolness

I love it!
as said earlier, really cool!

I'm seeing some real discrepancies in the shadows. Based on the background rocks, the ones under the cars are both softer and lighter, and the shadows inside the yellow car have hard edges. Also, the yellow and white cars further back have just about the same sharpness as the few closer ones. Interesting concept, though.

Hmmm, two upper-level choppers think my comment is valid.

Isn't the standard answer-slash-excuse supposed to be, "But, it's a FANTASY...?" LOLOL!
Works for a lot worse technical entries around here by a lot higher ranked members... If the crits about discrepancies in shadows and focus sharpness was applied to EVERY entry in this contest, not just this particular one, I think it would hold about as much water.

Author, this looked better in the original upload...the brighter version IMO. You also might want to check the words "Dodge" and "Tahoe" on the sides of those cars, they look bass ackwards to me.

@ lchappell: This is the exact same entry as the first, with the exception of the yellow car splashing into the water, which the mods asked me to replace. Nothing else was altered. Thank you for your nitpick on the Dodge logo. You missed the Tahoe logo on the foreground car, but since it"s too late to change, and it means so much to you, you have my humble apology.

congrats man, cool approach in every aspect

Congrats Bob, terrific work

I "Fav'd" this one from the beginning. Shadows and sharpness be damned, I think it's wonderful! Congrats!

Interesting idea. I think the smoke is a bit confusing together with the trees on the background tho.

i loved it because i'm a big tennis fan, i'd add some tennis rackets and and balls in the back seat of the car for more realism and as a justification for using this particular background, good luck.

Edit: also i'd clone or somehow remove the reflection of the car shown in the silver tires

thanks very much

Nice background..

Great image! Car smelling flowers...I love it!
(Can you make the front wheel round?).

for some reason low res sucks ..or maybe its just me
@ thanks CMYK46, i have version with round front wheel,but somehow i like this version little more,looks more cartoonish to me..but maybe i'll change my mind

Beep Beep McSniff Sniff

Author, I was just nitpicking. I see what you mean about the cartoonish look...don't change it if you're happy.

I agree with you author. with the wheel not round it
seems like the car is stretching to sniff the flower!

great work!
GL!

I agree too! It totally gives her personality. This is awesome!!

Ooooh, this is lovely ♥ good job!

Great car, good luck!

gooood imagination author... & i think add eyes & lips to the car than image looks great...

nice concept, very original, i'd suggest you switch it's lights on and focus it on the flowers, also if you add a front car net in a shape of nose and add some flowery floating mist inside the car would give it more realism, good luck

Well done.

Nice way of presenting the car

Congrats!

wow god knows this is cool....I am impressed..!

Nice job!

Well done indeed! My only observation is the clouds would have some yellow at bottom due to the yellow light source. Nice job otherwise.

I think its cool. not a person for a change as subject yet still a very good cartoonish effect

Thanks for comments.

CMYK46 good point, thanks
