I thought this was going turn out a lot better than it did, but it seems like there's something missing. I can't put my finger on it...please help!




Hmm.

Arse end corner a tad too big was my first reaction.

And the horizon line needs the outline of a ship - perhaps head on rather than across the line - set off to one side - can't decide which. Perhaps both if they were different silhouettes.

Edit to expand on my first observation. The large curved rear and the effect that view has on the rear wing, being straight, seem at odds. Almost like the wing is at a strange angle on the car.

Anyone else get that effect?

What a great tutorial. Always knew the Esprit would look good in BRG:




Perfect, you wouldn't know that wasn;t the real colour. Apart from the reflection of the sky on the windscreen has gone a bit green too!



Nah - matching tinted screen fitted ....
Trees reflecting?

I found my eye settling on the rear of the car and then being led out the picture by the rear wing.
Maybe if the camera was at rear cluster height, it would diminsh that effect and you'd naturally follow the lines of the body towards the horizon...?

(or is that just a pile of w**k from reading too many magazine "analyses"...?!?! )
