New photoshopper

Hi, I've been a member at A.F since January but I have been spending most of my time in the Car modeling forum. Until I accudently clicked Graphic Manipulation and ended up here, so I had a look around and liked what I saw with the pictures so I came back a few times. It wasnt until yesturday that I found Adobe Photoshop on my computer so I tried it out. I must say, Its very fun playing around with cars and Ive posted a pic of what I've done.

hope you like it (I know it isnt as good as any of you guys but try to keep in mind that I started using Photoshop yesturday)

Very nice! It's good to have another photoshopper in here. The color change is believable too. Why don't you join in our next contest?

Well I might as well give it a go, When do you think the next contest will be? Today I took the before pics from a couple of the contests and editted them.

I think I overdid it with the lowereing job though.

thats not a bad chop for the first time, just resize the wheels bigger and it'll look perfect.

good job, hope to see your stuff in our next chops.

Yeah those are some nice chops for a beginner.

The only tips i can give you is, you may want to blacken around the wheels. Kind of where the shadow falls under the body.

I also noticed on you rx-7 that you didn't crop the top of the picture off, but thats a common mistake.
