Hopefully the title made you look :P Not so sure how I feel about the car but the photos I'm not 100% happy with, definitely not my best, but I still feel pretty good about them. The main thing was really bad mixed lighting made it a total PITA to match color throughout the set. I got them "close enough" and called it a day. Let me know what you guys think!

WOW.
You did it again.
Great shots man!
Lighting is perfect.
I love this car

Nice! Clean up the bumper a little on #5 (dirt specks) and tone down the hot spot on ft bumper on #2 and they are good to go imho.

'doh I guess I missed a few spots on #5 lol.

Those are really nice shots. Love the look and feel of them. On #7, is that a shadow or discoloration of the driver's seat bottom. It also looks like there are some folds in the material. That was the only thing that caught my eye.
This Nissan and the Kia are the two funkyiest mini-cube cars of the bunch now.

The flash in the rear view mirror on #7 is distracting, IMO.

Otherwise, really nice. Did you use medium format for these?

Ya it's some kinda creasing, not sure how that happened the car had like 350 miles on it.

And no medium format on these, I wish. Unfortunately I can't afford MF or even the deposit to rent one.

Interesting shots. I'd like to see the first one in a 16:9 crop ratio without the person.

Sure you can find some glitches, but overall, these are god damn impressive. Love the lighting in the first. Care to share some details? Did you take several shots for the background and HDR them?

Very, very nice!

I like the processing on these.

You've done a great job on the lighting here, the paintwork has a real glow about it.

Impossible to tell you had problems with mixed lighting!

Thanks again everyone, I appreciate the time you took to look at the shots and comment.

Most of the background plates (with the exception of #2) are a single frame. #2 just had more range than my camera could handle in a single frame. Some of the backgrounds are lit with strobes (like 2 and 3) whereas others are all ambient (like #1). The contrast is mostly a result of post processing using different blending modes (overlay and screen) and fine-tuning how they blend under the blending options menu. Hope that helps.

Lower Grand Avenue...

Number 4 is good - perhaps some more breathing room on the right side of the image, for my taste.

Thanks for sharing workflow ideas, too.

Thanks for the tip.

great photos. amazing quality and the vibrancy in the red is great. i just think the cube is a terrible excuse for a car

They look very good to me.

never thought the cube could look good

nice job
