Caught some quality racing action tonite with Highsider. 
B class tuned road cars worked great at Lacuna Seca.

For the test event, I, for a test, recommend that we do some testing today, to test how the event might go after testing.
Going online tonight anyway so I could put a server up.
There's three possible scenarios I can imagine:
1) The track editor is decent and the devs approve every single mod track before release (sort of like when you upload crap to Youtube that gets screened first) they keep the content level down and quality up or...
2)The track editor is decent but helluva lot of horrible, badly designed, vomitly textured and stupid to drive tracks drown the mod track community and no-one gives a rat's ass or...
3) The track editor is limited to simple designs and all mod maps are boring as hell and no one gives a rat's ass.
Rfactor kinda pioneered the way...
Sorry, can't hear you from the sound of my race-tuned M3.
Herd u liek vaporware?
Sorry can't hear you. Too busy playing my non-vaporware-game.
Graooowr!
Somehow my common sense says that this is not normal.

4-doored cars are cool, mmkay. There was some 2-door shopping carts on the original list so I thought the length of the rear was the key factor.
Any change of slipping the Aston Martin DB9 in there too?
It's a B class boat already and reminds me of our love child FZ50 from the Road Sport Cup.
Meh.
And Modern Meh Insult 2 for crap cash cow games like these.
Project Reality set the bar for proper military shooters.

My trusty ol' M3 E46 in A class shape is off the scales!
It's just horrible to drive as it bites me in the ass all the time.

Yes, apologies. BTW I think of going online to celebrate Halloween sitting at home drinking red wine. Care to join?
Ok here's something different. I was asked to do a theme-based promo shoot for a local band. The new tunes were somewhat gangster and mob inspired so from there we took off.
Shot at the end of September but couldn't release them before they finished the album. The whole shoot lasted about about 8 hours on three locations.
We were going for a cinematic feel and sequence of images from the initial heist or robbery to the after party.
The full sequence including band member portraits is about 10 images long so here's some of the picks in between. Hope you enjoy!

You can see in the histogram when you are starting to blow channels. Quick dabble with LR.
Oh and if you're shooting tallish objects like the bottle, try making make a long strip light (Google) to cast a smooth highlight following the curves of the bottle.
Small suggestion that will make your lightbox shots much, much better if you're into that.
Get a cheap IKEA glass table, tape a table sized paper under the glass. Build your lightbox without a floor on top of it and add one extra light under the table shooting upwards through the table. It makes all transparent stuff (bottles, liquid) look really great.
Also when shooting product images, shoot it with a bit cooler white balance and linger on just the edge of burning highlights.
The background should not burn out in any case and if you're going for the blown white it should be only about half a stop above the subject exposure or you'll lose the detail in the edges.
They don't and they are only interested in taking your money and running (also known as making a profit aka running-business-101).
But it's nice that capitalism turned out this way this time.
TF2 is best taken as a complete, switch-your-brain-off, batshit insane mod, laughfest without any resemblance to a proper shooter.

And I love it for that.
Took me a while to understand that.

Been enjoying Forza 3 quite a lot despite the 300 € price.
Though now the shop has the LCE in stock. /ffs facepalm
Couple of shots.

What's wrong with it? I'm still an ass even if I had a better mic.
Oh and thanks for races tonight! The last Land Rover road movie was a bit too much though...
I lost VOIP after I accidentally the whole server. The headset did work when I tested in the dashboard after the session. Some connection bug.
BTW is the VOIP sound level really, really low? I can barely hear anyone mid-game.
Pretty fun races, thanks for everyone who showed up.
The hillclimp downhill flip-a-Land-Rover was madness.
And the hatred for my E-Type too.

Alrite pussies, XBL is Spankmeyer and I planned to host a gettogether starting... NOW!
General racing, dicking around and laughter promised.

In my world anyone who buys a Cayenne should get a treatment like that.
