That's great! A little small though

An experiment in reflections. All the lighting on the car is hand-drawn.

I made a timelapse video of this edit too, which is kinda cool to watch.

Great job. Only mistake I can find is you did the wheel blur wrong.

Thank you both. Though most credit should go to Ari Vatanen and the guy who shot this.

I can only second that. If it wasn't for the wheels this would be my new wallpaper because other than that it is absolutely stunning. It really does look brilliant!

@ChiliFan = That looks very nice ! :bananalla

What is wrong with the wheel blur?

That is Absolutely amazing!
Could you upload the video to youtube please? I'd love to see how you did it!

I'm curious about the wheel blur too. It doesn't look right but I can't tell why, I think maybe the face of the tyre is standing out a bit much.

The reflections look awesome, and overall the picture is nice. But your wheel blur fails, maybe because you didn't even use radial blur? For me it looks you've used a simple blur. And you tire pattern is spinning, but not the rims. Rims are just blurred.

Or maybe you didn't use enough radial blur.

Keep up the good work.

Amazing.

I've also been busy today.
Tried some lighting etc.

Here's the original:

Click for Fullsize

Here's "Stage 1" with added Brightness+Contrast only:
(+50 Brightness, +50 Contrast)

Click for Fullsize

Here's "Stage 2" with added depth.

Click for Fullsize

If some Depth expert wants to redo it, and show me how to really do it, please do so Tips are also welcome!

@ ChilliFan

Compare the result of your original (amazing) edit with something like this:

Select both wheels and copy to a new layer. Transform (skew if necessary) both wheels so that they are near-perfect circle. Apply radial blur. Stretch back to original size..

I can't do it right now 'coz the PC's bust and I'm using a laptop with no PS.

Thing is, that's exactly how I do blur normally and it's what I used on that edit. Maybe too small an amount though, I used 4 I think.

It's still a nice edit

That's the vid i learned it from. Well, not actually, but the LFS version of the vid was shorter, but explained the same.

LOL, 4 IS NOT ENOUGH! If you have so big motion blur, you had to put ~ 20. Now we know why your wheels aren't spinning.

Decided my fantastic driving deserved an edit...many shortcuts taken so a bit of ghosting etc.

Great edit ChilliFan!

Chilifan, i hope you don't mind:

Hi-Res
It's just a gorgeous picture.

Experimenting with colors, and this is what came out of it.
