Yep, used a really tall tripod and a remote trigger, and took pics with the bonnet up and then the bonnet down. Then you use photoshop to blend the pics together.

And I thought I was original doing that to show my air intake last year. Hmmmph. What a pillock.

Although the air intake graffix actually used four photos of the car in different states of undress. Ah well, what the hell....

By the way. Spot the difference between

Just thought no one had noticed... Hate to actually demand people take notice (!!) but there you have it.

Right, butting out now Benj. You're just lucky I lost your cellphone number mate. I can be really annoying you know...! All those late night phone calls and random requests for odd wiring diagrams and other queer requests.

You're a lucky man alright Benj, a lucky man.


Okay okay, here's another one of my FAMOUS FIEND EDITS...

Fiend you made the paint darker and added a shadow on the kerb at the bottom right of the pic.

edit, and in the last pic you removed the damage on Bens bumper from when he reached in the car and stared it in gear and the poor wagon went for a short drive by it self?

Actually, there is colour variations all over and more contrast (especially in the background) that lends itself to creating a much better visually impacting print or screen graffix... And the third picture is different again.... Squint at it long enough..............

Ah - I see you're editing it and noticing more and more as I speak!!! Good on you. That EDIT function rocks! Keep it up.

Nope. The bumper damage was done in the first picture... The only change in the third picture was done in under two minutes, which brings totally picture editing time up to about five minutes (thus rendering my "quick two minute touch up" boast useless)....

Anyways --- Someone spot the difference between the first and the third picture would you?

Yahayyyyyy. I can now go have a bath and put my broken back to bed. You've always got to wait for the New Zealander to come along with the answers, the ideas and the style.

These Aussies may own our banks, our Telco's and our hotels. But the only reason I'd go there is to see what our money has bought them.

Thinking about doing that Indicator Mod do you think another colour instead of black maybe "Everglade Green" would look good ?
