I know this is a bit random and not really photography or video, but I was bored and messing about with Photoshop tonight and I created the Storm Vader.
It's what a Stormtrooper and Darth Vader would drive if they shared a car...

I have to say from the original image that is quite impressive!

I struggle to change the colour of alloys on a car!

Its not obvious which pixels originate in the, err, original.

Interesting concept none-the-less

It's one of those "I know where you went but you didn't need to start from there" images.

Well it's a million times cleverer than anything I could do - but the stormtrooper has sun on his front, which contradicts the shadows on the ground... same for the wing mirror.

It's a photoshoot. The assistant is standing with a (rubbish) reflector - haha.
I know there are numerous mistakes, but it's just a little fun.

Fun? If I had those skills I'd be doing it for money!

To be honest, if I knew how to make money out of it, I would. I love using photoshop. I've been using it since I was 15.

I'm sure i've posted a few of these before, but here are some of my other creations...







The last one was actually paid work.
