Hi folks.



This is a canvas of an Audi RS4 (as if you couldnt guess) done by a friend of mine. I said I would post it on here to get some C&C as this is the first he has done. So what do you guys think?


Also would any of you buy something like this? (it will be on ebay if you like it) and does anyone have any other pictures or suggestions for future work?


Cheers
Dan

Did he actually paint it or do it in Photoshop and get it printed (as that's what it looks like)?

You may well find the printing, Ebay and PayPal fees would be more than you sell it for.

For instance:

This is a 20 x 24. Try getting a print of that size canvassed and check the cost....

He painted it himself.

I like it - it captures the shape of the car without trying to be too detailed.

If I had to criticise, I would say that the lettering on the number plate looks a little bit too hand-drawn - almost as if it is hand-written. He's got the lines of the car so nicely; if the same effect could be applied to the lettering, the plate might look better. Also, what is the grey thing in the sky?

I would venture:

Photographed, Photoshopped, Painted.

I like this a lot - did you 'paint' in Photoshop, and if so, what filter / effect did you use ?
