Photoshop request

[Synchromesh]

I've done all I can but reached the limit of my PS abilities. Would anyone be able to complete this for me. I know it's a big ask but I would eternally grateful (you could even have a ride in it, init )



If you want to see what the car should look like see my pics on this thread: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

Massive thanks to whoever gives it a try!

Here's the original. Don't have anything "in between" sorry.

Haha. Glad you like it. Who says you need to buy anything special to get the perfect rig

Was a bit annoying only just fitting the car in on 18mm (18-55 lens) as there is no crop in this picture!

Oh and yes that is string tying the tripod to the wiper blades!

Is the photoshop request to put a driver in the seat or clone out the tripod and dental floss?

The latter please - to remove the tripod and floss.

I like my driverless car - amazing how quickly the best technology filters down to small cars these days!

I wish I could tidy it up but my skills are severely limited. I anyone could tidy this up just a bit it would be fantastic

Tip, take a shot static without the rig tripod at the same angle/distance/zoom where the mounted camera will be. Mount camera, take motion shot, overlay static and motion and remove as required.

Massive thank you. The area around the headlight looks fantastic. Without being too cheeky is there any way you do the front foglight and the area around it, so that it looks like this:

And I'll defo take this advice next time. I've never asked for a ps request before and hopefully won't have to again!

[Synchromesh]

Please!

Few people are going to redraw part of a car from information that isn't there, especially not for a low res image that isn't that special or unrepeatable.

Do as advised, retake similar shots minus the rig and stop expecting others to do the hard work for you.

Thing is, apart from not taking the 'no-rig' photo, you were trying to use PS as a drawing programme - it isn't; it's designed to manipulate existing images not draw new ones. I don't profess to be a PS expert by any means but the clone tool will put you a big step in the right direction next time. Essentially it copies a chunk of pixels from one area to another.

But at least you are learning how NOT to do things and that is useful too

[Synchromesh]

OK thanks guys. I'll redo the shot with the tripod in a less awkward postion and remember to take a pic in the same position without it there. Sorry for being so demanding, I didn't realise the limitations of the software.
