Very well done, thanks for showing us!
They're all good, with my fav being the Mercedes in the French Alps... the mountaints look great, especially the textures and shadows on the rocks. The detail on the car is very well done too. Good stuff! |

I like the French Alps one best. Very nice.
Do you like to try and show speed in your paintings btcc-thunder? If so, a comment on the Damon Jordan one: Speed is easily shown by the blurring of the lettering on the sidewalls of the tyres. You have shown this very well on the Jaguar and Senna ones, but on the Damon one 'Goodyear' can be clearly seen. If you blurred this to a yellow band or stripe, the illusion of speed is instant! When looking at a car on the track you can never read the lettering on the tyres. Just a tip that may be of use. Happy painting! |

Thanks for your replys, i'm glad you like them.
Great to get advice from a professional, andrew. I didn't think about blurring the lettering on the jordan tyres, how thats happened is that the irvine and senna paintings are from photos and the jordan one was first drawn by myself from various sources and i was trying to get accurate detail. I guess i overlooked the fact the the things supposed to be moving, to concerned with the detail. Funny thing is somethings always bugged me about that painting, maybe this is it! |
