That is really cool! I love how you approached the paint scheme. I've never seen that before.

BEAUTIFUL!!

I have a question about color balance, Marius. I hope you won't mind my VSCO edit, but the images look much warmer than I am used to seeing, particularly after viewing the Mustang frames.

Image

Is this cooler version better or is warmer preferred?

Nope, yours looks better!!!!
Did u just change the temp. of the images? On a computer? The smartphone I use to take my photos is a bit limited regarding photo-editing... Maybe I am as well...

That minor tonal change makes me consider running mine through Photoshop before posting. I have the Ps app, but its not the same.

That finish is something I may have to copy! Nicely done!

VSCO (Visual Supply Company) Mobile App

It is super easy to use and the basic set up is free - both for Android and iPhone. I like the camera too, which shoots RAW. The company is known for extremely well designed film stock emulations. Your model work is just so wonderful, and I was wondering why the image was so orangey / warm, I hesitated to do an import but it really takes but a minute to do it, I like using VSCO for all mobile photography.

Image

This is my favorite of your models to date! Unbelievably good work!

If I didn't know any better, I'd say that was already done! It would be if I were making it, but you will no doubt improve this even more than I could ever imagine. I also like the cooler color; it does look more realistic. I myself use Paint Shop Pro 9 on my PC to edit my pics before uploading since I use an SLR camera for my photos.

Looking great ma! Keep it coming!
