Chris (95F350XL) - Sig Ready

Whelp... I really spent a lot of time on this one, and I think it turned out pretty awesome. Chris (95F350XL) sent me some pictures that I could use to make a sig pic for him. One of them was this Built Ford Tough belt buckle:


Then I took this picture of his [gorgeous] truck:


Gave it about 3-4 hours of work and this is the end result:










What do ya'll think!? Most importantly, what do you think Chris? Anything you'd like me to change? Lemme know.

I'm kind of irritated because I spent a lot of time on very minute details to make sure it didn't look painted, but I hadn't realized just exactly how small the picture would be when I was done and had to shrink it down to sig size Anyways, here's the full size so you can appreciate it in all its high rez glory

looks good but why not grey out the wheels as well? It looks a little out of place due to the wheels being black.

It looks like he is trying to give it the shadow effect due to the angle that the light is hitting the truck.

Moved the to Gallery and Picture Display Help section. Let's keep stuff like this off the tech sections, and instead either here or via PMs.

Sorry Ken. I can't PM anyone so thats out. And I had put it in the gallery he wouldn't have seen it because I wouldn't have been able to PM him to look, lol. But he already saw it before you moved, so no harm no foul.

Hey Chris I went another direction with it. Got rid of the fuzzy effect, toned down the black level to make it more gray, and then posterized the edges of the truck to make them pop more like the truck on the right. Choose whichever one you like better
