Here's a comparison demo image and my final contest entry placed in a different scene.



Altered vehicle was placed in southwestern desert scene with long straight road leading to horizon. Mountains, colorful sky, lightning storm, abandoned buildings and other items were added to background.

Thanks for looking!
C&C welcomed.

I think window reflection must have some sky colors. (Not green as YOU have) Lights on grill are off and front wheel is strange. Like the idea.

Thanks! The 'green' is the original window tint. I'll work on trying to make those more realistic to the scene.

I'm still learning... Please elaborate about the lights and front wheel.
The lights are from the grille of a '67 Mustang GT and I thought I placed them on the same plane as the Focus grille.
Here's a close up crop... How can they be improved? I'm thinking I should have blackened the outer rings...


The front wheel & original tire was replaced outward relative to the extended fender in the original slightly turned position within the front of the opening.
So is it maybe now appearing a bit too far forward being extended out that way with the fender?

Here's a re-mod per suggestions from another website; Pillar, door jam and handle was moved back. Rear side window filled in, and shadowing added to wheels.
I also left out the side accent stripes for this example.

Any other suggestions appreciated.
