Learning little by little everyday! haha I need to learn how to Photoshop too. I don't even know how to make a layer. I've been just playing with Photoshop RAW editor and stamp tools.

Got me wanting to go take pictures now.

But, this weather shitty.

JS + XES

iTrader: (1)

Thanks!

I might just keep the stock wheels for this year. Have been spending $$$ on wife's pet clothing business lately, and I think that might be more important at the moment. hahaha

Believe it or not, the stock car is REALLY fun to drive. Probably not at the track, but on the road for DD, it feels so lively.

I'm thinking about taking it off if I'm keeping my car stock for a year.

Do it. Shitty weather makes things interesting.

It's good that you are editing in RAW. That's the best way to do it.

How's work been for you?

I'm going to go out and take pictures now....

JS + XES

iTrader: (1)

Yeah, I've been trying not to do too much editing. haha

I've been funemployed for about two weeks now. I've been studying for a real estate agent exam and planning out my wife's dog clothing business. It's more busy now than I worked, it's weird. haha At least, it's for my own business, so it's fun.

You should!!!!!!!!!!!

This is actually the highest point in LA county I believe. At Mt. Wilson Observatory parking lot.

That's bad ass! I need to start attending S2k meets but don't want to show up with a totally stock car

iTrader: (6)

You should...just park in the back with SamDoe.

JS + XES

iTrader: (1)

Go to a meet and be that one guy who powerslides out of a parking lot in the stock car!

I should!!!!!

Predatorbird

Some of those last few shots of your car are fantastic! I'm jealous of the scenery there.

SamDoe1

Right click -> New Layer.

IMO, if you're still learning you should pick up lightroom and not PS.

Ouch!

Those with stock cars can park in the front green of Pebble Beach one day while all the modded ones are in the parking lot.

JS + XES

iTrader: (1)

Thank you! Yes, the scenery from the canyon is amazing!

I'm slowing learning the PS right now. Will pick up LR soon! Heard it's easier.

These are from the same day.

^ Nice!

Try and bring out some detail on the car if you can though.

If you're willing to share the RAW files, I can talk you through how I'd edit them.

Also, definitely get LR. For photography specific things, it's way better.

JS + XES

iTrader: (1)

PM me your email! I'll send it over!

Those were my favorites. Wish I knew how to lightpaint and have a tripod and a led light.

SamDoe1

Email PM'ed.

With a 60D RAW file there's probably a good amount of dynamic range you're not seeing in the jpg.

Sweet! Best of luck with the new business venture, the work looks top notch

Do you give customers the option to use different fabrics/colors? ie. Alcantara

Best of luck with the new business man!

RPhilMan1

Congratulations! Great to hear it's doing well. You have good fortune.

JS + XES

iTrader: (1)

Thanks man!

I should come to TX to help out. haha

Thank you! Yeah, my wife helped me out a lot with the technical stuff. Another perk of having a fashion designer wifey. haha

Right now, it's only black suede, but I'm sourcing different colors right now. I've found burgundy, taupe, perforated suede, and navy. Trying to source subaru blue and red. People ask for those colors a lot.



Thank you brother!
I had two sets of V1 RS3s and one set of V2 RS3.

Thanks! Yeah, I've been so busy and it's not been a week after I started. haha

I finished two cars and did a nice photoshoot up in ACH. So many nice pics from the shoot. Will share all tomorrow. Worked since 7am today non stop meeting clients.

I haven't been on here much lately but I noticed your photography skills are improving keep it up.

How are the V2 RS3s in the rain? I'm 80% sure those will be my next tires.

TylerT

iTrader: (1)

Jin might have more input on this (I recall him doing rainy day track session with them?), but for a summer tire, I'd say they do fair in rainy conditions

I experienced little to no hydroplaning on the freeway using the V2s, but the rear end has little issue getting loose if you like using the fun pedal .

JS + XES

iTrader: (1)

Thanks man! Just having fun. haha

It's just average I would say. When I had the RS3s, I always just drove at the speed limit or 5mph below on the freeway. Little drizzle is all fine. It's not that bad to be honest. I had them for almost 2 years without any issues.

I think if someone crashes on rainy days, it's usually the driver being reckless more so than the tires. haha

Tyler is exactly right!
