that's it!!!
how the hell did you do it?
i'm also wondering, why i can save images from this forum only in .bmp form.
if i upload picture as .jpg, and when it's seen in forum i click mouse right and save, but only option is bitmap
Thanks,
Tepi

Re: how to make shadow on glossy hood?

because this uploader converts them to bmp's , you can save them to your pc then open them up in PShop or something like it and resave it as a jpeg or something else

and in the pictures above the angle for the photographers position was not right

if you want the jpeg cersion I will mail it to you full size

Nice work, it almost doesn't neewd the shadow.

BTW look at the angle the pilar is reflected in the bonnet and then adjust the reflection accordingly, it's not quite right atm, but good effort and if the reflection had not been there I would probably thought it wasn't photoshopped!
