Nice job! I personally like the flames, and think it really brings out the color of the VW Bug! You done one fine job on this as well!

I really like the background! That was a masterpiece of "flame manipulation".

One thing seems a little distracting, though. It appears maybe you masked over the right front tire. At that angle it looks strange not to see even the very bottom of a tire there. I know it's being a little picky, but it appears that part of the car is hanging out in the air or missing a wheel.

BTW, I owned a '64 bug in college. It was white and I painted it with red, yellow and blue polkadots of all sizes. Looked exactly like a Wonder Bread bag. It was like the Energizer Bunny, just kept going and going and going......

You're right!! My apologies! It's at the very exact angle to BARELY hide the tire.

But, my original post was not meant to disparage your work. It's a great photo and the background is OUTSTANDING!! :thumbup: :thumbup:

You do not owe me a apologie, I have been known to cut things out of a photo. Many thanks: Hank
