another revision: correct angle, modified hands for better grip and perfect blending for a realistic finish.
my shot. shadows should reflect and it must be as realistic as possible. observe lighting and blending.
misterbads, that seems like a right angle now however the waveboard became too blurry. also grey waveboard is being lost on the background. can you use this image instead? http://i55.tinypic.com/k9thls.jpg
misterbadz, the new waveboard definitely looks better then the grey one but now the edge of the foot is standing out. can you blur it so it mixes nicely with the waveboard
i have placed the proper lighting on the waveboard's rollers to match tony hawks' lighting and blended the darkness on the area where no lights pass through. "right click > view image" to see the full pixel hope youll like it
tababongchi, the last one is really good! that's going to be the third finalist here. Once misterbadz is back with his final entry i will announce the winner!
Crosshair, really good thinking about the lighting! what was bothering me, is that the light and shadows on the boards do not match the rest of the image. However your waveboard itself does stand out quite obviously from the rest of the image
OK, I am standing by since we have crosshair's genius idea about the lighting i am also waiting for his revision as well. tababongchi and misterbadz's. lighting is actually something that is worth looking into
