January Challenge - Before And After - Acid44

Hey all, feeling like I need a break from the low poly modeling, so I'm gonna join in this and see if I can keep up.

I figure the easiest thing for me to do was to put a car on a road, but then I realised that lighting and stuff is bloody hard... Still going to try though user added image Haven't made a final decision on the photo I'll be using yet, but I found one I like that I took ages ago on my PhotoBucket that I may use.

Nice resolution on your photo. Was it taken near sunset or sunrise? Looks a little dark on my screen.


Don't be satisfied with what you can do but rather strive to do the things you can't do!
Exceed Expectations!
