QUANTUM DRiFTER / FM6A Gallery / BMW Theme (6/8)

Rank: R-Class Racing License		#1 Posted : Tuesday, May 17, 2016 10:27:49 AM(UTC) /QUANTUM DRiFTER'S FM6A GALLERY I haven't posted any Forza photos or frequented these forums since the FM4/FH days but since Forza has come to PC I'm finally able to play again. Having been away for so long I'm still just getting back into Forzatography, it's taking some time getting used to it again compared to all the cars and motorsports I've shot in real life lately. My current PC is capable of running the game at medium settings 1080p60, although I am planning to build a new computer this summer. Each photo posted here is a 1024x576 preview, beneath each image there are download links to 1920x1080 versions where I have removed the Forza watermarks in Photoshop. Feedback is welcomed!

My laptop can't handle Apex so I won't be making a gallery here but I'll be sure to drop in and check out your stuff as much as I can. Great start already :) Edited by user Saturday, May 21, 2016 8:36:35 AM(UTC) \| Reason: Not specified

Yep, it's been a few years since I last used the Forza photomode so that's true. What aspects do you think I could improve? /SUPERCAR THEME In this set of photos I captured some of the supercars of Forza Apex while being hooned around the track. (26/5/16) I managed to flip the Veyron to get this cosmic shot, looking up at it while in the air: (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) For this next shot I couldn't decide which looked better; headlights on, or headlights off with higher contrast and a wider aperture: (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) EDIT 30/5: The photo above was featured in the Week in Review here!

Rank: R-Class Racing License		#10 Posted : Thursday, June 9, 2016 9:26:08 AM(UTC) Since the last update to this thread a lot has happened: I won the official Forza 6 Apex photocomp in Week 1 and Week 2, and got another photo featured in the Week in Review! /MUSTANG STREET RACE THEME In this set I wanted to create a sense of rivalry between the blue Mustang Mach 1 and other muscle cars on the streets. (9/6/16) (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) I liked the above shot but thought it would be better if only one of the cars had their headlights on. I took another version and merged them together in photoshop, as well as slightly changing the lighting/contrast/colour, sharpening a little and generally cleaning up the image. Here's the result: (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link)

Rank: R-Class Racing License		#12 Posted : Wednesday, June 29, 2016 2:35:47 PM(UTC) Thanks xH! Apologies for the lack of sheep lol. /MOODY VOLVO THEME I decided to take the Volvo S60 touring car out for a shoot, and as it's such a menacing looking car I had to pick a night track to emphasise it. (29/6/16) (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) This photo looks much better without the watermark: (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) This next photo is a combination of two separate shots - one with headlights on (for a menacing look) and one with them off for more even lighting, which I've merged together and lightly edited in Photoshop. You can see the originals on my Flickr. (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) I understand that the Apex Forzatography subforum is pretty dead, so thanks to those of you still here for looking! :) Edited by user Monday, September 5, 2016 3:43:15 PM(UTC) \| Reason: Not specified

This set I wanted to get back to my roots and focus on drifting, so I pulled out the 370Z and spent a couple of hours destroying the tires.

Your pictures may look better with a solid color on the car. Thanks! Yeah I picked a shiny paint for high contrast B&W shots to show off the rubber on the cars bodywork but realise it doesn't look great in colour.

Rank: Series Champion		#16 Posted : Wednesday, July 20, 2016 7:57:51 AM(UTC) Great work on the Mustang set! I really like this shot from the Volvo set: Great work on the bonus Mini shot too!

Rank: R-Class Racing License		#17 Posted : Saturday, August 6, 2016 1:44:22 PM(UTC) Thanks NV! Those are some of my favourite shots too. /BMW THEME I was in the mood for Forzatography again, and the 2 racing BMWs FM6A has to offer caught my attention. I decided to repaint them blue and to make the photos pop, and was aiming for this set to have the feel of a commercial photoshoot.

I prefer the first version but this image is sharper: (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) I couldn't decide if the next shot looked better with or without headlights on at the time, but I've since decided that I prefer the version with lights on. Here are both versions for completeness: (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) (Watermark-free 1920x1080 download link) /BONUS SHOT Took this shot of the Aventador watching it's prey - learnt a lot about the photomode while composing this shot, it's improved so much since the FM4 days.
