Pretty sloppy in hi-res. There are artifacts & remnants of the red car all over the place. Doesn't seem like you used the highest res source pic.

thanks, criticism, change color and resolution

The "woody" reformulated! Great job.

Good image. I'd suggest changing the color value of the bark on the limo to make it stand out from the background.

very good entry author i love the final effect...IMHO u could add a bit more shadows on the texture cause now look a bit flat...but i love the idea and execution...best of luck

Thanks CMYK46 and erathion, did some changes on your advice, I think its indeed better!

the tires are a hoot!!!

Nice effect with the skin texture.

might look a bit better if you hid the texture as it runs over the body seams and edges of the openings

I know I'm kinda late but remove the shadow of the smoke IMO.
Nice job author, Good luck
