fix the background and the background in the reflections. The car's shine in the reflection doesnt really match the reflection on the model

Not too shabby at all Aga! Only thing I have to comment on is what Joeyman already said, the reflections. Other than that, good stuff! :beer:

Need to see original un-retouched in order to really judge. It looks "pixely" to me... Like it's been photoshopped and we know you have so perhaps the amount is a touch too much..... <cue AC/DC.....She's just a touch.....a touch too much.....:cool:
<np> Back in Black....... freaking out the cat.....

dunno what to say.
I do... it looks like crap.

Why is it so big for such a low resolution?
And it is low quality....looks like a .gif almost!

png format

Many times I'm dissapointed with gif or jpg quality so other than for webpages, I just use png

Get a different photo, shoot it with a different background, use a different light, theres too much glare. If the picture is crappy in the first place, its just going to look fake if you try to touch it up. And the filter you used killed the background sheet/curtain/whatever it was, and makes the transition of colors look horrible... like look at the rear bumper in the before and after picture.

Thanks, I'll keep those points in mind next time. I've recently got an interest in photography so I'm new to all this. :D
