Old cars. New Twist - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

I have files and files of old cars that I've taken over the years. I finally found something I can do with them all.

This one, I changed the sky back to natural, but haven't uploaded it yet:

All involved masking then using Xero, Nik and Topaz in varying degrees.

Love the chrome and contrast. I'm unfamiliar with Xero, Nik and Topaz. Filters?

Yep. Xero is a freebie plug-in, Topaz is apparently a program that could stand alone. Topaz can mimic HDR or, as one person put it, "cartoon" images all depending on what you do and how far you do it; All can be used for retouching as well as manipuation. We had been using Nik quite a bit at the studio for retouching and finishing.
