I guess you could consider this a nice christmas gift. I just checked out the HPI website and saw my Supra body featured on there! I am pretty stoked about it! You can find it on the Racer's Gallery: December 2004 - Week 3 pics. Click on the link below to check it out:
Thanks for the feedback everyone. msly, you hit it right, it does feel good to see your work being appreciated.
The funny thing was that I was actually trimming a body today and prepping it to get sprayed tomorrow. I was doing a half-@#$ job on it, and I stopped and took a break by getting on the internet. For some reason, I went to the HPI website to simply browse through it and came across my pics. Needless to say, when I went back to the body I’m working on now, I started to handle and work on it w/ a little more precision.
It actually took me several shots before I got that pic right (w/ the street lights). It almost looks like it could be a 1:1 scale shot. I though the pic w/ the reflection was good too. I know some people don’t care for the rims, but it’s the whole pic that is being judged.
I sent them 2 other shots that they didn't even post up there. One was simply an inverted color shot and the other was a night shot. I thought the night shot was my best one. Check them out below:
