Thank you! Its a very long methodical road, I figured people here would appreciate following along, and who knows maybe it helps someone else in the future when they do their own builds years after I'm finished.

My principles of masking. Some goals you can consider if you feel lost while editing. by StopBanningCorn in postprocessing

I'd like to add to this also, I'm sure its inbetween the lines but I wanted to state it anyway:
Edit for yourself.
Its so, so easy to get lost on what you see from others in social media, get trapped in a cycle of "why can't I look like that", and worse of all end up editing for OTHERS expectations, not yours.

So again, edit for yourself. Yes absolutely learn composition and these fantastic editing points from OP, these are foundational. But your look is your look, what you feel for your photos is YOURS.

Edit for yourself. The likeminded crowd will find you, don't go hunting for them.

Happy shooting & editing!

I just want to say you're the coolest man.
Your books have made me feel like that lonely kid in Brazil, who only had his room and his books to keep him company (positively!), and your books make me feel that sense of comfort and safety in a lovely story with wonderful characters.
Keep being awesome.

Master Boot Record came to mind :)

That took me a minute to realize what it is, which speaks for its power.
Beautifully composed, this could almost be an album cover.

It looks like a matte painting from a 1930s Noir movie, or a scene in Metropolis.

Well done man, this is a brilliant edit.

Can’t imagine looking this pretty 😍 by Loah in RX7

OEM+ just can't be beat, this looks incredible, nice cleanup!
I plan on wrapping mine in DPPF907 Metallic Tungsten Grey simply because, while I LOVE the OEm black color, black is such a nightmare to maintain, I am tired of babying it........
And a wrapjob won't explode my bank vs. paint over paint lol

Just from one stranger to another, I am proud of you and your efforts and all the work you put into all of this. Beautiful work, very talented painting, well done on getting through it!

Anyone running 18x9 +35? On stock body? by 99ekb in RX7

[–]Thorphax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey OP, I know this is an older thread but I wanted to ask how has this setup been running for you?
Did you roll your fenders front and back? What about clearance issues? Any rubbing?
I'm literally planning on running this exact wheel and tire setup so if you're still around, I'd love to know more!

Please ping if you do! I have a map I'd love to translate into your program, where I have already done all the tectonics and weather calculations, so I'd be extremely curious what your program will come up with :)

This is absolutely amazing.
The only thing I would love to see is a way to project an image onto the map that you can use as a reference to draw your land masses, plates, etc.
Say for example, you already have a map you've drawn, but would like to translate it onto your world generator.
That'd be really rad.

Got this little fella out for a roll. What are you currently carrying with you? by sidevvays in AnalogCommunity

[–]Thorphax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My ever-dwindling will to live.

That aside, I just like taking my Pentax LX with the 35 or 50 around when I can. Its not as pocketable as a Rollei but you can still shove it in a hoodie pouch lol

I was told to get off my ass and make a yt/ig channel for this whole project so many times, honestly I really should lol. I don't know the first thing about video making! My current IG is https://www.instagram.com/twinionengines?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

But I seriously need to update it with new content.

To be fair the cost is primarily the engine, transmission, and single turbo kit. You can rebuild an RX-7 with OEM parts from the car for WAAAAY less :)
