This is my first post be gentle.

Ok the last one is not a car..

I do like these types of shot, first one is my favourite.

Could I ask how you did it, was it a car rig?

 

[01101001]

yes it is done with a rig and then it is taken out with photoshop.

Ok the last one is not a car..

However in your title, you did say a couple of car pics, so we'll let you off.

Love the first one (shame about the power lines!)

2nd one - interesting angle and a beautiful beautiful car, but in blue........

I wouldn't be surprised to see either of those in a car mag!

(mind you I'll swap a dirty diesel punto for it, and put up with the colour!)


GO on then... how?

I assume in another vehicle.........?

-- ah threads crossed over!

 

[01101001]

I like the power lines...it would be very easy to take them out but i think they are going to stay

 

[01101001]

Here you go have another

Now were talking, my future car

 

[Keith Fusco]

Very nice.

 

[saladin]

fantastic stuff!!!! Love em!!!

 

[sworks]

I love them all

 

[dan-marsh]

Nice shots!

 

[Viper]

very nice.

The first one looks to me like it could do with being a little lighter, more like the one with the Aston Martin.

And with the second one, I think it would look better on a clean bit of the road, without the markings.

The bike shot is nice. the first time ive seen a rig shot on a bike.

Where did you mount it?

 

[01101001]

The bike one was done while ago and i can't remember the set up.. We tried loads of different ways but none were that successful.
I am working on a new rig for bikes that will get the full bike in...should be finished in a couple of weeks.

 

[01101001]

Here is another from the same shoot

 

[wingo]

Not a bike fan but those bike shots are brilliant, makes me want one!

 

[mattjw]

I love rig shots and these are nice examples, sky and bodywork colours/detail looks brilliant in the fiat 500 shot.

Apologies if this is covered elsewhere on the forum but how easy is it to setup a rig, how much does it cost?

 

[Trappe]

All very good shots.

 

[ziggy©]

very nice..

 

[01101001]

The rig should cost around £400.

 

[will_ainsworth]

any pics of your rig? spec?

 

[Graham00]

Great set, great sense of speed !

 

[BandyQuill]

would love to see how the rig is set up... is there a way to do this cheaper than £400 ?

[Marcos James]

I know of a second hand rig for £240.

If I were you I wouldn't cut corners when making a rig. First of all it's got your camera hanging off the end of a pole, so you don't want your camera falling and breaking. Second of all you've got it attached to cars which are often worth a lot of money. You don't want to be leaving a dent in the car by having duff suction pads etc.

Also, if you have a pro rig, people will let you stick it on cars like this:
