HUSSEIN AL-ATTAR
PHOTOSHOP RENDERING

A good backdrop to your image, as well as racy blurred set of wheels can also help dramatize your renders.  Hussein shows his techniques for creating both here.

 

As before we can now use the Motion Blur filter in order to create the feeling of motion.

Paste the rim you want to use for the car. Here I am using a rim design that I produced previously. As this vehicle is moving I have used FILTER > BLUR > RADIAL BLUR to create the feeling of rotation.

Similar to the method used to produce the street, we can now draw a random shape for the brushes alongside the street.

 

Duplicate the rim layer and using EDIT > TRANSFORM put the wheels into position. You may feel they look a little flat, but we are going to do something to fix that.

Go to FILTER > LIQUIFY and carefully pull the centre of the rim towards the centre of the vehicle. Do the same thing with the rear wheel, although a little deeper. Once you have completed this you will see that I have also shaded both rims to help increase the feeling of depth. As usual I have used the Burn and Dodge tools to achieve this.

New colour! Of course this stage is not necessary. Its just that the red colour was starting to look boring, so I have tried a new colour. This has been changed using the same method used previously to change the colour of the windows. Changing the colour several times during the rendering process is something I do often, so do not pay too much attention to any other colour changes after this step. You will also notice in this step that the bushes have grown to become tree. No time machine was used, just layer duplication. I have also in this step added the ´Mercedes star, which has been cut from a photo.
