Great photos! But the photoshopping could use some work... Everything else looks great!

Yeah, I agree with that. The photoshopped rust does need some work. Plus the plastic bits were rusted too... I'd think they'd still be plastic, or missing all together.

Cool premise and nice photoshoot overall though!

Agreed...luckily....apart from us...not sure anyone knows the plastic bits are plastic....i was going to remove the emblems...and plastic altogether...then thought it sort was cool to age up the emblem too.
I'm definitely better with girls then with cars...

So, my question is, did you really let her pose lying on your hood?

Browser histories are wonderful things. As is Mr Lennard's photography.

Locations also striking.

due to the critique of my photoshopping...i went back to work a bit...
Not much better... but I 'de' emblemed and removed the center plastic bar from the grill...
i think it looks worse.... but that's the extent of my photoshop skills on cars..
There was not much to do about the lower plastic spoiler..have to live with that one..

Folks keep telling me there is a car in that spread, I go back, look, no memory of a car. Think it may be a guy thing...

Seriously first shot looked damn real to me. Though if you really want the Mad Max look it needs to be a raised 4x4 and have rusted metal blades and crap all over it.

The treatment where she's lying on it makes the car look most believable. The other two look like a cardboard cut out.

Maybe try for a dusty/faded look?

well, thanks for your critique.....do you do any photoshop work..you sound like you might be an expert. Actually the car is really there...and not added in. there are a lot of efx applied to make it fit in the environment....

Wickedly good photoshop job.
Like a supermodel, the car looks good in anything, even rust.
Woman's curves complement the car's curves nicely.
Nice job!
