Opinions on some photochopping

Never was all that good at photoshop (basic skills, like chop sticks on the piano :th_laugh-lol2: ), but I'm trying to get better. Had this idea 20 minutes ago and wanted to go for a dry run. Opinions? What about the angle and size? Positioning?

I like what you are doing, but the angle is a little off, so is the size. I would think that would work much better with a straight on picture shot. Thats just me though.
 
Yeah, I had that thought too about the straight on shot. Like I said, I'm working with what I've got on my PC since this just came to me. Kinda hard to find side views of bare 3800 long blocks. :th_winking:

Size? Too big or too little? When I get a chance to bust out my camera I'll do something a little more professional. Just trying to hone in the skills.
 
Change the angle like everyone said, the size, and if it was me, I would erase the part of the engine that goes behind the front passenger light. To me I think it would convey that it is sitting in the engine bay. I like it though, it is a good idea and I would like to see the finished product after the sizing and the angle is right. If I have time, you can send me the pictures and I can give it a whirl if you want. I work with photoshop all day everyday, its my job......
 
I think I can simulate changing the angle of the engine, but I think I'll try taking a picture of the car at that exact angle (or dozens :th_winking: ) to make sure it works right.

I like the idea of cutting it off at the headlight... Maybe an open hood shot with the bare long block superimposed over the actual engine? Kinda like a skeleton superimposed on a person?
 


Anyone got some pics of mostly bare 3800 long blocks, short blocks, whatever? Surely some of you must with all those rebuilds that went on.
