no individual critiquing? 
rand0m's chop got my vote because its style reminds of the late 90's race cars from the British Touring Car Championship which I happened to love. Yes, this is a hatchback instead of a sedan but it still has that great looking form.ferio-moreno said:no individual critiquing?

i like the carbon fiber and the wheels, they look real. what i dont like is the tint and the paint, it maes it look like the hue is way off and makes the paint look....grimey.

i like everything, all the parts look like they match one another the wheels fit good too and i love thae border. the only thing i dislike is the way the body kit isnt the same color as everything else, even if it is like carbon fiber or whatever i dont like it too much.

the rims came out decent, and the handles are shaved nice too and the beige int is a nice touch. i just think its missing somthing, i dont know what but it needs more.

the thing that really got me was the color, it looks soo vivid and deep. every thing looks like it fits and in place.

it looks really good an natural, like it was the original. BUT i think you could have done better, as in changing the color and wheels, had you done that i woulda voted for you.

looks good, like somthing from NFS and i like how you moded the original rims and the vinyl looks nice. its just missing that "edge" that i look for.

lownotslow: fenderflare + athf graffix = not win. funny though, but you shoulda done more...change the color first beore adding graffics, fix up the edges around the tires where you pasted them, change the rims, lower it a little more....shoot, you coulda put meatwad in the drivers seat! 
itsmycookie:rims look nice...red interior + blue interior = tacky (imo)....at first glance, the kit was nice, but when i started lookin at it - none of your stuff is the same color....the rear flare is different from the side skirt - which is different from the front flare - which is WAY different from the front bumper....the top edge of the bumper doesnt seem to have the same body line as the bottom of the hood....and there is a shadow on the bottom lip of the bumper (between the 2 little metal brackets) but i dont know what that shadow is from
the CF hood was nice, but for the roof, it looks like you just unsaturated it? no CF, not even black, just kinda - dark gray 
chaos: rims are nice
would of been a good color scheme for the hood, roof, spoiler - except the edges are pretty sloppy towards the back of the roof / spoiler, which kinda took away from it....and what happened to the interior? part unsaturated / part blue you did a pretty decent job of removing the opel symbol from the hood though
ryoslide: awesome color choice --- but that being said, the car as a whole seems WAYY to dark...would of liked to see you do one of your GREAT airbrushed lips as well....i was suprised you left the bumper and sideskirts pretty much stock...didnt even remove the front plate
intercooler looks great though, and again, i LOVE that color.......oh, and the rear door was a nice touch
ferio: love the hood...i tried doing the same thing, but failed would of liked you to have swapped out the wheels though, or at least done something to them, make them stand out ....the only thing i dont like, which i cant even really hold against you, is the way the kit looks....the original picture was kinda grainy/noisey - so any airbrushing is gonna look cartoonish compared to the rest of the car....you would of had to of gone and manually added noise to each of the airbrushed kit pieces, but even then, you might not be able to match it up perfectly -- because dont get me wrong, the airbrushing is nice....but its almost TOO smooth compared to the rest of the picture ....again though, its not like i can hold that against you....
otistag18: the opel "fat fives" creative ....paint was nice, a little oversaturated though....brooke burke? got a thing for pregnant chicks, eh? graffic was layed out pretty decent, except for the black stripe along the bottom - its like it just runs straight across the back lip of the sideskirt...didnt really notice much else aside from the CF hood/spoiler....
still dont know who to vote for yet though

rand0m - i like the wheels, yep. anyway it looks like u need to add some more shadow under the car it kinda looks like u lowered it but didn;t change the shadow down there. the airbrushin on the front looks off. smae with the side, looks too clay like, kinda dull maybe add a layer of the ground for some sorta reflection. i don;t really like the yellow sorta hue to all the black stuff on the car, other than the rear wing thing, which looks outta place cause it don;t have that yellow hue to it.
lownotslow - yeah u didn;t really do much. the graphics look like they;re on straight but they could be a little glossier. yeah.
itsmycookie - yours is like a giant flaming tortia filled with poo. the kit doesn;t match cause it was from a silver car. and i didn;t like the chop anyway so i didn;t spend anytime fixing it. red seats, red on the wheels and a f'in blue car... rand0m - i didn;t even notice i never finished the roof.
chaos - rear wing is wavy looking. the black is too black, looks fake. not color from its reflections. wheels are 2d lookin and the blue and black interior is just puketastic
ryoslide - i can;t see s**t! its too dark for my taste. but i can see some i spose. hood is desaturated and i don;t really like that. um rear tail lights are really sketchy, some MSpaint looking stuff there. um i don;t really like the amber turn signal in the mirrors, though it does look real. it just doesn;t flow with the rest of the car. headlights are pretty neat i think they;d look better w/o that little light at the top there personally. just too dark overall.
ferio - airbrushin looks as good as ever. real nice. the hood too. try adding some reflections to make those pieces blend more into the picture. other than that its a nice chop. could have used some different rims, but its all good. cf weave needs some work though.
otistag18 - yeah pretty basic stuff with this chop, the color looks ok and does the cf parts and rims. try to keep the reflections in there and not desaturate anything. the thing on the side is a bit dark but it looks ok.

i agree....i actually had more airbrushing on there at one point -- but like you said, it looked real clay like, and just plain ol' "off" in appearance....it was just TOO smooth for the rest of the picture....i think it had alot to do with the quality of the original picture being so grainy -- it made airbrushing this one toughitsmycookie said:
