since running into some, uh, technical difficulties, i've decided to rework my concept. i've switched teams to the deadly sins, and the basic setting of the shots is "things on the side of the road". things that get thrown out of windows or get left on the street. some of the shots i actually found on the road. a couple i had to set up. the streets were wet, so it gave me an opportunity to really dive into texture.

  1. the theme i'm getting here is something like "junkyard" because of the gritty backgrounds and trashy car parts. if that theme is correct, about half of them are working -- pride, envy, wrath, sloth (kind of). those are all clearly following the theme and involve car parts. greed uses some kind of motor oil or similar, but i can't make a clear connection to the sin like i can with the other ones. gluttony and lust are clear and look really nice, but don't use the car like the others do.

    i would suggest either trying to work out gluttony, lust, and greed in the context of a trashed-out car, or expand your theme to "trash" in general, and only include one or two car parts. wrath would be easy to fix in that case, because the idea you're using is simply something that is broken.

    technically, these look beautiful. i love the tonal range and textures of everything. retain that no matter what.
