    3DCarClub HQ Sandman

    I recently won a photo shoot at a Buick Club run. I took the Sandman along and the results are not bad.

    The photographer is a structural engineer who was looking for a career change. He has made a sizable investment in a studio that fits cars and a turntable. His webpage is

    and the Sandman is at

    If you like HQ's you might like this.

    He photoshops the background out on finished photos. These appear to be the raw images ..

    The 3D Object movie fails to fully load.
    All that loads is the thumbnail strip. Not sure if the file structure is right or it's no compatible with the latest version of Flash?

    The images are on the server yet never appear in the player for (me atleast) and I tried 4 different browsers.
    I see the photos were shot last April and he used a Nikon D3200.

    If it's any consolation none of the 3D object movies on the site work.

    I had a look through all the full size photos and your HQ Sandman Van looks awesome!
    Love the air con in the HQ.

    Typical though when shooting Barbados green the photo colour is out by a mile. The photographer needs to learn how to set and process "difficult" colours.
    Actually the photographer needs to learn how to set focus as every image is out of focus. Which is a pity after forking out that much cash on a car turntable.
    My turntable is only big enough for bikes (so far!)

    The whole 3D object idea for neat cars is there for sure.

    Not just the colours, the white is blown as well. But colours will never be right even if they are correct on the photographers calibrated screen. The home users screen will be all wrong.

    All true, but my screen is calibrated and the colours are very wrong. But I take your point. We spend a lot of time getting the colours exact only to have some uncalibrated screen display them all wrong!

    Such a nice van Buick, a real credit to you. As mentioned, the air conditioning is such a great addition to the van, not many HQ's have that luxury.

    Cheers.
