Adding smoke to a burnout.

This is another free photo editor .The smoke feature is not that great .Photoshop is a lot better but a little expensive . There a few free programs like this one but some are more difficult to use and not much better.


This will save you reading any further if you dont like it no sense reading the tutorial .l.o.l.

If you always wanted to try one and dont know how read on.

This was how it turned out .

The free editor is something that i think is outdated but a learning tool.

I had seen guys take photos of cars doing burnouts using cotton for smoke. I tried it but could not get it to look righ so I started using Photoshop, Yes it is pricey. I may try thr freeware and see how it works.

Two from Photoshop...

You can see the difference the freebie and the ones you posted are a lot different .Your pictures the smoke looks more realistic.
The only reason i posted this topic was to show that if a person wanted to try some of this stuff it is not that difficult if you have a few pictures to get you started.

The photoshop i bought Pearl was just under 600 hundred dollars.For the few programs. That buys a lot of little cars for a collector.l.o.l. So you want to be sure you have the interest in this kind of thing before you sink out the money. Some people like Pearl have a problem with reading tutorials and getting them to work. They lose interest in all the steps it takes to do a gif file or a burnout. This is basic ,more time and fooling around with different settings and your picture will turn out better.


Photoshop. Problem with these pictures is no driver in the car .Pearl said they are radio control test cars. l.o.l.

Well look close she squeezed a driver in this car .

Add a few raindrops.

Pearl likes to learn new things problem is she loses interest in them once she gets a smoke picture right then she will do a dozen variations and then it is lightning or rain or snow. She has done them all . Seems like a waste not to share an idea and that was why i posted this stuff for the person who has alway wanted to try something and dont think they can do it. Wrong it is just a matter of trying.

I've wanted Photoshop for awhile now, I just cant justify spending that much money for it.

Thanks for all your help with the freebies.

A lot of money, for the average guy who may have no clue how to use the program it is not worth the money. That is why i posted the links for the freebies.
They will do things photoshop will do and some are easier,not perfect but a great way to learn something new.

For the guy who knows a bit about this kind of thing he already has photoshop .

I never heard of the freebies i bought the photoshop when i bought a new computer.No clue how to use it .l.o.l.
