Photo-ref help, again

Does anyone have, or can get very, very soon, a picture of an entire car (i.e., not any aprt of it cut off or blocked by anything) from this angle and perspective?



You'll note that the height of the camera is almost exactly dead-on straight at hood level - looking down very slightly, or looking up up. And you can see a little bit of the front of the car, but not a whole lot, but it's not straight-on from the side, either. But I could use a profile of a care more than one showing more front - the angle of the parking lot is important.

Yeah, I know the perspective is messed up a teeny, tiny, bit, but that's someting I need to deal with. :)

It's OK if it's facing right instead of left - I know how to flip the picture horizontally. :)

Photo ref isn't exactly the term for it - I'm going to be either tracing it or turning the photo itself into a tone for the page.

Got some. How big do you need them and where do you want them sent?

I cropped, resized, and uploaded them to ofoto/kodak gallery (http://www.kodakgallery.com/I.jsp?c=oiopjcy.1ozih6le&x=1&y=oljc6w). Your gmail account should be getting an invitation to view them. If the invite doesn't show, or if you need a different angle or larger version, let me know.

Ooh, thank you! I've taken a quick look and I think I'll be able to find something out of this - I'll work on that today. Whee!

Say, what kind of car is that? Can you take photos of the interior as well for use in a different project?

The white one is a Hyundai Accent; the black one is a Hyundai Sonata; the green one is a Chevy Metro. Tell me what you need for interiors and I can take them for you. I can also take pictures of a beater, red, Ford F150, pickup truck.

Most car manufacturer websites offer 360 degree views of their cars — you can click to turn the picture any way you want it and see it from all angles, in case that helps.

vehix.com keeps advertising (on tv) that you can do that (and change the color, and view the interior) on their website (which comes complete with annoying music), but my computer choked when trying to load their viewer.
