Wallpaper Goodness: Ryan Gates AMS Sponsored Evo X

Without an opportunity to shoot Ryan's car personally, i've been supplied some high-res, high-quality shots of his car from the Super Lap Battle and just HAD to get my hands dirty with them. Photograph credited to vanphoto.com - what a great shot! This one has about 20 hours of post-processing into it.

The goal with this was to come up with a clean, clutter-free wallpaper that vividly featured the great lines and color of this car. The photo itself has the car powering through an apex with almost brute force - and is perfect for a wallpaper. There's enough space to either side for your icons - and the final edit is full of eye candy. I've had it on my desktop for a few days and can't stop looking at it.



Click Here to download the full high-res wallpapers (from the above 1280x800 all the way to 2650x1600)

Let me know what you think! There are more in the works and possibly a wallpaper tutorial if there's enough interest.
