I use many layers.

Some dynamic ditherings. Anti-Aliasing. Rotoscoping.

Gauss how do you "cut" the car out then, when I use the select I can never get it so accurate, or do you spend ages doing it?

I zoom in very close and try to get the best cut possible.

But even then, my cut doesn't always come out perfect.

If you look at that pic I made you can see some imperfections in the cut that I'm not too happy about.

Looks good though, I'm going to try a bit more at the weekend, motion blur etc.

Avoid using pictures where the car has too many reflections.
