Detailed RC Race Car
  •  Info created - uploaded - nominated by Jfitch -- Jfitch (talk) 17:37, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support -- As Nominator. High technical standards and outshines all other images on the articles it's used on. Jfitch (talk) 17:37, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support Yes, very high technical quality. However, Jfitch, remember that we can have multiple featured images of the same subject; they're not in competition with each other (that would be COM:VIC). --The High Fin Sperm Whale 22:48, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support-- I agree. Grinatyou (talk) 13:51, 30 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose It is a good studio shot and and for me a candidate for both COM:QI and COM:VIC. However, the lightning of the subject is too flat and uninteresting for me to make it over the FPC bar. The current lightning is such that I find it hard to see the detailed structure at the rear and partially at the middle in the front end. As a consequence the photo is not really an eyeopenener for me. The categorization on the file page is also inadequate and not sufficiently specific. --Slaunger (talk) 22:14, 30 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Comment When opened full res I see no issues at all with seeing all the detail in the car. I would try to change it but as I can't see the issue you mention I can't. I've Re-uploaded a version which is certainly brighter in those areas now. JFitch (talk) 00:22, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      • My original assessment was based on looking at the photo in full resolution. It has improved a little, but it is all treatments of symptoms for non-optimal light in my opinion. The light makes the subject very "factual" to look at (which is not a bad thing), but at the cost of not really catching my full attention, as it is appears a little flat or uninteresting. It is a good photo, but I expect something very good for an FPC, including interesting lightning of a studio shot subject. --Slaunger (talk) 22:09, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose -- Agree with Slaunger plus the image seems underexposed and not sharp enough for a studio shot. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 23:06, 30 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
