The car is MAGNIFICENT. The reflection is BRILLIANT. =D>
But, what made you choose the 'artwork' on the wall? ;))
Lovely work Ron as Rik states reflections are wonderful. I am not as polite as Rik Ron I don't like the artwork against the car why not pic of other Jag.
I enjoyed this excellent piece of work, especially as it reminded me of the 1958 XK150 SE, which I owned for 19 years in Singapore. This photograph shows it during a rally in a Johore rubber estate. Your designers eye has captured the detail suberbly.

wow.. you really owned this car ?? do you know how much it worth if you have it today ??
That's a beautifully stunning image Ron.
I am sure the source of the background fill tile you used for a painting would be honored.
I would make the painting darker so that it does not compete with the car. And the marble texture is too large. You can get some large marble images for free on CG Textures which will work better. If your marble gets softer in focus it will add more realism to the image.
I downloaded a large image, applied a Default Perspective Envelope, then duplicated the shape, converted to editable shapes and ungrouped, used the Photo Tool to blur then applied a linear transparency to make the image softer as it went back.
The painting could be slightly blurred as well as it would in an actual photo.
Hi Ron
Great work on the car. As for the painting on the wall I would just leave it out. Or perhaps a window?
really nice car
I agree with everything posted. I just threw the background together without much thought.
One observation, though. Gary, the sample you posted looks like the marble has been stretched
vertically by your envelope app. That doesn't seem realistic to me. I did apply an envelope
to my marble but it doesn't show as I have covered the front corners with a frame. I'll give
the cg a try.
Thanks everyone for your feed-back.

I squashed the marble down on top to create foreshortening. This compensates for the distortion caused by the envelope.
