Official Formula 1 Website Diagrams

hi there,

on the official formula one website (www.formula1.com) there is a section called technical analysis. take for example the moncao race. if you click on to this page:
http://www.formula1.com/race/technical_analysis/757/285.html you will see the toyota car in its front section. i am ok with isolating the car and getting the faded effect, but does anyone know what sort of effect the artist has applied to the actual car itself? i would love to be able to apply this to everyday photography i take. i have adobe photoshop but have not installed it yet, i have been using various other packages.

thanks in advance,

noccer

It looks to me like an illustration not a photograph.

indeed i did think that myself for a while, but the sheer pace at which they are added up on to the website once the new car components are introduced is staggering, leading me to belive they are photos doctored, not illistrations.
plus the millimetre accuarcy & reality of the pics are also something that cannot be matched by a hand drawing in such a short space of time. i mean, they are sometimes posted up on the net within minutes of practice, qualifying and race sessions having ended.

The chap who created this illustration, is not even an illustrator, he’s a programmer, in fact amazing as it may seem, this is I believe, his first attempt at a car!
