Volkswagen Golf R32

Here's a photo that i edited a few weeks back, photography by Adlin Yusman, for get@car magazine issue22. Below is a short article about the car that i took from the magazine. I just love the end result. I hope you like it too. Enjoy.

Almost RM100,000 per litre.

The Golf R32, Volkswagen flagship Golf powered by a 250bhp 3.2-liter naturally aspirated V6 engine, is finally made available here, almost two years since its official launch in Europe. Aesthetically, the new Golf R32 is quite distinct from the rest of the Golf range, even the GTI, featuring an aluminium full-length grille in place of the GTi's black item, centrally-positioned twin exhaust pipes protruding from a black central section of a deep rear apron, and a new front spoiler with aggressive air scoops. The slightly awkward looking Omanyt 18-inch alloys are unique to the R32 and gives it a reasonably muscular stance. We preferred the previous R32 rims, but as VW mentioned, all 2008 models will be fitted with the Omanyt 18s.  The R32 is already available at any Volkswagen appointed dealer and you should be seeing an extensive review of this mega Golf in the next few months. The Golf R32 retails at RM 302,618.50.

As promised, here's the Gangstarz photos that me and shahzeeq did last weekend. The theme was ethnic and the contestants wore various types of clothes from various designers and sponsors to match the theme. That Sunday during the shoot, we gave some prints to the contestants and thank god they were pleased with our work. Note that the photos were taken at the hall where the fitting room is situated. We're not allowed to bring our studio lights so we shot them with whatever we have. And after some editing to enhance the features of each image, here u go. Somehow i feel that it's kinda lame to share some of the not-so-important infos about how we take our photos but for the sake of sharing, i hope you don't mind. Enjoy the photos!

That's about it guys. Sorry there are a few more missing group pictures because some of them took so long fitting their outfits due to the complicated wardrobe, since the theme is Ethnic.

My special thanks to the very talented SANDRA by Sandra Azwan, assistant stylist for this season of Gangstarz. He helped me and Shahzeeq alot in giving us the contacts and list of sponsors & designers for the contestants' wardrobe.

Another artwork that was done by US. Thanks Keith (the model) for being a sport and E'en for helping us out with the makeups. This is one of the most complicated image that we worked with..plenty of layers and different locations. Some of the shoots are quite funny when i have to run around a hostel field topless with a red cloth to get an effect, and directing Keith to stand on a box perfectly matching the tower picture that we took somewhere in damansara uptown. Thank god that all the hard work pays off. Enjoy!

Sorry guys, it's been a while since i've posted my last entry. Anyways, things are pretty hectic lately. Currently i'm finishing my latest magazine design..get@car issue23. Previously was doing a company profile for a private jet company..will give you a sneak peek on the looks of the magazine as well as the company profile. No personal photoshoots as well for this month, so me and shahzeeq were all out with Gangstarz. Stay tuned for the Gangstarz photos!
