looks nice! i need to shoot again when my car isnt in 70% shadows :p any suggestions on making my white stand out more?

I'd suggest doing any vector work in Illustrator if you have it. That's what it's made for.

If you don't, use the paths tab in Photoshop and create a new path for each color. You can then create a layer for each color and and fill with the paint bucket tool.

I'm assuming your using the pen tool to create Bézier points and curves. They are more easily manipulated when creating them in the paths tab than when creating "objects" if you're working in just the layers tab.

I prefer using Illustrator as it's less complicated structurally and is designed to create vector art. Bézier curves are easily filled, and more easily duplicated and manipulated across layers. Either way, your work looks good. Keep at it.

I honed my pen tool skills on co-op while i was in design school. Using Photoshop to create clipping masks on scanned illustrations for multiple hours a day teaches you a lot about Bézier curves. This was also back before there were other ways to kill the background of an image. There are much easier ways to get done what i used to do these days.

If you want to make your whites pop more, bump up the contrast of your image before you start. You'll have a lot more white area, but your shadows will be sharper and more dramatic.
