To make this cover look like a single image, I outlined the car from the original image below, also added tire spin, smoke to tire, added the race track background and blurred a bit to add depth, removed the hot spot from the door and enhanced the overall color and contrast of the final image.
JC Whitney General Cover.
To make these two images appear as one, I combined the car show and yellow hot rod images. I had to outlined the vehicle, removed the background from the windows so the car show background could show through. I also enhanced the sky and added any need contrast, saturation or sharpening to create the final image.
I assembled several different images to create this cover.
I inserted the dog into the truck, placed the guy behind the truck, inserted the sky and ground images, added any need color enhancements and shadows.

This cover was created from the photo I took of a motorcycle rider and a stock photo of a road. I outlined, color enhanced, the rider then placed rider on the road. I also color enhance, blurred the road to give the illusion that these two images where one shot.
