First time using off camera lighting. What do u think?

i was gonna pshop out the light mount but i kinda like seeing it there. what do you guys think? should i photoshop out the light and the white reflection on the car (i took all the reflections out in the 2nd pic) I wanted to do more but forgot to bring an extension cord. Next time I'll bring one so I can use 2 lights (one with an umbrella to better light the side profile)

seems like the light is directed a bit too much to the front of the car. I would also use more than 1 light if possibly at night to eliminate those elongated shadows.

first off, welcome

pics do look good though but i would have to agree with you on using more than one light....its also hard to shoot a black car

refer to this thread on lighting setups
Post examples of lighting setups and strobe positions here.
