Art & Inspiration The Photoshop thread to end all Photoshop Threads!

I think we're closing in on it. I'm pretty convinced a painted wheel doesn't work on this car for some reason, or maybe it's the absence of a whitewall tire on them. Thank you!

 

@Groucho

This is just my personal opinion and mean no disrespect but what I'm seeing is a '60's show car that fights any wheel/tire combination that doesn't stay in the same vein.
Here's a quick example by way of explanation. In the first one I stayed with the the show 60's car theme and just stuck baby moons and white walls on the car. In the second one, I took all the pin striping, the white roof and stuck hood sides on it. Then I stuck American torque Thrusts and black walls. In my opinion the black walls will work provided you lose the show car pin striping, white roof etc.

 

I wonder how @Groucho's sedan would look with wide whitewalls and full caps, say '56 Oldsmobile?

 

Name off, 3” chop, no window decals, any tire/wheel combo.

 

Thank you Madfish! I like it both ways. I think either will work, and look better than whitewalls and redlines.

As for the Green Meanie, I like it with the current wheels, and I like it with the chrome steel and thinner white. I agree that the stripes and open hood sides don't work well with blackwalls and mags. Looks good with mags and hood sides/no stripes, but no way I would change the car just to make the mags work. I think your assessment is right on.

 

I can't see that at all on a 60s show rod.

 

One of the reasons i bought it is because it's NOT chopped. Around here they're so common with a chop the unchopped ones stand out to me.

 

I LOVE what you're doing here. The bottom pic would be much better without those modern day Ds with the primer grey colored spokes. Real mags from the 60s with straight spokes, polished lips and magnesium colored spokes. You really nailed the big moon/fat white look!! THX

 

Thanks very much for doing that. I always said white but really like it green got a while before I have to make up my mind though

 

Anyone care to stick this 34 ford bumper on the front of my truck, somewhere I had mocked this up in the garage but I can't find the photo of course.
Thanks in advance

Here's a quick version.

 

Hey that's not bad, takes your total focal point off that big wurlitzer grill, thanks

 

Might not even hurt to scooch it up over the bottom of the grill a bit.

 

If this were my car, I'd set the wayback machine to 1962 and go for a style like Joe Cruces' Tall T. Lotsa white, and chrome wheels, your choice of whitewall width. First version has white running boards and chrome Ansen Sprints. Second version goes with a '63 Buick Riviera chrome rally wheel. Third runs '54 Skylark wires. Last pic is Joe Cruces' tall T to get the vibe.

 

Nice work! Especially digging the 1st pic. Astros!

 

Hi! Can you make my 64 comet into these 3 different color schemes, all blue, blue with white roof and white with blue roof? Thank you for any help!

 

Thank you as always!! You’re the best

 

I vote all blue.

 

If it were mine I'd go with all Wimbledon White with black steel wheels like the white ones on the number 11 Galaxie in the original post.

 

Can I see the daisys swapped out for the chrome slots please and thank you

Since dodge stepside fenders are next to impossible to find up here, can I see what these would look like please.

In this color?

Thanks!

The fender you're requesting is OT ('73-'87). Maybe you could find another fender that's H.A.M.B.-friendly.

 

'53-'59 Ford step-side fenders are available, for example.

 

I just wasn’t going to mention that...I can get a brand new set of them cheap...I’m still looking for dodge ones.

I have thought of the Ford ones, I’m on a budget so working with what I can find cheap. I have a line on two other step side trucks that may work out, thought the GM ones may be a cheap alternative if they looked decent. I know where there is a brand new set sitting that will be dirt cheap. If it offends someone maybe one of the guys could pm me with a photoshop. Thanks!
