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

yea i looked a the photoshop bible but its all pretty basic stuff. anyone know of any other tutorial sites?

 

fade-aways, chopped and dropped

 

How about leaving it as is. It's great. Just drop it and drive...

 

anyone know how to do a metal flake effect?

 

Dropped with Astros?

 

after sitting in storage for the past 2 yrs I have finally got it back in my own garage (its was stored in Ca. since I moved from SC to WA...

Here is a challege if you chose to do it. I am thinking of raising the rear wheel opening a few inches (to around the horizontal wood trim or have the top of the arch slightly above that to allow me to lower the rear down to less rake (these have boat trailer style fenders on them) so not much room for travel when down low..

have fun with the wheels or color if you want (its going dark blue) but wheels are not decided. )leaning toward 18" artilleries or 16" halibrand big window.....

 

I pushed the front wheels and arches forward, which I think is a necessity on these cars. In order to raise the rear wheelhouse I raised the lower of the two wooden beltlines, so that the wooden part of the arch wouldn´t have to overlap it.

 

There You go,I love that body style.

 

I like the fender treatment here, I added some color.

 

Can someone add some pearl white on my ride please. would like to see what white would look with a green top.

Thanks in advance.

 

Sorry, too much work to paint the whole thing!

 

Something along these lines?

 

astros with skinny whites

Thanks pro1street. That made me smile so much my cheeks hurt. Iam currently going thru the drive train, suspension, and interior on the truck.
Will post build thread in a couple weeks when Im finished. Keep a look out and let me no what you think.

 

A bit of flake and astros.

 

DAMN!! james, that looks sick, thanks for the photoshop!

 

My Two Cents:

 

not too hot on the rear portholes or red artilleries, but the color and the lowering isnt bad!

JamesD, I thought I posted a "Thank You" for taking the time to do your magic. did not see it so I am posting the thank you again. I appreciate it. I like the idea of moving the front opening forward..

Now I have to rethink the front susp

I enjoyed doing it. AND I learned some things along the way. I'm glad you like it.

I bow to those who do these chops in the "real" world.

 

Hey James D how do you do your metalflake?

 

Have fun with this. Maybe lowered with supremes and/or cragars with ww or pinners?
