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

That's completely fantastic!!!! Thanks for the ideas

 

So many ideas!!!

 

Got some new guys on here since I posted in October. Anyone willing to help me out? Thanks.

 

Some options:
1 - stock grille removed
2 - cabinet knob grille (I think I would use square knobs, though)
3 - cabinet knob grille
4- D'Agostino's Firestar T-Bird for comparison (per James D's suggestion)

 

How about floating a 1957 Chevy truck grille center piece?
I also tucked the bumper end in closer to the body, which tightens the design.

 

A simple, thin tube grille, with the ends curved backward.
Three sets of two for some negative space visual interest.
Turn signals hidden.

 

And for my 1000th post on the H.A.M.B.:

The ever-popular 1958 Buick square grille.
Could be done with stainless-steel kitchen cabinet drawer-pulls, too.


Thanks to all my fellow customizers who let me visually butcher your cars and trucks.
This place is just too cool!

 

Wicked50Coupe:
How about this?

 

PR51:
Sorry this took so long. I threw out the first few tries. Some colors are easier to manipulate than others. I find black tones the hardest. I'm not wild about the execution, but you get the idea.

Anyway here are two versions of your car:

The first is black-over-white, as you requested.
The second is black over that lovely green shade.

 

Thanks a bunch man! I appreciate the help with this.

 

Someone told me to put it up here to see what wonders you can do...Make it amazing and Thanks

 

Uh, hey Darin, Santa swiped your picture.

 

Hit the wrong button..lol

 

Your Studebaker Wagonaire is a very cool product and reminded me of the similar year Ramblers.

I owned a 1968 Rambler American and have soft spot for AMC products. Their chief stylist, Dick Teague, did wonders for the AMC image on a very tight budget with the Marlin, Javelin, and AMX.

So I decided to use the Marlin for inspiration. Grille and wheel covers are an easy swap. I would have used some of the really neat mid-sixties AMC mag wheels, but couldn't find any at a suitable angle.

I removed the roof-rack and lowered it. Also tucked the bumper a tad.

I included two shots of a Marlin to refresh your memory.

 

I like that,I was thinking astro supremes,tru-spokes ,cragars,or smoothies with shannon caps

 

Any of those wheels would work, period-wise, but since the wagon is so angular, I'd go for something with a more chiseled look. Maybe Radirs or an early Hurst mag wheel.

 

thanks

 

Here's a different take on your Rambler.

 

can someone rework my chrysler without any of the lower trim or wheel well moldings please ? All blue

Danka

 

Do you want to keep the rear skirts?

 

That looks pretty cool!

 

can anybody shop some green seaweed flames on to the truck, same color as the roof?? along with some whitewalls and steelies or caps??
this is for my buddies dad thanks!!

 

That is extremely cool...By the way it is a studebaker wagonaire

 

i wouldnt change a thing on that car its BADASS as is well id put my name on the title but that would be the only change

 

Is this anything like what you wanted?

 

thats AWESOME!! exactly! thanks so much!

 

perfect! anyway you could do the same with this one... gloss black seaweed flames?? thanks!!

 

Thanks Mike. Seeing it without, I think it definitely needs the rocker trim left on. Now I need to find a pass side piece

 

I'll try. I'm not good at doing gloss black paint, so it will take a bit of time and probably won't come out very good. But I'll see what I can do with it tonight or tomorrow. Maybe some of the better artists will take a shot at it too.

 

With out starting over this is the best I could do in making the flat black
paint look gloss.
