Ive got a 62 galaxie sittin in bare metal looking for photoshop help .It was originally white with a mint condition red bucket seat interior.I dont want to swap out the interior so its gonna have to be black,red or silver.I was thinking along the lines of a 2 tone with a foose type paint scheme,I appreciate any help,mike
I think you should mention where did you steal that picture from... Nice car, though, and good luck with your project! http://www.saunalahti.fi/squire64/ Mika
I dont remember mines in bare metal so i posted one i found on the net, i always download pics of 62s to get an idea of what mine would look like.mike
This link, off of customrodderweb.com, might be easier to Photoshop: http://customrodderweb.com/events/0501cr_columbus_15_z.jpg I love how simple and clean this car looks. It really doesn't need anything else. Car owned by Shane and Channa Felger, pic taken at Goodguys Columbus, courtesy of Custom Rodder mag.
For the record, this is one of the sweetest looking '62s I've ever seen. Maybe I ought to rethink my plans for my '64 Tudor. Jan
You got a bad ****in at***ude, ***hole. We're building traditional rods and customs in the theme of years gone by. would you say that everybody that has a panel paint job ripped off Larry Watson? Would you say that every striper rips off Von Dutch? Mike here is trying to approach his project with a game plan, which is the correct way of doing things rather then just aimlessly cutting and cobbling together some pile of **** with no set theme. Photoshop is whole lot easier than painting a car 4 times to decide which color you liek the best. How about you do an intro and post a pic of your car so we can tell who you ripped off.
HA HA HA HA!!!! You've never looked at anything and adapted that style to your own? Never thought "Wow, blue jeans and a t-shirt looks comfy, I'll get me one of those"...or maybe "nice apartment or house, I'll get me one of those".... Let me guess, you make your own clothes, design your own instruments and write all your own unique music on your new instrument so as not to copy anyone's style, grow your own food..... Everything is a rip off.... Take your ****ing at***ude and go away......You're obviously too cool for the HAMB....
Well, back on topic. What direction are you planning on going with the car? slammed with astros with bell flowers? Factory height? what body mods? That all plays into my mind of how wild a paint job should be. With red interior, black would be ideal. Black with silver scallops would be outrageous. Maybe a 2 tone black/silver flake roof? Hey, what about a green? green and red...tis the season
Foose? Really? He designs/builds some nice rides, but they aren't really very traditional, which is kind of what we dig, around here. A far as colors...you didn't list white as an option, but maybe white with silver flake scallops and a silver flake roof? cgboylan...you might want to re-think your approach to the HAMB. Seems like you're goin about things the hard way.
