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

How do those doors work? I've sat here for quite a while and I still can't figure it out, do the wing windows not open out with the door? That is really bizarre when you look at it and don't see how it works!

 

Correct.

There´s a long and highly scientific explaination for that, but I don´t have time to go into it right now.

 

I am kinda hoping you will have some sympathy for me James, when you have some spare time

 

If I understand what you mean correctly, then I can tell you it´ll look really bad. I´ll whip you up some Matranga Merc style window frames if you want?

 

Like this maybe?

 

I've got a request for you guys. It's an idea for my car later on down the road. 55 Chevy 210 post. 2-tone w/ gloss black on bottom and satin black on top.

 

The plan is to put a 6-71 on the Scout. The dilema is what to top it with. Can you infinitely talented guys give me a look at the following...

1. 1 6-71 w Hilborn scoop / 2 carbs
2. 2 6-71 w Hilborn scoop / 4 port (a-la Strange Bird)
3. 3 6-71 w Bugcatcher
   
   

Note the angle of the single carb / air cleaner and the postion of the set back

Thanks in advance kids

 

That looks as nice as the Hirohata Merc James ! But I have access to the tops from some original doors and am planning to use them....

 

Ive just got a really simple request if one of you wouldnt mind. Could you just flip flop these colors? Lavender body, dark purple top and spears. Thanks!!

 

I agree with James on this one.
It would look a lot better with the stainless than the original door tops, and probably be a lot less work.

Just my 2 sence

 

james you have done it again ,,thanks thanks to richg.. and pro 1 i think,, also....ln7.... i did not know what the multi quote was, thanks learn something new everyday

 

Rock on!

 

Hell yeah for multi-quote!

 

I agree too that it looks much better, but I have no idea where to even think about finding some stainless to make it all work.....I could look at doing it in steel but I am positive I could not afford to have it chromed ! But damn that looks gorgous James !

 

Hey guys !!! I bought this shoebox last summer and I don't like the chop :/ Can someone please fix the roofline on this one ? I'm planning on painting it the same green as the firewall I would be very thankful if you guys could chop and paint it for me Sorry guys I don't know how to post pictures yet but here is a try Thanks alot !!

 

Can't do it

 

Go to the message box and click below it "Go Advanced". You'll see on the toolbar a icon that looks like a paperclip, click this and it will open another window. Click "Browse", find your picture, and hit "enter". In the small window click "upload" and wait. When it's done you'll see your pictures file name, close that window, then put a short message in this box, hit "post reply" and done!

Anything you can cut one side off and curve to accept a window channel felt.

 

I actually kind of like the chop, but it looks like the back of the roof needs a bit of the crown taken out. I'm not sure if "pancaked" is the correct term, but I hope you know what I mean.

Can someone help me with a color change on my 63' i just finnished. I am getting ready to start the on body & paint just need ideas on a cool color...

Here is the truck and the colors i had in mind, ones a HRF Seafoam green metallic. I want the grille to be the same color as the body. Not sure what a good pic would be to use so i attached a few...

Thanks for any help or ideas, Jesse

 

Hi , I think I understand what you mean , and I agree . And the back of the roof is just not right in my opinion. But I think the front is good. I want to hear your opinions and hopefully see a photoshop version What would you guys do ? Feel free to chop it and thanks alot bigcheese for helping me out !!

 

Hey Jesse ! Really cool truck !! I had these pics on my computer already , and I'm not a photoshop pro . But I just wanted to show you some cool colors, Hope you like them !

 

Cool man thanks, i think i want to go a flat light metallic green. Thanks again for any help...

 

The things that stuck out to me were that the back window came all the way down to the transition between the top and the body, and that the curve at the back of the rear window seemed larger than the opposing one at the front of the door window (I hope that makes some kind of sense). I shortened the rear window and sharpened the curve, if you click between both pictures it might be clearer...

 

Thank you Rich ! Yea that makes sense It looks alot better . But I still think the side back window doesn't match with the front , I would be very thankful to see more versions of the chop and maby see it in the same green as the firewall D Thanks again !

 

Guys............Black with Lotus green cove, black 14" Minilites with only the thin outer rim polished.
Stance as is.........why would u want to change it??dang.

Info on how to have this in my collection when I have way too many other projects!!
THANK YOU!!!

Pic taken at Laguna Seca Lotus Cortina meeting last week. Have pics of all 16 cars there if anyone is interested.
