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

This kind of thing?

edit - deleted oversized pic.

 

With all the talk about the demise of Pontiac, I've been playing around with the Pontiac Aztec trying to give it some help. It's so ugly it's almost cute. Well maybe! After doing some customizing on it like dropping it on the ground and adding skirts and Porche headlights it looked "passable" so then I decided to add lipstick. You know the old saying about lipstick on a pig. Maybe that would help! Not!
Peace,
Chaz

 

very close, but with two spears on the scallop. one at the top of the arch and one closer to the rocker, just not all the way down, but thank you that definitely helps a lot! And still want to see with the the roof in the orange too, if that is not too much too ask?

 

Three alternatives...







Cool car BTW. Needs to be lower though.

 

best before pic i have. hope some one can work with it this stuff is great but beyond me. i've been thinking. old school shop truck. cop top satin black paint, red pin striping, fenderless bed, lowered, wide white's, maybe in biasply like the old firestone's. and possibly a sectioned front end. thanks if some one can pull it off. if a better pic is needed maybe just do it to a web pic. i have a vison in my head but allways cool to see a rendering. it's a 1947 kb-1 ihc. thanks you guys are great at this.

 

opps sorry forgot the pic.

 

Here are a few other combinations including the yellow and off white.









enjoy.

 

Hey guys need to choose colours before paint for the coupe. Can someone give me Gloss Jet Black and then red like the roadster attached. Cheers.

 

Here is my 62 Merc after a bit of photo chopping..I chopped the top, added cruiser skirts, added whitewall tires and bulls eye caps, lowered it and did a few other things.

 

I think this is close to what it would look like,I believe this one is actually a 1946 model.

 

thats great!!! thanks. about what i'm thinking. thats hot rod enough for an old farm truck isn't it?

 

I hope some donuts were performed when the IHC truck was on the White House lawn... That truck looks cool IMHO.

Nice work on the Merc teisco.

 

Not what you asked for, but what can I say - I´m a Kustom kind of guy!
Before and after...

 

the yellow one is nice. i would go more that way if i could find a bed and rear fenders for it. my truck was already gutted when i got it. not much ihc left, just the sheet metal. so i figured just make it a hot rod. i'm tring to work a deal right now to get another later model ihc truck that is all oem. will be a nice resto. for an old school driver. thanks to all for the pics thats a cool use of photoshop would have never thought of using it for that before this thread. but i'm not into all that fancy computer stuff.

 

anyone wana give a crack @ panel painting and white steelies w/ pinner whites?

 

anyone??

 

I've tried, but I don't have the skills to do it well, yet. A gloss paint job takes a bit longer to do, so hopefully someone will be along shortly to help you out.
BTW, it looks like it's gonna be a bitchin' car!

Something like this?

 

I'm amazed at what you guys can do. So, Ive got another one. My sedan delivery has been on the road for 22 years now. I'm thinking putting together another set of wheels and tires for it. Its not an easy thing because it has a 5" bolt circle. I originally built the car to run Buick Skylark wire wheels. Anyway I would like to see what it would look like with blackwalls, black steel wheels and 40 standard hubcaps like this one;


the delivery

 

Hmmm.... I like what you have TBH.

 

My first attempt at adding "shininess". Pretty lame but the new graphics tablet is helping out a lot.

 

Nice job, it isn't easy trying to make them look shiny.

 

Thought I'd give it a try too hard to get the gloss starting with flat.

 

Hmmmm.... Not sure about the look. Good job tho. Thanks

 

Oooops, forgot to paint the frame horns....

Thanks Bob. It is tough. Someone needs to create an add on that makes a shiny car with the click of a button.(not bloody likely!)

I like that look too James D, great job!

 

It is tough to make a car shiny photo chopping it..you have to actually paint it with the spray tool to add highlights and such,,,or as I did on one car searched the net and borrowed just the right shiny part and pasted and blended it in.

 

Can someone drop this 3" in the back and add cruiser skirts?

 

I don't know if thats the kind of skirts You wanted or not,Anyway.
