    The guys doing the photo alterations on this site have saved a lot of rodders money by showing not what to do and shown a lot of us what real work would look like without the expenditure. Thanks to the photo-choppers! I would like to ask if you could show my 40 with two different wheels. First the Hurst ones, then the Rocket ones but with a gold center color like the Hurst. Wheels would be the size as what is on the car. It sure would help me figure out if I should spend the money or keep dreaming. Opinions: Should I dream a new dream?

    Just for fun I tried angling the post to match the rear pillar. Not sure if I like it better that way but just wanted to see what it'd look like.

    I like the B pillar angled better, but awful hard to "beat" the original top.
    I usual like different, but not this time, sorry..

    Just so everyone knows, The Moose is not human, he has entered his third phase of singularity and now is one
    with his photoshop software.
    Moose, thanks for your productivity and positive attitude.

    Oh Boy! Thanks Moose! You just saved me from buying the saltflat wheels and painting them gold. The Hurst ones I need to think about. It is a big change. Also thanks for the steelies in gold and baby moons. That one does not work for me. I may have to back away from gold. You helped a lot.

  13. Madfish...I don't know if I'm quite at the level of expertise with Photoshop as what you described. I find that it has an endless number of tricks up it's sleeve and I doubt that it can ever be totally mastered but I'm having a lot of fun trying. Thank you for the complement and for the work that you do on this thread and thanks to everyone for your support!

    And... a big thanks goes to the fabulous James D. A man with, style, wit and probably a foreign accent. Cheers.

    Thanks to everyone who contributes and that means you too Madfish.
    Can´t believe we´re at 600 pages and 2 million views.

    (Let´s go easy with the ´fabulous´ though shall we?
    I´m not the one with the accent either.)

    Figured its time to wade back in to the Photoshop page a bit. I'm too slow with Photoshop to create something in a timely manner, but still at it bit by bit.
    I'd like to share a project thats been awhile in the making. (Picture a turtle in a snow suit at the North Pole. :D)
    This project is for HAMBer wetskier2000, building a cool '41 Ford COE. He gave me some ideas on what he had in mind and this is the latest version. I don't know how to post a link but his project is pretty cool. Check it out.

    Been messing around with this tiny little Austin A30 `peanut´. I think it would have worked a lot better as a little coupe, with a roll top roof, a la Fiat Topolino. Maybe if the Italians had made these and added the tiniest bit of design flair, we could have had a cool little car. Gave it the mildest of chops and dropped the trunk area down too. Reshaped wheel arches and chrome wire wheels from an MG might be a nice choice.

  19. I have been considering adding scallops or other detail to the side of the car. Any ideas, inspiration or hopefully a photoshop? It just seems plain to me, perhaps plain is good? I tried Scallops when I first started painting the car but I never went completely through with it.

    Here was the early test of Scallops

    Maybe something subtle and non-conventional?

    Never have been in here. Went through about 15 pages, WOW you guys are good. So I keep day dreaming about painting my truck, but cant settle on a color. The thing is there are TONS of AD's around but if it isnt your truck it still doesnt help, ha. So help me out....how bout a dark green? But dont want it too shiny, more like an old enamel paint job. Can you add cragars big and littles, mabe a little lower? 20150419_131046-4.jpg

  26. ^^^ both look great, but I'm a sucker for flames.
    Although my thoughts are, it looks great as it is without anything.

    Seriously, I wouldn't do anything to that truck other than lower it.

  29. I love the hood on. Damnit. I need to make a hood now.

    Some great ideas, I do like the plain but those scallops look quite nice
