OK, I'm really trying! Yeah the photo flare is a little to bright. Having trouble with the shadow under the car. How do you get yours so light, and how did you do the wheels on the Nova?
Thanks, Al

Ok man you need to post that Stang in your own thread, it deserves it, not just giving you props for props sake, but that thing is freeking awesome. NICE JOB !!!!!
When you start a new thread to show that baby off, post a link or the image to the orig photo. I want to see how much you did to make that into a work of art.
Thanks

lt1chevelle, those are the rims in your orig. post
To make the image look rather believable I just used the centers only but left the orig. rims' dishes. I was just experimenting.
Side note: you might want to get a metal shop to make you a front spoiler, unless some Co. already makes them. I really think the Nova's (all yrs) need some kind of spoiler upfront. I think another route, not sure how much $$$, but you could extend the valance behind the bumper down w/ sheet metal. This would look more stock and the bumper would stick out from the car body and look more factory original, than a spoiler (my rendering). I did a GTX design that way (extending valance). Should have some renderings posted soon of that ride.

lt1chevelle,
I am sure the guys here would love to do an artchop for you. Start a new thread w/ your links. Lucky for you I love 65 Chevelles so I will do one too. The fact that the car's paint needs help shouldn't effect our artchoppers' ability to turn that into a work of art.
Like the Nova you need to take some better photos so we can work with them. I need you to get low on the car (get on one knee) or bend over some to get a better angle. Take the car to a parking lot and photograph it w/ the sun either to your left or right as long as it isn't facing you. If you face the car the sun should be 2-5 o,clock or 7-10 o,clock (give or take). Try to photograph the car either early in the morning or at dusk. This will give everyone something good to work with.
Thanks

well there is just one problem the motor is not all hooked up and it dose not have any doors on it right now and no interior becuase i have already stated to build the car and the one pic i gave you was the best one i have of them car. so i really cant get any better pics of the carunless i use someone elses 65 chevelle pic?
