      Photoshop fun

      Any new Photoshop projects?

      Here's one I've been holding onto for a while.

      those magnum 500s look awesome.

      oddly enough, my latest project has wheels from the same company lol

      it's not much, and the wheels still need a good bit of work (i did this on a computer with a much lower contrast and didnt realize all of the chop marks around the wheels were so visible) but it's got more effort into it than one may think.

      edit: site didn't allow hotlinking.

      Nice 'chop on the Torino. I really love that body style and I can't believe how many times I've passed on really decent versions over the years. I did a quicky Torino 'chop back in March:



      Well, with the new Kris Horton renderings in PHR this month, I got a bug in my bonnet to do one I'd been thinking about for a good long while now... a '72 Cougar to go with the '72 Torino. Whatch'all think?

      Someone said they'd like to see a '70 Torino done, so I did this one yesterday:

      And I'm glad too. I was too lazy to open the thread where you requested it to remind me who it was that actually requested it... please forgive. I freakin' loved your ideas about totally doing up the stock car image. I'm gonna see if I can do the matte/flat black numbering on the gloss black, and a proper stock car style aluminum sheet front air dam and rear spoiler combo.

      BTW, I was thinking about the potential of this kind of project, and I had some naughty thoughts about using a good ol' Shelby all aluminum 427 backed by a toploader 4 speed backed by a GV overdrive unit. Of course, there'd have to be a quick-fill integrated into the driver's upper quarter and mid-ship mounted fuel cell. Nice 17" stock car style wheels in black, grey, or even chrome with the requisite white or yellow letter Goodyears. I'd even like to see a truck arm rear setup with a 9" nodular with huge finned drums (maybe off a commercial vehicle or something) out back. Front could go either way.... stock style with boxed arms with coilovers on top or go full on with a full tubular arm coilover conversion for the front. Heck maybe do a full front sub frame and full rear subframe. Sorta like back-halving and front halving the car simultaneously but keep the middle intact. Big front discs are a given, probably Wilwoods. For the interior, keep it clean and spartan but not uncomfortable, and it's gotta have at least a mild 6 point bar setup. And for sure it's gotta have proper stock car style fiberglass buckets, a/c, a decent head unit, etc.

      Yeah, I'd drive the living crap outta that.

      Will do... and sadly, until I get some real coin rolling in (doctoral student/teaching assistant pay pretty much sucks), all I can do is photochop stuff together. But even after I graduate, academic musicians often get paid less than doctoral student/TAs. I guess I'll have to sell out and go back to doing studio work and whoring myself for commecial work... maybe a nice movie soundtrack. Yeah, right...

      And here it is... this took a way too damn long since it was all details. Details always take the most time, but they're also what makes all the difference, right? It doesn't help that I'm working one eye'd since the damn glaucoma surgery (which is also causing some annoying double vision). Anyway, I think it came out pretty nice...

      I like it too. I'd make the whole car matte black, and have clear glass so the cage and harnesses are slightly visible.

      Your wish is my command Vanzuuk... I didn't know if you had a legit logo, so I just made a simple name, and since I was adding one logo, I thought it'd look killer with some flat/ghost versions of vintage logos too. Dig it???



      I'll see what I can do about the hood now...

      DAMN thats cool. Thats exactly what I was thinking about the various decals in black. Do my name big on the quarter and I will make a poster for my garage. I still love the job you did on my camaro. I got to get some sleep, now I am gonna wake up and run to the computer in the a.m.

      where is Steve from phr?, he should check out your torino.It might be too gritty for the west coast guys.

      Well, after this one, I'm not sure how much more I can do to this car... here's the flat black hood (which I can't quite get right because of the high amount of reflections in the original image). Oh, and Vanzuuk, you can make your poster with this one, but these images are pretty low res so you'll have to keep it small.
