I really didn't notice this part of the forums until now!

I've been chopping for about 2 and a half years now. Here are my latest few chops:

With this one I went for the sort of test car/track racer approach. Quite a lot of time spent. All mods are brushed, exept for rims.

This one was a full brush job, including the background. The only part that wasn't brushed were the rims:

This one was a bit of a quickie. There were no body modifications whatsoever. Just went for atmosphere.

And here's probably my best chop to date. A mix between c&p and brush (probably 30 / 70 respectively) with the modifications. Went again for a time-attack style, enjoy :D

Now here's a WIP I've got going on at the moment. All of the modifications so far are brushed apart from the rims (and the background of course).

I hope you guys like them :D
 
Those are brilliant. But what's with the mismatching headlights on the Evo X?

Air intake for the turbo I think :)

Cars with engines build for extreme power with turbos that require huge amounts of air to be sucked often not have the headlight where the turbo is placed. This way, there's a lot more space for air to be sucked in by the turbo.
 
Wow those are truly amazing!

My one gripe would be with the EVOX and the contrast between the cartoonistic body kit and the photo top half. It doesn't look 100% right and maybe the same treatment as the MX5 is whats needed.

But really, they are all awesome.
 
Wow, thanks guys ;)

I really didn't expect such great comments :D

Bram Turismo pretty much summed it up about the headlight on the EVO. It's an extra intake for more airflow into the engine ;)
 
Welcome to the chopping thread, welcome with open arms and a sigh of relief. Good stuff mate, only thing that is bad is this thread has seen better days in traffic.
 
Amazing work for only a year. If I were still chopping it would be past my year and I admit I still suck.

Sadly this thread is not very active anymore :(.
 
Impressive work there Klaus!:D:tup:
I particularly like the GT-R, where you can see the rain haze of the surfaces.

I really respect the work on that Porsche, even the little things like the black tape on the headlamp there how it curves and contours properly +1 mate. There's allot of us here that do decent but few that do well, your in the top 5 of doing well so congrats. Wish you would have seen this thread before when it was going strong though! Would anyone like to get another chop comp going? I haven't chopped anything in over a year but i would love to add a losing image :)
 
I would host it,but not do it.

I made a thread in the Artistic forum,and the poll said 2 people would do it.

I would be in if you wanted to host it, as long as you don't host it like most of them go. Most of the chop comps I see are always non USA cars, I like allot of non USA cars but its nice to see something I have driven or seen in real life sometimes. Also your font is so small it hurts my bad eyes:ouch:
 
Ok,I will stop with that font.Also,I will have a mix of them(Korean,German and American etc.
 
A good mix is always good, most comps are always VW's for some reason. I wouldn't even mind something like a Ducati or something getting thrown in there to put something different in and throw people off :)
 
Welcome Klaus!! I remember seeing your stuff on dA. very nice.

Let me tell you, from a guy that does this for a living, you are pretty dang good!!!

I think your best work is the Porsche, it has so few mistakes they are really hard to find, and that is what makes a good chop... and I personally think the smoke off the tires is too much, specially considering it isnt at a track, but that is just me. I think its biggest flaw is that the rear wheel is off perspective (same problem on the Miata) but other than that, very nice, cool body design!

The Golf looks way too brushed, it needs shaprness in the reflections and more contrast... I dunno, it looks too much like a drawing, but the wheels give it off as a chop. The EVO is awesome, incredibly agressive! I remember choping that thing when it came out and I was absolutely blocked, came out looking really really bland, but yours looks like a rocket! Only mishap I see are the intercooler tubes, they are too dark, the reflections of the mirrors in the doors still depcit the old, stock one, and that the carbon fiber doesnt wave with the form of the hood, but as a design it is bad-ass.

And yes, I know I'm being an ass here, too nit-picky, but these are soo good they should all be perfect!!! Indeed, welcome to GTP, it doesnt get too photoshoppy as it used to in the good old days, but it's still cool to see people chopping stuff off in here with such quality.

Man, I need to post some stuff...
 
Speaking of quality chops, where the heck is some Suzq044 work lately? And yes i agree with the tire smoke, i just stopped picking at small things because people cry about it....

Thanks for the comment! You have a very keen eye for mistakes and details... Pretty much all of the mistakes you pointed out I noticed while doing the chop, but I thought 'argghh... they wont notice anyway' xD

I'm only 15 years old and am interested in what you actually do for a living. Do you design body kits for tuning companies etc? I was thinking that this sort of thing could take me into a future career...

And yes you need to post some stuff xD

15??? Damn, that’s a hard blow to take… I’m 26 and sometimes can’t produce chops of that quality.

And no, I don’t design body kits, I live in Mexico, in Mexico companies dont design body kits, they steal them. ‘Sides, I pretty much suck at body-kit design. Among other things, I chop cars for local magazines, including a ricer one and a couple of general interest mags, for which I do “anticipations” for the most part –and I also photograph and write and toon cars whenever needed, I’m like an artistic editor, hehe

But your skillzsz can actually serve you good, you should try to talk to Glacius, he posted a hot rodded Delahaye a few pages back and also has a Devart gallery, he has worked for bodykit companies, maybe he can shoot out some tips, and to top it off, he is one cool guy.

I’ll post something as soon as I can, I’m stuck now with a commission for the Mexican Hot Wheels club for some limited edition blisters. When I’m done with that I’ll dig trough my files and see what I can put in here.
 
too bad this thread isn't active :/

anyway, just to revive it a bit here's my try of a camaro sedan

Original image

it sucks, i know :indiff:

couple of things could be fixed...but i don't like what it turned into so i don't want to fix them
 
Goodness, that looks like a stretch limo compared to the actual car!

Good chop nonetheless.
 
Where are the rear doors? Heck, the doors that are there are realy small for such a gigantic vehicle. The rear overhang is ENORMOUS, andcome on, glass doesnt look so flat. I like the idea, and I really like to see stuff converted to something it wasn't in the first place, but it lacks some execution. It takes some practice, so keep on it.
 
IM still here woot but i have to much work so no time for play =( , il post my last chop when i get time .

cheers
