[donbenni]

That's great Suz!

 

[F1GTR]

Yes, looks quite nice.

No more cars from me, 30 day CS2 trial ended .

awww man that sucks, your vectoring was really good. You should've asked for the full program for Xmas.

 

[F1GTR]

Looks like I'll try it in PS elements. Freehand style!

EDIT: Aunt may be sending me a copy. Ooooh...quick edit!

Hey Suz', what do you think of the series so far? I'm very pleased with it, except for the fact they don't release enough episodes on DVD at a time. I know theat those episodes weren't made at the time, but I still want them.

Anywho, I knew the series would be good when I heard that it was designed by the guy who did Cowboy Bebop. That's still my fav'. It's a classic.

Mazda RX-7 with a Veilside(Maisty?)kit.

Looking good.

 

[bondy_1625]

Bleh! dont like the car, but the lines and everything you have so far look great. hope you can change my mind about it when its finished 👍

Under18Carbon: Hows the bugatti coming along? From what you've posted it looks sweet and surely you have more progress by now.

Sorry, but the Bugatti died.

I know it's sudden and all... but I got a bit bored of it. I'll get back to it sometime I guess. Just like the other 3 vectors. Hows the RS4 coming along?

@suz : Nice to see a break from cars.

@donbenni : Yummy! RX7? Very nice colours so far...!

WIP :

This is a very special car to me... I'll never forget the day I saw one roaring just a couple of meters in front of me. The sound was thunderous! 👍 On a sidenote, this is probably the worst colour I've tried to replicate... damn rosso corsa! *shakesfist* Oh and damn rims!

Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale

 

[bondy_1625]

well the RS4 is taking ages! Ive got jaggie problems too But its coming along nicely i have the front bumper and bonnet finished. with lights too
yet to do the entire side of the car, windows, wheels, grilles and bg.
dont expect it anytime soon, i hardly get to work on it.

I say that if you have problems with jagged lines when it's all said and done, just get the whole image in 1 raster layer "select it all and paste it in a new layer on top." After that, go to Filter>Stylize>Diffuse Change your setting to "antisotropic" and it should smooth over the whole image, it actually blends everything in really nicely, makes it look a little better.

That will turn

That's so simple, but creates great results. Excellent find 👍

I'm liking that Stradale carbon. 👍

Hey, thanks, photoshop likes to sneek these little things in, i'm just here to help you guys find it, lol. If there's anything else people are wanting to know how to do, i'm damn near a PS dictionary, cause i've done most everything there is to be done in PS.
BTW, i'm tinkering around with vectors again, working on a italdesign's Lamborghini Cala.

[donbenni]

Ooooh h.o.t, good choice

Why not list a few brief descriptions of some of the coolest things you know how to do in Photoshop, that'd be damn helpful. I used the Diffuse on this chop last night, and the results were just amazing:

Flattened all layers, copied & pasted the whole image, raised levels so that everything was bright, applied the Diffuse, set that layer to 'darken'.

All off the imperfections in the bodywork just dissappeared, left smooth paint behind. Awesome stuff, thanks! 👍

 

[CDailey]

Oohh...lovin that Cala.

 

[franz]

I love Cala as well ... can't wait to see your final result
btw .. thanks for the tips

 

[suzq044]

isnt this the vector thread don?

 

[under18carbon]

I hate the front bumper. I hate Ferrari red. I hate Challenge Stradale rims. But mostly the bumper.

I hate the front bumper. I hate Ferrari red. I hate Challenge Stradale rims. But mostly the bumper.

It looks seriously very good. What I'd like to add though is a bit more lighting, don't be afraid to put some white lines/bright sharp areas into it.

I really like what I see. Looks the shait except for the fact that I love super-saturated coloring.

Anyway you'll make the RX7 awesome I know.. Btw. here's a little taste of something I've been playing with.

 

[donbenni]

Heh, cheers GTJ And i see too that your new project will be a killer 👍 Interesting use of brushes so far.

Shant: Beauty! You're right the bumper doesn't look quite right, but i say you grasped the Rosso and the rims nicely nicely (:

Looking good so far, keep up the good work

 

[bondy_1625]

Update: decided i really need to get this finished now so im gonna be working on it a lot more often. Hopefully ill have it finished by the end of the month then ill start a new one

 

[donbenni]

Looks great! 👍

 

[bondy_1625]

Looks great! 👍

Since you're online ill ask you here, when will v3 of your tut be ready for Devart? Ill be waiting for it. Also im having an issue with the grille on the front of the RS4. Cant find any pattern that would look anything like it, and i dont wanna have to select each different honeycomb shaped peice of grille, that'd just take me hours.

 

[suzq044]

the audi looks great; i bet it'd be easy for you to have it done before the end of the month couple of days if u have a few hours @ night

omicron- have you done NEthing else to the CALA?

[bondy_1625]
