and for all you ppl who moan at every creation.....i did it as a one doored car (there is only one door on drivers side) so dont go moaning at my first try:)

have you got any tips though
 
Not bad for a first chop, considering you are trying some harder stuff. All I did in my first chops were change the colors, lower the car, and tint the windows. That is, until I found this place. :)
 
It's good for a first attempt. Your attempt at carbon fibre needs a little work though...
 
thnx for the site but i already used those techniques for the lowering, tints and the carbon fibre bonnets.....i guess i was just lucky for realising the easy and professional way to do things:)

and i know its not great bonnet but i'll practice some more

i used a HPI Skyline R34 Radio Control Car spoiler:lol:
 
im getting the hang of this carbon bonnet thing now....thnx again for the website

Make a smaller pattern. I use either 2x1 or 6x3. Those work better than 12x6. Unless its a 1600x1200 pic then you could use that. Otherwise, go smaller.
 
EVO:
Nice try. The spoiler needs to be more horizontal, it's sort of poking up at some wanky angle :lol: And you've gotta make sure you select the whole bonnet when carbon fibering (you missed off a section above the RHS light. BTW... please.... it's an Evo VII not an VIII.

Lexus:
Nice 👍 Try zooming in close so that the bonnet fills the screen when selecting around it for the CF, it's very jaggedy. Sorry if i sound like a ****
 
i used the carbon effect on the door and it s**ks a**:( oh well i cant be bothered to change it

Have you got Adobe Photoshop? If so use the herringbone 2 pattern. I might get around to writting a quick tutorial, it won't be good, but it'll explain the basics for those n00bs (new people). Oh and if you're interested, a few of us chopped the Evo a while back https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/t-22737.html Go here for some inspiration
 
my ten minute nsx type-r .....is really is just soo badl rushed:lol: i'll maybe spend some time on it next time.....(by the way i was tryin to make it ugly by puttin some ridiculous colours in it)
