Here's mine. I was looking through the Hall Of Fame and I saw Cano's old winning corvette chop...where he created the car fron to back. Anyways, it inspired me to try and see if I am capable of doing that. So, here's my entry. It could have been done better.

Looks pretty good 👍 The shading under the car is a bit wrong. I was also thinking of replicating Cano's corvette chop, but it's not that easy to do. I like what you've done. Could've used some different wheels to me though... ;)

I was thinking about changing the wheels. It's also my first itme ever shading like this so bleh. Not my final entry, ill still work on it.
 
oh, there goes onw of my original ideas. heheh :P
it looks good, ut there are some things that would improve it a lot. first, im gonna give you my technique for adding a shade in those cases. make a layer under ALL your layers, then make a selection of where the shade would be with your lasso tool. make it to look like the car, as if it was completely solid. then fill it with black. now you have a complete blobo of black under your car. deselect, and go to filters. then go to movement blur(or something like that) and add a few pixels, then have it done in a 90° angle. that way the shading will look more real. thatis how I do every shade I use in my chops, and they dont look THAT bad. and indeed change the wheels, they just dont belong there. and move the door to a correct position. other than that, its good, I like it. good attempt at something really difficult. 👍

Countach, that looks nice, but the roof is a little disporportionate. make it bigger alll around.
Glacius, to hell with you :grumpy:

I had tons of ideas for this one PunkRock. Try using the McLaren F1 road car as an idea, or maybe try using a pickup and making it a mini truck. Like in the magazines. Just some ideas.
 
Ok. I know this thing is kinda.... horrid looking to say the least.
It's been 6 weeks without Photoshop for me.. So I have been getting rusty... Suggestions are welcome!

The rear lights, I blacked out *not whited!* the edges. The rims were off a Honda S2000. The top of the car from a 350z, and lots of airbrushing to make it look half decent.. *which I still don't think it does.. considering the level of competition has been increased so many times* The rear window was where 'most' of the work went into. I tried to create a '87 MR2 look alike..but I don't think I did a very good job.

Yes I know, but I'm still testing the opportunities ;)

I took the rear bumper from the Pontiac Solstice, doubled the exhaust (only right before), shortened the rear lights, Hamann rims, dropped the car, colored the indicator in the front bumper white and the mirror black (according to the soft top and the mazda stripe).

:)
 
Hey GentlemanDriver. If you want those reflections and the shadow under the car to look better. Try using the smudge tool in photoshop. It's on the left column and the icon is that of a hand pointing a finger down. It will help smooth out those lumps in the reflection.

For your Mazda sticker, try changing the opacity to about 85% to get it to look like it has the same reflection as the rest of the body. I hope these tips help. Good luck.
 
Yeah, pretty much. That would help combine the array of colors in your vehicle's paint. It looks "blotchy" right now, meaning not smooth. If you used a blur tool it would smooth out your problem.
