Some Pshop fun!

[rubbadubdub]

Well i just got ahold of a copy of Photoshop and wanted to see what my car would look like with a red/smoked theme cause i have been thinkin bout goin that route. I smoked the headlights(the right one looks really crappy cause i suck at this), added euro rub strips, a dark tint, made the wheels black and then added a silver lip. What u guys think? look good or should i be forever banned from pshop? [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

It went from this...


To this...


And then i added a silver lip to the wheels...

I don't really care for the rub strips, but besides that, it looks pretty sweet

here is my pchop of your car. you forgot to lower it so i slammed it for you! i think your jetta would look hot if you do it exactly as this pic. also it was hard for me to photoshop smoked ecodes so i just tried and there is the result.

by the way i used to be like u in photoshop. all you have to do is learn some of the techniques and your set.

Im torn over the rub strips, i like them cause they are different but i dunno if they are too different.

I dunno how to lower the car in pshop yet, i just screw all the background up [img]images/smiles/icon_sad.gif[/img] i think im gonna go buy a guide cause im just kinda teaching myself and figuring out by trial and error.

You guys are good. I tried to p/shop my car to see what it would look like with my rims black and ended up with two shitty black hockey pucks. Then I tried to get rid of the backgound in my sig pic and spent like hours erasing parts of the car. I think I need a guide too.

Dam raf you are a pshop god! Oh how i wish i had that intercooler there [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] Is that a greddy type 28? How did u get the lights and wheels and strips to look so real?

Nah josh u didnt mess up, that looks dead sexy! im gonna have to go buy that body kit [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Use the extract tool for this. Using smart highlighting, you just trace the edge of your car, and use the fill tool to fill it out. Then hit extract and it will capture out only your dub.

The intercooler is a RCE (raf carrera enterprises) custom piece. The lights were stolen from a real joey modded car; resized, shaped and skewed to fit properly. The wheels and strips were desaturated and recolored using different adjustment layers.

If you look carefully, the hood directly above the headlights has molded eyebrows. hehe. Thats why the heads look a little smaller and the line between them and the grill doesnt quite line up like stock.

Or you can trace your car and do a reverse select and hit the delete button. [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

[SilverGolfCart]

Much better than what I had, you guys are proving that I need more time to mess with that program.

here's a pshop of the wagon I might be getting, didn't do anything other than a badgeless boser grill, and dropped on HRE 542s.
