Photoshop request :)

Well I hope people dont mind. Im really struggling with coming up with a new paint scheme for my car. This is one of my favorite paintjobs Ive seen. I forget who's car it is.

What Id like to see is:

1) a red car, black grill, black healight pockets and black stripes.

2.) a red car, black grill, red healight pockets and black stripes

2.) Then another with white stripes.


Would one of you photoshop guru's be so kind?

Thanks

note the wide mouth grille, tinted banner, and semi-cut out ground effects giving a more mystique image.

You could have saved the request & looked at the "top 10 cars" post & viewed Brads car (excluding the white stripe part at least..)......

Actually I learned from 86FyrBrd's site. You basicly add a new layer, pick the paint brush and turn the opacity down (at the top) to about 70%. Then paint away.

It's fun I always like to see what I can do, and I had some time on my hands.
