Hmm, check your levels or maybe you're not in RGB.

[Birdman002]

ok im havin the worst trouble with coloring,

i have the car pretty much done but i decided well lets put some bumpers and side skirts , i have it on the car but i cant get the color right if anyone could like help me out that would be great or at least give me some words of lifting lol

[Smithy]

make sure your color layer is on color or overlay setting... something along those lines. Or if worst comes to worst you can desaturate it to make sure your color comes out right.

desaturate/saturate tool, is called the sponge tool. Since i use photoshop 5, im not sure wether its the same as your photoshop. Its together with the dodge tool, and the burn tool..

[Luxurioux]

Red Blue Green lol

EDIT: I think lol

Yes. Thats what it means. but.. CMYK? Cayan, Magneta, Yellow, and K-something. whats the k for ? lol

[Luxurioux]

Image > mode. lol

[70cuda88]

well, i think i got the color down

[cmcpokey]

don't think i will be able to participate this week.. just moved into our new house and need to unpack everything, plus i was underway this last week, and may be leaving for europe or the middle east this week. got a lot to do to get ready for that. hope there are more chops this week than last, and if i get bored on sunday, i may find some time to enter, but most likely not.

[Kooper]

Here's mine. Didn't do much at all except different wheels, lowered it slightly, changed the window-line and gave it a different color.

Ran out of ideas after that...

[The_Canuck]

^ Looks Awesome
:D

[sonicadg]

i would enter but the picture is rubbish
i'll enter the next one

[aNOBLEman]

X-Raited, I think that yours would be very, very good if you put some effects on the car such as putting mud behind the front and rear wheel wells and on the windshield. That would really make it look excellent.

[Vaigra]

I've decided to give it a go and I've started to work on it. Hopefully I can get it done.

I wonder why that could be? I want to give it ago, but I can't frickin' chop for the life of me!

[Vaigra]

I wonder why that could be? I want to give it ago, but I can't frickin' chop for the life of me!Because I'm at home for the weekend and bored?

Mine so far, maybe final:
Wheels, raised window, lower, slight colour, lights, indicators.
EDIT: Also smoothed door handle and fuel filler cap.

EDIT: Just realised this is my 9000th post. Unfortunately nothing special, I know, but not a bad way to hit 9,000, chopping one of my favourite cars :)

you can practice and get better. some of my first ones were awful. these are a great chance to practice and get better. and try out some ideas and learn how to do new things. check the tutorials at various places, and learn how to do new stuff.

[70cuda88]

so when he says monday, he means the day after tommorow right? or am i late?

[cmcpokey]

27 hours 33 minutes from right now

[Luxurioux]

this isnt really a car that i'd like to chop. I still did it, only with lowering and new rims. therefore.. im not going to enter this.

so is there any good way to lower it, i can figure it out

[Vaigra]

Take a look here (http://www.digimods.co.uk/tutorials/lowering.htm) for help on lowering.

[70cuda88]

oh wow, thank you

[70cuda88]

well, i guess ill enter this, its not too bad, just not the greatest, worth a try though...

[Vaigra]

Wow, it's...green :p
Play around with the brightness/contrast of the wheels so they don't stand out so much. Apart from that pretty good considering you haven't been chopping long. :)
My entry is my first photoshop in over a year, really out of practise. I'm hoping to enter more often and get back into practise.

[70cuda88]

coolio, i kinda liked the whole wheels standing out thing though, just cuz they are so bright, but yes, your right, it is green.

[70cuda88]

hey viagra, how do you get your picure so big, mines a high red pic but it just stays small

edit: display picture

[Birdman002]

ok here is mine its not very good

EDIT: sorry uploaded the wrong file

[Kooper]

I got one more idea since my last pic: lower it more.

So that's what I did. Now, I'm completely out of ideas. This should be my final version.

I was reffering to the fact that it's an Audi Quattro...

[Vaigra]

I guessed that, I was just saying you were wrong. The last chop comp I entered was of a Monaro.

[SupraMan22]

well, i guess ill enter this, its not too bad, just not the greatest, worth a try though...


ill give you 2 hours to resize it. :)

[Luxurioux]

well, i guess ill enter this, its not too bad, just not the greatest, worth a try though...

it would look better, if you tried harder, to make it look realistic. Try to spend more time in using the lasso tool.

[Kooper]

This car is like Pringles, once you chop you can't stop...


Final final version.
