    My first chop: 430 'CS'

    Just knocked this out in Photoshop (CS edition funnily enough).

    It's my take on what the 430 CS might look like. Basically I took the wheels from a 430 Challenge car, and the wing mirrors from a 360 CS and shopped them onto a Novitec 430 (having removed the rear wing) to achieve a slightly more aggressive body shape over the standard model.

    Annoyingly, I couldn't figure a good way to 'unsmoke' the rear lights.

    Don't be too harsh on me... it's my first attempt at this chopping lark!

    I thank you... I wanted to do one with a CS interior shopped in too, but I couldn't find pics that matched well enough.

    Money can't buy you friends, but you do get a better class of enemy.

    Thanks for the kind comments!

    These chops are a helluva lot of fun... I need to get Photoshop on my laptop so I don't have to do it at work!

    The source images, in case you're interested... second pic was horizontally flipped, of course...

    Also, I've now taken out the shadow from the wing that I rather stupidly left in there!

    Photoshop elephants is $19 or something, full photoshop is $500 or something IIRC. Check the Adobe webshite.

    Anyway;

    I like authentic way that the wingmirror looks like it is about to drop off
    Thanks for all the fish

    Can you make one with the Stradale stripe? That would make it look even better!
