Photoshop Request

1986nate · #1 10-01-2010, 12:17 AM

I've got someone interested in buying a set of rims from the claret that I sold. But he's trying to imagine how the rims would look on a 92 teal and also, with a bronze or gunmetal finish on the wheels. If someone could do this, that would be awesome.

and if it helps at all, here's the only pic that he has of his car online....

Thank you to anyone in advance that can do this.

I can do it but if it's gunna look any kind of good u need two pictures of the same angle. It's easiest to get a flat side view of both sides.

BTW for anyone that does know how to do this but doesn't have Photoshop I use gimp. It's free and does most of the things Photoshop does just as easily once you learn it.

Hi, I would be happy to take a side view pic of my for-sale-here (with a motorcycle thrown in) Dark Teal -it's a nice sunny day- if that would help.

BTW, I read a piece in the current Laptop about Paint.net and just downloaded it. I noticed Gimp at their site as well. How do these compare or are they the same thing?

heh well.. Frankly I SHOULD switch to paint.net since I'm a windows user but some of my systems run linux within which paint.net is not supported. paint.net has a few less features(few and far between) the features you'd miss would be mainly for a heavy user that makes fancy fractals and splash patterns and that **** but it runs much smoother with a much faster startup(gimp can take up to 5 minutes depending on ur system). I just haven't switched over and I have all my brushes and fonts in gimp. Pretty painless but I'm a lazy ass.

LoL at ZMan... well played sir I use that on my cousin and he gets pissed.

Well I couldn't find a side shot of a teal in

images and I need the brand+model of the rims or a side shot of nate's with them on it. So if u wanna post a pic with a 90 degree sideshot that'd be perfect.

Here's an example of what I need and something I did in like < 10 mins just for fun.

This side view isn't perfect by any means but I used it.

This is a pretty good view of the rim I didn't even scale it though I just dragged the corner to fit.

This is the end product for a VERY rough sketch of how it'd look with gunmetal Ultraleggera's

A more finished version... Ready to do urs whenever... lol

I'll see what I can do for finding other pics...

rim...

It doesn't have to be perfect by any means... just to give him an idea.

See if this works, and I've now added this profile to my album for my for-sale-here '92 Teal

.. they're 16"s on mine.

dannal1113 · #12 10-01-2010, 03:01 PM

I can change the colors however u want I think the bronze is quite a bit to light

Rodolfo · #13 10-01-2010, 03:19 PM

Nice work! Could you do one with the original tone? I like the Teal with the light silver wheels, and if I were to keep the Teal, I'd powdercoat mine in the lighter tone.

BTW, that car looks amazing! It's hard to believe everyone isn't all over that did-I-say-it's-for-sale-here treasure!

Thanks a ton guys! He had decided to buy them anyway before seeing pics, but still helps a bunch as I'll be meeting up with him tomorrow.
They are 17's, my bad.
