Title: Some of my photoshop works...56K woah.
Post by: M42Technik on August 20, 2007, 01:36:41 PM

I wanted to make this thread to document all the stuff I've done in Photoshop over the years, E30/BMW oriented of course, tons of other stuff was assignments and such. First my other stuff, then my car specifically...

Based off some S2000 pictures, but with an E30 Cabrio instead of an S2000:

TJ wanted to see a two-tone CF ride after he got his CF sunroof:

Photoshopped M-Technic II skirts on this kit to see what it looked like, if you visit their site you can see their sideskirts:

An art project for my class. 2000x2000 at 150dpi. 59.2 MB, 40 channel selections, 9 group folders, 29 layers, 4 text layers, 20 adjustment layers. This was created from 7 images morphed together and some custom stuff I made, like the flag, the BMW ad boxes and such...

Wish I knew how to do that.

On those subtle differences, it's like that game where you're trying to figure out what's different between the picts....cool.

your photoshopping is impressive i must say.  i've never gotten a chance to play with the program before.  will you please camouflage your car?


lets see, the differences in the last picture...

pic 2 has a slightly lower drop, no OZ sticker, yellow fogs, a piece is taken out in the front valence in the "mouth" part, you deleted the windshield washer nozzles (which i guess you dont really need), shrunk the side mirrors, painted the strut brace black, and then added the mono wiper, except the shadow from the original pass. side wiper is still there, hehe.  did i miss anything? :D

Doorlock shaved, M-Tech II front lip extended (just the bottom piece) a little bit, no gas door wedge. I did leave the shadow, you are right, I guess I need to go back and fix that. Thats about it.

Not too shabby:cool:.

My big transition was combining Illustrator and Photoshop skills. Really helped me design wise.

Tip: Use Select>Feather on your selections when moving a part of an image, some of them look choppy to a trained eye.;)
