SoSleeks Official Photoshop (Chop) Request Thread.

Jabraltar, this was an easy one

[SoSleek]

Parkc96, here is your stripe...also a pretty easy chop. What do you think?

[SoSleek]

Akfahad, you're going to need to post a better pic. It wouldnt even be worth the time to chop that pic because overall the pic is tiny...not only that but the car is so far back in the photo, that it makes it even smaller.

[SoSleek]

yaddadaimsayin, Here are a couple of your car. I know you wanted to see how it would look on coils, but didn't specify how low you would like it. I assumed you'd just want to see it with no wheel gap, so i made the tires about even with where the fenders start.

Speedy, if you would like to be able to see the difference between glossy and matte black and CF, etc you will need much better pics than provided. I will need pics that you can see the glares and reflections on the hood. Otherwise no matter how I make it black, it will look matte black because the pics show no reflections. BTW, decide which combination you would like to see, because I'm not going to do each combo on 3 pictures. That would take a long time I would consider sticking with just one of the finishes you listed (Carbon Fiber, Gloss or Matte Black). Mixing and matching will give it a unfinished/half assed look. You want it to be consistent so it doesn't look like you cheaped out. Let me know and I will finish your chops.

Thank you so very much for the chop. That looks incredible. I know for sure now that I'm going to have to go for the black paint job.

No prob, What's the story on that car? Is it yours? What year/model is it?

[yaddadaimsayin]

really appreciate the work, sleek. looks like I'll need to get some bigger wheels before slamming it

SpeedySolara, OK so I was bored and decided to give it a go with the photos you had posted, even though the quality wasnt there. I decided to try pulling some of the existing reflections from the hood the best i could and then enhanced them even more by pulling some of the reflections in the glass on the windsheild and tweaking them to fit the hood. I think it gave good results. From there I adjusted the reflections, and blurred/darkened them to give the hood a Matte finish. Let me know what you think. This took quite a while, so I hope you are OK with just the one photo I adjusted. I chose the one that showed all of the panels you request the best.

^^^ matte black FTW! lol and thank you sosleek i had completely forgotten about that idea until i saw that, i kind of like it what does everyone else think? and i think a gloss black stripe would be sweet.

Jabraltar, this was an easy one

Thanks SoSleek...I forgot that I posted in here with the request and it's funny because I went ahead and did it already and it turned out identical to what you made of it Thanks again for your time and here's the actual result so some of you guys can realize how accurate his photoshop skills are to the real thing...

[SoSleek]

No problem, wish I woulda had the time to get it done for ya before you did it, so you could see what it would look like, but it looks like it turned out sick anyways! Do you have any finished pics? I'd like to see it without the mask, although I don't mind the choice of paper used at all. Was that you keep you entertained between coats? haha

[Jabraltar]

No worries! It came out really well except I didn't take the tape off between coats and the Plasti-Dip peeled around the edge, so I ripped it off a couple weeks later because it made me nuts lol I didn't take any pictures because it didn't turn out as well as I wanted, but I plan on redoing it eventually.

As for the choice of paper...I ripped up a Maxim in the thought of my fellow SG members to give them a little extra when I posted the pics

damn i wish i knew how to photoshop. that chop of speedy's solara is sick! same with the work on mine. I'm trying to find lines that make it looks uneven but its practically flawless.

I am a perfectionist...that's why I never want to start a project. haha. It's a good/bad thing. I hope to get a job one day utilizing my photoshop abilities to the full potential. Right now I am a graphic designer...but working for the marketing team at an electrical distributor doesn't allow me to tap into my full potential. I'd love to work for a company like West Coast Customs rendering upcoming project vehicles for celebs.
