THE DRAGS REVISITED!!

[KCsledz]

I finally found my pictures of the hamb drags! They were tucked away in a box in my grandmothers attic! I couldn't believe that she kept them after all of that time! More are comming tonight!

[MR BONES]

THAT IS SO COOL!!!! More, more, more please!!!!!!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Deyomatic]

Even the background is hot rods, no late model stuff to ruin the antique look.

[KCsledz]

If anyones car shows up in one of this series of photos that I will work on tonight then, I will be more than happy to get you a high res version of your car via email. Just let me know!

[MR BONES]

Will you do one of Denise in Big Olds? I know for a fact it would make her very happy http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[KCsledz]

ya, if you get me the picture I will antique it up!

[beatnik]

How about this one it's one of my fav's.

[buzzard]

If that picture of Denise doesn't sum up what hot rodding SHOULD be about, then I don't know what would.

Post more of the antique pics when you can. That's neat.

KC-

what program are you using to get that look?
I have been looking for something exactly like that for some time.....
thanks-
HC

[KCsledz]

Its photoshop!
Color photo converted to greyscale then converted to duotone. Pick your pantone colors for the duotone.
Convert back to cmyk.
I then used some special photoshop brushes that I either acquired or made myself and applied them to the top.

[KCsledz]

nother one

[Roothawg]

Do ya have any pics of the Fly? If not, that's cool too. I just wanna see what it looks like in sepia or whatever that is.

[KCsledz]

nother, the FLY is on its way! But for your viewing pleasure here is the rambler run off.

[Roothawg]

You rock.....

[KCsledz]

HERE IS THE FLY

[plan9]

hot damn sonny!! that ride is tight!

[Rocky]

Rambler run off.....I love it. Woulda looked like 1965 except for that little white car at top left....thanks for the memories.
The "Fly" appears to be caught in the flypaper of 1959.

[KCsledz]

last one for the night. You all should remeber the smokenist burnout king. Clean burnouts every time!

[SamIyam]

Those are freakin' bitchen!!
Is there any way I could coax one out of ya for the BFD??? Are you selling them? Once again, neat work... it takes talent to even dream up what it would look like in the first place...

Maybe you should talk to the guys at TRJ... they did a similar thing for last years round-up... antiqued the pics... maybe you, ryan and jim can put something together...

Thanks again for sharing,
Sam.

hey rocky, the white car can be taken out of the image http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif then you will have your 1965 digs

[KCsledz]

This one is for denise. And yes rocky anything can be airbrushed out. Removing the car would be no problem!

Sam, I have a grip of images of the digger and many more. It might take through the weekendto finish them up.

Like I said before if you wand the picture of your car I will gladly email you a hi-res jpg that you can use for whatever.

[KCsledz]

[SamIyam]

Cool!
I love it!
Sam.

[sodbuster]

KCSledz, Any way that I could talk you into "Age-ing" these pix from the drags? Your pix have turned out great, they look like they were found in an ole' shoebox.

Thanks,

Thanks again......

Great work KCSledz. I've got a whole bunch of pics from The Rat Rod Day over the weekend. I might have to do the same thing to them. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Sodbuster - you might want to check with Jim that it's OK to modify his pics. I think he shoots pics for a living. Would be polite, that's all. (They would look great all patina'd up though. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif)

[KCsledz]

Chris,
If you get the OK from Jim and can get the pictures preferrably in a high res format I would have no problem ruffin them up for you. Then you will have them in a version worthy of printing out to hang in the shop living room, ect. You live close enough to where I can get you a disk in the mail pretty easy.
