  4. That was supposed to be copper. :eek:
    May be easier to tell me if you want it lighter/darker more brown or red coloured?

    I cant help with photoshop, but if you want a really nice looking copper color, House of Kolor has copper called " Ketchme Kopper" that is the best looking copper color ever.

    Maybe I should get rid of my "PhotoDraw 2000" software and get the real deal

    Thank you

    not what you were looking for, but what I would consider. (remember this was done quick. scallops could be done well.)

    Haha, yup! :D
     
  17. Nope, don't mind at all! I do have a set of whites and taking air out of shocks would drop the back....was going for a `60's HotRod look, but it's easy enough to change it up!
     
  18. Yep! two tone green was original, then white :)

    I'm open to all suggestions!
     
  19. okay....
    Thanks gang for all your hard work so far. I'm thinking though that copper may not be it....anyone care to take on this apple green like color?
    Thanks in advance!

    I sit on Photoshop every day for about 10 hours a day for a living and my renderings NEVER turn out this nice... I almost cringe when I see the top edge of your avatar on the bottom left of my page because I know it's going to make me feel like shit! :D :p Nice work man.
     
  21. I know...that dude's just too amazing!
    I actually picked up PShop over the weekend....I'm good with computers, I'm good with art, but have NO IDEA how to change colors on a car lol
     
  22. LOL!!! I´m really, really sorry about that!:D
     
  23. Somethinglike this?

  25. The green..................go with the green. Looks killer!
     
  26. agreed
    What about dash and rear tailight area color....white? black? EWWWW...
