gaz Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Don't get me wrong though by saying that think you done some real goodens there!Was just gonna say doesn't look like you have used a gradient to blend the front of the punto don't know when you did it, but just making you aware that you can, if you don't know. But looks like you have on the others anyway.Also as im a bit of a Photoshop geek, I hate lens flair lol. So think you shouldd stop using that, it can affect the darkness of the whole image too.On another note you have a good eye for wheels which most people don't get right. So im pretty sure you could create lots more perfect attempts. Do one of a starlet and make sure you show us mate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gaz Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 We did a comp years ago which had an ok pic. If it's on my online photo album I will post it for you. Have a look about on here as photography on here has really excelled in the last year or so mate. Check the calendar comps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
twiggo Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 hi guys, need some help form anyone with photoshop. ive just installed a new copy and lost my carbon fibre pattern i use and now im trying to re-make it using this tutorial and its not working at all and i cant work out why. im following it exactly, ive tried everything so could someone else try it an see if it works for them??thanks in advancei only ask as im part way through this glanza photochop and want some CF bits n bobs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Digimods is how I started off, I attempted some of their comps but the forum is now closed I think we should have a monthly photoshop competition (but not on Starlets) as we tried one ages ago and alot of people joined in - something to keep us lively Its inspired me to do some chopping Quote Link to post Share on other sites
twiggo Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 yeh im using his tutorial for the carbon fibre and im following it exactly and ive been using it for like 2 years but now im trying to re-create it and its not working, driving me nuts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gaz Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Well that link is not taking me to the tutorial but im assuming it's the carbon bonnet tutorial. But that site just freezes on mine when i click it.So you can probably create you own. If you open up a new document fairly large. Edit - Fill - Black. Then either use the rectanguler marguee tool or the pen tool ect.. create a dark grey line down it. Copy that a few times. Space them evenly (should be an option at the top of the workspace) (click and hold shift on each layer to select multiple layers ) and then copy those 3 or 4 lines together and space them evenly and so on across the workspace. Then do another slightly lighter grey line across the other direction. If done correctly you might be able to create a carbon fibre effect once it is placed blended (with blend modes) and distorted/adjusted onto the area. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
twiggo Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 finished article guys. just added decals and tinkered a bit with shadows etc. ORIGINALComments and criticisms greatly appreciated even if you hate it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gaz Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Looks good mate, very good job there. Only thing I would do is put a white shine over that shine on the fron of that bonnet as it is underneath the blended carbon layer and looks dull and you can see the reflections on the rest are white. Little details make all the difference lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
