I saw an Epson printers car that was pretty trick. Bugatti to be exact. My brother says its insane. He says, let's wrap my car something like that. Well.. If your gonna do something that's already been done.. Better add a bit or else... Right?

Progress below...
I'll have to clip some zoomed details tomorrow cause this image is small.

It's OK.
But if you have to show bigger pix since we can't read it from the thumbnail, your message is obscure.
It would have a lot more "oomph" if you did the 1-888-GRAPHICS in white, in a straight line not stacked, at the back above the tire.
Love...Jill

Maybe the name could go along the rocker so it doesn't cover your nifty design.

I like the original.

Sounds like this is your personal car, so it's not going to be a traveling billboard, right? I'm a fan of subtle...looks good

Did you do the graphics?

This is actually for my brothers car and its not meant to be a billboard or advertise at all. It's one of those fun things you can do with your printer.

I have some more sneaky plans for this thing. I need to rework some things to incorporate a gun and some max max style fender wells. See below for zoomed

I like what you have done ..The gun ? well no my cup of tea but I do like the steel plating on the Bugatti.. Steampunk art looks cool and current seems these days

Someone wrapped a Bugatti?

If I had one I would wrap it. If for nothing mare than to protect the paint. People wrap them all the time. Granted it wouldn't be a "regular wrap" it'd be a -in the shop and dismantle everything down to the sheet metal and wrap each part and then re-assemble- NO cutting on the car- wrap. You'll find tons of exotics under full vinyl wraps.

Wow.......

All done from scratch in PS?

If I ever win the lottery....I'll give you $1M to teach me your PS skills. lol

Why so much? You could learn that kind of layering in a couple hours just playing around. I did stuff like that in computer graphics 118 which is a freshmen intro course for all art and architecture majors, and that was over ten years ago. Use Lynda.com if you want someone to teach you, that and tv.adobe.com.

Not trying to denigrate there's just nothing particularly challenging going on, it's all really simple technique.

Gun gone. I'll dial in the rest soon enough.

Pat- I used one stock photo of a gear and shock. Stuff like this is actually pretty easy, you just need to learn layering/light/brushes. Grab some books/magazines about photoshop effects. Once you have read enough, you'll be like an encyclopedia of effects that makes your own styles and techniques.

Drawing from scratch is trick part and making your own brushes to make your job easier. I'm sure people would kill for my private brush collection but I'd never give them up.

Art! Hot and fresh.
some girl I know has been practically begging to give me PS lessons, so I'll have to take her up on it.

bow chicka bow wow.

I like it, the smoke is a little too heavy imo but i like the colors, i would try to accent the layered plates though, make them stand out more.
