Default Photoshop God needed !

I really must learn how to do this !

I know there are some awesome PS skills on here so if someone fancies a go at this I have a big ask

Can someone please take this pic and make the car silver, change all the white advertising logos/text on the bodywork to black, change the sunstrip text to silver and change the white bit of the flame graphic to black as well

...not much then !

oooh - and stick the front wheel back on and remove the racing numbers if poss

Many thanks ! I might even send some c/f wing mirror covers for a blobeye to the person who does the best rendition

Many Thanks !

Higher res version avail by email - for some reason I can't get photobucket to host it ?

Thanks chaps, but don't talk it up just yet. It's a tricky one

I don't envy the guy who modelled and rendered it though...

The hardest part is to change the colour to silver.

Silver is very hard to re-create in PS.

Good luck mate.

Looking forward to seeing what Streebeck can do with this one - not easy by any stretch of the imagination. Shame we don;t know how did the original, be easier to re-render in a different colour than PS it.

Remember bartop, you'll need to fill your car up with Cusco bits before you can legitimately get away with stickering it up ike that.

It looks good though.

But then I think your current setup looks damn fine too.

It's not massively difficult, the hardest part by far is changing the sponsors stickers to black and making it look convincing

And you can't desaturate black... as it has no colour in it

My skills really are not up to scratch I'm afraid. Would be nice having some Carbon mirrors covers though ! Dam - Just seen they are for a Blobeye

Good luck mate, waiting in anticipation.

Just a 20 minute quickie, will finish off the full-size one later tonight





And before anyone says... I know it's a little dark, I had to cover up the rough bits with a few crafty tricks

We all need to sign up to the same night school course on photo shop !!

Quite frankly it's above my head !! lol

I guess I'll have to keep my eyes on bartops posts for his stickered scooby shortly then ?

Was'nt there 2 stickered in cusco livery on here a few weeks back ?
one new age and one classic ??
That may be of help

not bad at all mate excellent job on that front wheel btw

Can I be cheeky and ask for for the text on the black flame to be white - the suspension/clutch/lsd bit..

Plus my car is actually crystal grey so a kind of dark silver anyways..

This is looking toooo tempting...

I've seen two other blobeyes with the cusco livery on the gallery here - black one's which look pretty awesome plus scoobyDAZZA has sent me some pics of a silver classic which has prompted me to think about getting mine done...

So what do people think - would look good or no ?

Thanks Streebeck - awesome skills bud..

Bartop, if you don't already know him, I can point you in the direction of the guy who did the cars with the Cusco liveries

I didn't realise Silver was so difficult ! They're looking a bit like polished aluminium rather than metallic silver..

hang on...polished aluminium, now there's an idea....

I got interupted half way through my attempt, but I realise everyone's making the bonnet silver, whereas I noticed it was carbon and opted to leave it black. May have another bash over the W/E

Bartop, send me a nice hi-res photo of your car (already got some smaller ones from the 'Spike' stage ). It'll be FAR easier, not to mention closer to the real thing, to bang the Cusco stuff onto that than to change this one.

You should have my email, if not PM me for it.
