yeah, i showed at HIN yesterday and now the mod bug has got me itchin' again...



something like this maybe? I'd like to incorporate nautical blue, black sand, and silver streak/classic silver.

i already know from the above picture that the silver part towards the rear of the car is too thick along the sideskirt. I'd thin it by 6-12" the rear silver part... the top of it flows w/ the body line, same with the top part of the black.

should i outline the colors with something?

throw some suggestions out there guys :D

hmm... maybe outline the CSM with BSP, and the BSP with CSM?

Neothin

as it stands right now... the csm is outlined w/ bsp..

now to outline the BSP w/ csm... should the outline flow into the CSM part, or should the bsp outline not be broken?

How about a drop shadow? I like Dave's idea too.

Neothin

drop shadow?

captainlaziness

Yeah, it would be a total outline, more like a shadow of the shape.

captainlaziness

Neothin

it all makes sense!

so ummm.... do a black shadow for the CSM and a CSM shadow for hte black?

Decided to give you guys a better visual of how it might look. Hope you enjoy. If you come up with new ideas for this design I wont mind doing updates to reflect those ideas.

Neothin

eh, now that i've seen it... it just looks too...... plain?

I dont know, i dont think random shapes of color is going to do it. anyone have an ideas on how to spruce it up a bit? figure i've got about $5k to play with, so custom airbrushing is certainly possible.



btw, thank you for the chop

shadow12one

No problem, bored at 1 AM. What else am I to do? lol

scion_jon

so paint for sure or vinyle?

nauticac

I don't think it looks too plain. BUT, I would definitely thin it out some so it doesn't look too fat. Other than that I think it looks nice.

captainlaziness

I like it, but the it needs to be played around with a bit more.

i think harrison will pick paint, i dont belive hes a big fan of vinyls...

trdtcpr

how about a japanese sun from the rear pannel in ssm/csm outlined with bsp

Neothin

not really feeling the jap stuff. I'm not a big fan of the JDM things..

yes, it would all be paint. Vinyl is a no no for me.

El_Jorge

...............I gots some ideas. Needs to get home to the Photoshop

Neothin

heh, jorge, i love you

but yeah, i was playing around in PS and just using the render clouds filter using black and nautical blue as the colors turned out nicely. I can't even begin to imagine how much something like that would cost to paint though....
