My artist impression of the 1.2 - WIP.

[Curtis!]

Not sure if this is the right place to post it, but hey ho!

Cartoon style, been doing this sort of thing for years but never finished anything :dapprove:

Original image I'm working from:

And my progress so far:

Nothing in this is final till it's the final piece, will very likely redo that xenon to add alot more detail. I'm not happy with the badge aswell so going to play with afew different ways to do it.

Will keep this thread up to date.

I think you've mistaken pen tool for pencil tool mate, press P on the keyboard in photoshop, then go point to point creating paths, then stroke with brush.

Not as hard as it seems.

 

[Adamio]

Looks good so far

 

[Addz]

looks like hard work but should work out nice

 

[Curtis!]

Unsure which style to do it in at the moment, block gradient on the right, brushed on the left.

 

[Nick_P]

Just line drawing will look cool.

 

[Bazzon]

Good start, Do it in this style though.

No worries about MSN, will have a play with that style, very simple compared to what I'm doing at the moment. Cheers!

 

[Rob]

Left side of the bonnet for sure lad.

Good skills though

 

[BIFCAIDS]

this is a piss of piss to do, enought time spent doing it and it should be ace. heres an example of mine to aim for....

Hope this helps

 

[Marky_]

I gotta teach myself how to do this.

 

[Curtis!]

Remember seeing that on EU Mania at the start of last year or sometime awhile ago Mike, cheers

Only thing I can find on my PC atm:

Rest of the stuff is on my HD which I need to get back off a mate.

 

[Jason_E]

I see me in your screenshots

 

[Beef-Mc]

Good start there.

 

[BIFCAIDS]

headlights and grill will take forever

 

[clio whorley]

[J03]

not showing off but clearly interested in this thread thought il show you mine i did a month ago

keep up the good work

 

[Curtis!]

Woah thats awesome Joe, thanks for sharing!

Mikey, the finer details always take the most time, but it's worth it usually.

 

[m4rkie23]

WOW. that is awesome J03.

nice to see what they can become with the hard work!!!

keep it up!

 

[Murray_SL]

Wow, would love to learn how to do this any tips? what photoshop etc?

 

[Curtis!]

Any version of photoshop dude, I started out with v7 back in early 2005, then got CS2 in approx 2007 and have used that since.

Tutorials everywhere on the internet dude, it's just about putting the time into it which is something I always fall on.

 

[JD]

It can be a pressie (If I finish it...)

Update for today:

Used the xenon sat next to me for refference :approve:

Thanks

 

[JD]

With or without snow big lad?

 

[Curtis!]

Looking without I reckon, but do-able with?

What ya think?

 

[JD]

Without would be my choice.

 

[Curtis!]

Alright, no snow it is

Pretty sure a different picture would be better for a print sort of thing though dude.

Popping into the body shop I think tonight aswell to ask.

 

[peppemanca]

this looks really impressive. wish i could do this.

 

[jdh91]
