Default Just messing around in photoshop (BORED)

*******THESE ARE NOT MY CARS, ENGINE OR SEATS********

This is just a mock up of my next El Co. I photoshoped all the images again the car, motor and seats are not mine. I got the seats and the engine off a post from here. Hope I don't offend anyone. *shrugs shoulders*

let me know what you all think!

this is the original of the el co


What I am going for


I will try to get close as possible

I can dig it. I'm not largely into the big wheels but to each their own. Would be a neat car.

Leave the accents in the seats but I say leave the dash and door pannels all black. Looks far to tuner to have them painted. I like it otherwise.

I agree, subtle accents to carry the color scheme turn out better more often than not. Start off slow, and add more color one piece at a time. It's easy to go overboard and you can always go back and add more later on if you're not happy. Either way sounds like a fun project!

I agree also..... after looking at it a few times i felt something was not right or either missing. I think its the panels. I will remove the orange on the panels and check it out.

Thanks all!

Maybe try leaving just around the outside of the door? That might look good and wouldn't be in your face all the time.

I think it might actually look ok if you painted just the door pull handle itself and nothing else. Maybe not. It's tough to really say without seeing it done. I wish I had photoshop so I could play around with ideas like these.
