Was wondering if any of you experts out there could photoshop an LS-1 camaro to have a fathom green paint job as well as the 1969 Yenko Stipes and badges....pretty please?

Up top is a request thread
I'll see about working on it for ya and put the result in that thread, as long as you can provide an example of fathom green and exactly which stripes you're looking to do.

Or you could check out the GMMG Dick Harrell edition car, it has similar stripes to the Yenko. It can be seen here:

Ok so for now this is the best picture I can come up with until I get the pics of the ZL-1 from Super Chevy, the Copo, and the 68 Z-28.
That is just the color
Here is a blury picture from the Zl-1 Unveiling in LaHarpe of what a 4th gen looks like with it.
The stripes from the rear
The front....err Brian Earl Spilner not included.

Your right about the Dick Harrell Stripes looking almost alike. they just don't follow the lines the same way that I think a non wide body car would....by the way I am in the bottom of this pic talking to Matt Berger of Berger Chevy. Matt is in the Yellow shirt an I have my Auburn hat on.

Well, the Yenko lines don't quite match up with the 4th gen. I had to cut them short here in this chop. (Just a quick stab at it, nothing special, color is hard to reproduce, dark is difficult to do without loosing detail) I don't have the hood graphics on there, since I picked an SS car to work with. I'll try again with a Z28 if you want.

That pic looks great man, do you think there is any way that you could make the stripes white? And if you could try and do the stripes on the normal Z-28 hood too. I really appreciate you taking the time to do this for me. And I agree that the color is very hard to paint; hell for that matter it is hard to get a good picture but it looks beautiful in person. My ole 68 had just a smidge more blue in it, as well as more metal flake, and it looked un believeable. Good thing is that we still have three quarts of it left from sikkens so I should be good to go in the paint department. The guy that does all the work on the car collection has been teaching me how to do some amazing things, and painting, my own car will be the next step. We are even going to paint stripes on instead of just doing vinyl stickers.

Yea, the blue on the harrel is not a common color, and at first i thought it was ugly, but everytime i looked at the picture i liked the paint more and more.

okie, I turned the stripe white in the chop I did. I'll work more on these later. Kinda busy, with tomorrow being my last day of work (laid off - but have a better job lined up
)
I also toned down some of the brighter green spots.

Well thanks buddy, I appreciate you doing this for me. That looks great, and I am in no hurry to get this done so just take your time. Glad you got a better job lined up too, can't have a money shortage with these toys.

This is a little bit better, adds the hood stripes to a Z28 hood. Color looks a little better to me, I used a NBM and just shifted the colors over to green. Much better than this previous one, which was a red color change to green.

By the way that color is dead on, what ever you did it looks spectacular.
