Race Car Photoshop Help

[Magellan]

Hey guys I was wondering if anybody could help me out with some design ideas for our car..We like the blue so try to keep that in there, but otherwise feel free to do what you want. Thanks

You have any other pics with more of the car in the photo? Cool looking car by the way - what class is it in and what type of car is it?

I would love to do some designs for you, would like a different pic IF you have one.

i will get some pics up later today. its a 1600 car. 2 seat with a VW dual port 1600 cc engine. Thanks for the help.

here's a couple pics. Thanks

Here is my first design - tell me what you think and maybe offer some suggestions . . .

I like this, but it was hard to get all of the decals separate from the blue.

wow your really good! i like the design too, you dont have to leave the decals though, if its possible you can cover all of them up. if its not too much trouble could you try using blue as the main color and something similar to the bright yellow we have and some black? you could even use the same design you have just the different colors...IF its not too much trouble.
Thank you very much!

[Hazmat Ranger]

Will do - thanks also.

Thanks again!

I did a bunch of research on various cars in your class - there is not much creativity out there in the way of designs on the cars. Some look good, but most are single or 2 color at best with minimal graphical content.
If you have a favorite car design, send me a pic and I will work it into another design. And as far as what I can do - give me enough time and I could have a Ranger body on it crossing the finish line before Ivan Stewart - LOL. And NO I am not going to do that :icon_rofl:

Anyway - any other suggestions - throw them out and I will see what I can do.

[Hazmat Ranger]

Ok one more - reversed main colors, new scheme and some flames . . .

If you go to this link there are 3 pages of pictures of a car that is White, red and Black. could you do a design like that but change the red to blue?
Thank you!

[Hazmat Ranger]

Here you go - best I could do with the hood - hard to get it symmetrical and look good.

be dam carefull using ANY of tracksides photo's in ANY way that have his watermark on them. AS trackside WILL SUE the pants off of you.


looking good hazmat!

Thanks - plenty aware of the issues - in this case it would not be Trackside but the owner of the car we borrowed the graphics from. But since he is only testing ideas and not actually applying the scheme to his vehicle we are good all around. Thanks for the tip, helps those that do not know or understand the issues.
