photoshop contest ... feedback of my VIBE?

Post by nadir »

well, i don't think there's a prize... just for fun.this month, it was a picture of a VIBE. I am about to submit it, already spent enough time on it lolI thought i'd share it with the VIBE community.original pic:what I ended up with (rally!):some of the mods I "installed" are the following:- 'Fire Red' with golden pearl paintjob- OEM style CF hood- OZ wheels- cleaner bodykit (front bumper , added sideskirt, rear bumper) - why does pontiac so many things sticking out of the car??- 20% tint all around- shaved antenna and door handles- intercooler - turbo charged!- clear/tinted headlights- tinted tails- side mirror blinkersWhat do you guys think? i wnatd to drop it but i figured i'd stay the "rally" look. Also notice the lack of brakes lol ... i will go back and add em in , i've got all month to submit this anyways. I also left the grill the way it was because I know that's the "pontiac" style.btw, great community here.

Looks pretty cool! I would drop it low, throw in some nice brakes, maybe add a little something to the hood so it's not OEM style, and I would probably use different wheels. I would put something in the background too if you want to win! Looks pretty darn good so far though, and those are just my $0.02!

Looks kick (removed) lol, if it was an 04 and my Vibe had a carbon fibre hood, you'd have almost copied mine.Now I'm no computer artist but those rims, they look cool but the "disc" behind them? just looks a little weird to me.

You might check out this link to GMInsideNews Design Contests --> http://forums.gminsidenews.com...p?f=9There's a weekly photochop contest with an assigned pic, featuring anonymous voting by forum members as well as a monthly design contest for (scanned) drawings and photochops.You do have to register and log in, in order to vote or post comments. Entries are emailed, so technically you don't have to register in order to enter.The skill level varies from 'professional' right on down the scale... to (I'm guessing) elementary schoolers with MS-Paint.

Nice job, although I personally don't care for the carbon fiber hood thing, always makes me thing it's a replacement hood from a junkyard the owner couldn't afford to get painted the right color. Probably because I have had cars with junkyard body parts of the wrong color So where is this contest, we've seen your entry in the chop a Vibe contest, where can we go see the other entries too?

You did an excellent job, kudos to you nadir. I bet it took alot of patients, time and not including that you've mastered the ability to use a program like that! Good work and good luck with the contest!
