Re: My First Ever Chop

Remove that &*%#ing japanese signal from the side of a vette. I am not a anti-import person, cause I love alot of them, but that is just rice with a character on the side of a domestic car.

The Vette is an All American treasure....what were you thinking putting that Chinese symbol on the side men????????
That's like having a BIG JUICY STEAK with rice......doesn't go together!!!

I like rice with my steak (red beans and rice )

Anyways, even though it's your first chop that just doesn't belong. You put a Chinese symbol on an American icon that has a British Racing green color (I like the color)...

Work on it a little more. You'll come up with something better.

There is that better? What do you think of the rest of the car and not just the decal?

Re: My First Ever Chop

well i would like to say for a fist time its ok, what i would advice u is to try do more for eg use tut sites like www.photoshopjunkie.com or www.digimods.co.uk and etc. also do larger res chops. im glad that u made a try at chopping rather than just make a thread here by and saying: "give me tut sites and tell me what i can do" so any help u need feel free to ask me i'll try to help u. btw on the 2nd version of corvette if flames were other way around they would make more sense IMO

Lightbulb Try This

Select the Graphic (Lasso)>Free Transform>Right Click>Flip Horizontally

Done

If the flame was pointing to the left then it would be sweet. Try to also change the color of the rims!

Nice Job,

I just finished a Scion tC!

Re: My First Ever Chop

I agree. You need to use better resolution pictures. Luckily for you, my signature has them. Never put a jap symbol on the side of American beauty. Also, would you choose your colors a little more carefully. You need some tutorials.
