damn man i've been watching what you've been producing lately and i have to say that your doing a really good job. I havent really commented on anything recently, i've been spending alot more time just viewing things, but i have to say your chops are flawless.

You have a unique style where you make subtle changes that somehow just change the whole look of the car.

Just a few comments on this one:

If you look at the middle section that you seem to have added, the window line doesnt quite matchup. Now i know if you use the free transform tool it'll mess up the bottom molding line, so to go about that, just copy and paste the original molding so its on its own layer, then just go back to the layer with the addition and just stretch it. Now to make sure that the moldign lines up, i'd just use the clone tool and smudge tool, to take out the one on the free transformed layer, and then just use the other one in its place so the molding lines up.

Also i'd add a new layer and just grab a reflection tone and just smooth out the reflection on the car between the left side of the car and the part that you extended so that it looks abit more natural.

Other then that man, its a fantastic job, and the only reason i gave you this much critiscism is because i know you can do it, you have a great amount of skill. Keep it up man.

Thanks for the long answer!

You're right, but I think the extension looks a bit fake in the 800x600 version. Have a look at it in the original resolution:



Here it seems correct. Perhaps I'll make it transparent...

Thanks and greetings

Yeh no problem man. Yeh it looks alot better in the original resolution image, but it still seems abit off. Not because its too high/low, but more because it seems to be at an angle compared to the other ones. I think the right side needs to be lowered a tiny bit, and the left side left just where it is. Obviously when you lower the right side everything will shift down abit,so you'll probably have to nudge everythign up by one, but other then that im sure it'll look great.

This is alot of work to do for somethign anyone will barely notice, so its up to you if you wish to do it. But i think it'll just overall complete the look of the car if you do.

Great chop as i said before.
