I'd love it if you can try to make my car into a track only 2 11'ish style monster. Chop the windsheild, roll cage, wing etc.

Thanks

THANK YOU!

Now the next question is, Does that look good? I can't decide if I like the stealthy blacked and monochrome type look or something with a little color in...and if with color, what color...

Anyone, thoughts? Try something else?

Best,

Phil

My thoughts: I love my Storm TitaniYum. But then I started going to the track. Then there was a couple of guys taking pictures. Aparantly they work the tracks. Then they show you samples and try to sell you a poster or a CD of your pics. In 99% of lighting conditions, it turns out that Storm TitaniYum looks pretty bland against a track surface with a background of dead weeds. Needed a little something colorful to make it pop. Thus I've got red wheels as you can see in my avitar. I know some people don't like it, and there are certainly other ways to add a bit of color such as stripes, but it does serve the purpose of making the car pop a bit better visually.

Hey, Chapster, got a request for you, thanks for the opportunity ...

Here's a photo I took and modified in the past ... I am capable of some 'shop work, but not sure how to do gradients, and you sound awfully willing and able. So ...

Was wondering whether you could keep the car yellow from the door seam back (including roll bar, roof, whatever), then make the front red from the doors forward. The doors I would like orange, but then a nice gradient from red to orange and then from orange to yellow. Basically, the Red-Orange-Yellow on the light spectrum.

Secondly, looking at the pic again, I thought it would be interesting to see if the wall background could be pasted onto the car, while keeping the lines of the car intact, to make it appear that the car was camouflaged to the wall, grass, and curb behind it. I have no good reason for thinking this would be interesting.
