"Tuned" pic of my friends eclipse (photoshop)

[hemizach]

Well I've done a lot of recolors and things like that, but a friend of mine just bought a turbo eclipse and I told him it needs to sit lower and needed a splash of paint on the wheels to give it character. Decided to pop on photoshop and try some things out like messing with the background, smoking the headlights and "lighting" them up, wheel recolor, car is lowered, etc.

I know it's not a muscle car but tell me what ya think anyway. Was trying to make it look like something that would be in a tuner magazine.

Before....

After (same car and same pic)

Man, I'm so happy that you love it so much that the only thing you can do is insult my work. Don't know where you're from, but where I am from graffiti isn't just the the "ghetto".

Yet again, thanks for your kind words.

Yes sir, definitely an art in itself. Here, we have walls/building done by "pro" graffiti artists. Done completely legal, and it sure dresses things up a bit. 8)

Honestly I have a LONG way to go. I took a photo class in school too. Taught me how to use the basic tools and just started playing with it since. Kinda developed my own techniques for doing things from the starting points they gave me. It's fun stuff!

Yes, graffiti... that's what it is...

 

[hemizach]

And please explain to me how the wall doesn't act as their canvas?

'their' as in they own it? well then by all means devalue it.

You do realize that this stuff is often done on LEGAL walls and areas and artists DO have their own spot on some of these walls to work on. And that these guys are artists that are often hired to do their work?
