Mark 178 Report post Posted May 18, 2009 The shiny paint is helped along a bit by the "Shadow/highlight" tool in P'shop. It is my friend. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark 178 Report post Posted May 18, 2009 Haha... yeah, I live along there. Just parked it on the street cos I was going out again. Was it over the weekend? If so, would have been going straight back out for another blast to "run in" the work done on it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apex 693 Report post Posted May 18, 2009 Thanks for the tip, looks sh*t hot man! Do it. I just got Photoshop and am learning a few things slowly, lowering with PS is nice and smooth, have been using paint to do the same for years. Sorry to highjack but does anyone have recommendations for PS tutorial tips? I have been learning off YouTube and it has been helpful but most of the tips require a basic understanding of the system.

I live just around the corner on Repton and Sam lives on Merivale lane lol small world! Yeah, I've seen Sam driving down Papanui Road quite a bit... haven't spotted the V8 though. When you live in Merivale you've gotta drive a Bimmer, it's compulsory. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
