Photoshop request.... - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Reaper1a · 02-17-2010, 03:47 PM

Hello to any and all that can help....I'm in the process of designing painted stripes to replace the vinyl ones. Anyway, I am not at all versed in the details of photoshopping and need some help

I have my very poor attempt at photoshopping as a reference for the color I'm looking for, but the design is where I'm coming up short.

Essentially, I'm wanting a hockey stripe that extends down the bumper, in front of the side marker light (as in my PS pic) but that cleanly flows/tapers into the lower body line of the front fascia of the LT, not SS. I also want it outlined in pinstripes and extending all the way to the rear quarter panels (like the length of the stock ones).
Also include the hood spears.

Help from anybody on this would be MUCH appreciated

This is the color I'm looking for:

I think your pic looks awesome.

what exactly do you mean by "cleanly into the lower body line of the front fascia"?

Reaper1a · 02-21-2010, 11:22 PM

well, there's the lower body line on the bottom of the front. On the SS it wraps around farther, but on the V6 it doesn't. So I was wanting some ideas/creations of having the hockey stick flow into that. In my PS, the stick meets up with the extra body line of the SS which doesn't exist on the LT.

I have a "blurry" image of what I'm looking for in my head, but having trouble generating a concrete version, hence the reason for the request. I'm looking for some creativity.

If my description needs more explanation then let me know, but right now that's the best I can answer.....just wanting something original/unique to get painted, and I'm having a creative block at the moment, lol

heres a few reaper. the second one just kinda popped into my head so id figure i would see how it looked

That looks good but i'm gonna warn you now you are gonna be looking at a whole lotta money to get that done if you are gonna get it done right. I'm dropping my car off for custom paint on Monday and i'm looking at just over $3,000. The thing with your design is they will essentially need to sand the panels that have the stripe, (maybe) shoot it with paint, do the stripes, and then reclear almost the whole car (hood, both sides). I'm sure it'll look awesome when it's done though!!

Reaper1a · 02-28-2010, 10:43 PM

What's everyone think about this idea?

DevilKnightFalcon · 03-01-2010, 11:39 AM

Hmm not my thing but if you like it that is what matters so go for it!
