Hey guys. I was hoping some of you could give me a hand. I am in the process of painting my 86C/S and I would like some of you to show off some of your photoshop skills. Because God knows I suck at it.

The first pic is a picture out of the 86 sales brochure. I would like someone to take the second pic and make it have the same paint scheme as the brochure pic. The differences are, I would like the yellow to be black, and the black to be sublime. (Flat on the hood if that is possible..)

If you need a larger pic, please let me know and I can send it to you.

Thanks so much, guys! Enjoy!

Would be way easier if you had a better pic of the brochure car pic...

By better I meant no glare, a tad lighter, etc, not larger.... but if you dont have a scanner it will do

I don't see why it has to be so perfect? I just have that car as an example of the scheme.. Not the colours.. I don't care about decals or anything like that. I only want the car to have the same type paint scheme.. Just change the colours around..

Get me a better scan and I can detail the headlamps, ducts, etc on the fascia ;)

Nono.. I had the second picture (The Red One) up there so you could use THAT one as the after pic. I see what you mean by the first one being a crappy pic for chopping... I just had the brochure pic up there as an example..

Sorry if I did not make that clear!
Thanks!

Thanks for that. I was about to use that pic for this thread, however I thought it would be an odd angle to see the detail. My car is not T-Top, so I have to kinda squint and imagine the door surround and roof green! LOL ;)

Looks funky.. Kinda funky good..

Thanks!

Would it be possible to make the T-Tops green as well as the door moulding?

Sorry if I am putting you out too much.. It is just a thought that came through my head today...

Wow, I really like that... I was going to go Sublime with a strobe stripe, but I think that looks better and easier... LOL

Feel free to add any other high impact colours in that theme.. How the hell do you do that?!
