tacker Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Ok have been motivated to get my old car painted for new season. Base color has been done but spomser wants flames on the car ...something to do with the girls new uniforms :-) so which color out of the 3 concepts do you think.

Roy Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 No flames. I think a bold black stripe along the lower edge/side of the car with aggreko.com cut out to reveal the body colour. Accross the boonet a bold black strip just above where the side indicators would be, as it gets to the top edge it tapers back towards where "com" is on your side skirt to join the bold line at the bottom. Then under the bonnet stripe throw the big filters sticker.

Plus i have to suffer through a photo shoot of the girls and the car......and some hot laps with the ladies! anyone want to take my spot hmmmm. also a better pic of the color Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/185605-what-color-choice-of-3/#findComment-3363477 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 LOL..it works. I just looked up the aggreko website. Do they have any jobs going for other engineers that love to thrash Skylines ... and be photographed with attractive young lasses Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/185605-what-color-choice-of-3/#findComment-3363599 Share on other sites More sharing options...

m3gtr Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 i know im only teaching art to uni kids but please do me a favour... the original blue you had in your first post strikes a great contrast but its too bold. Try adding some yellow to the flames section so you have a blue and yellow on orange type effect. it will look vibrant but the yellow wont over power either colour. just think of the bunsen burner we used to use in chem clases..blue is the hottest followed by orange and yellow... remember the choice of hues is important, too. id love for you to do a photochop to see how it comes out in your renditions! GL! looks like a great project by the way! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/185605-what-color-choice-of-3/#findComment-3363877 Share on other sites More sharing options...
