Need An Epic Photoshop Done - Competition

[trackracer88]

For the more experienced photoshoppers I have a huge job that I need done. I need images of my commodore as it will look for Superlap, design sketches if you will, to present my sponsors with. The problem is, the car does not look anything like what the finished product will. Basics? I need a colour change, wide-body kit, wing, wheels, lowered stance and more. I can supply images or you can use others if you find them more suitable (the car's front and rear will be based on a pre-existing kit, though modified somewhat). Please, only experienced photoshoppers apply, I know how to chop wheels or change colour myself, it's the bigger things like the kit and wing that I struggle with.

Submit your best photoshop effort of any image, and the person I choose will have the details of my car's visuals (this is information I am trying to keep as quiet as possible). This car is being built in secret as a surprise attack on Superlap, so I can't give away too many details.

Good luck to anyone who enters.

So im going to be entering a competition and IF i win i get to have details of ur car....hmmmm please do explain why would anyone want details of a BOAT (commodore) in a skyline forum???

[trackracer88]

Insult it if you want, that's the whole point of the build. If a "boat" as you call it can take the fight to Australia's best Skylines, hopefully the Skylines will step up their game. The whole point of this build was not to prove what a great car Commodores are (they're really quite shit), but to prove that the Australian cars aren't developed enough. Hopefully a Commodore competing at this level will make people such as yourself angry enough that they go out and develop their cars further in an effort to beat it.

As for those interested in the photoshopping, I see this more as a chance for someone to show off their skills, rather than "hey everyone, a commondore is a great prize". It's meant more as a "look what I can do with photoshop" kind of thread. I just figure that offering a prize will bring out people's competitive nature. It's not about what you win, it's about being the one who won.

dude... it was done at superlap this year... the boat did not come close

cyber evo 1.30

r34 gtr 1.34

v8 supercar 1.40

and it was done 20 years ago in group a racing... so it is you commodores that need to get your act together.

and its not the skylines you have to compete with, as they are in a different category with the evo's and rex's,

being RWD... you will have to compete with the panspeed RX7 and the like..

good luck.

Trying to keep this thread on track, but must I point out. We all know about the "parity" rules of V8 supercars. These rules keep one car from getting an advantage over the other. None of the other cars at Superlap were built with these rules in mind. You really don't think a V8 could develop more than 700HP? And tell me that you honestly think it ran as much downforce as the Evos were running, not a chance. There are 100 other parity rules I could go into, but it doesn't matter. I can see too many people getting pissy about this, so I'll just take it elsewhere.

[NZM.031]

no its all good fun... power doesnt matter... grip and cornering is the most important.. you have to remember its R compound tyres... and regardless of the rules of V8 supercars... those things are farking quick around the track.. and have oodles of money spent on development.

they have to have downforce to keep the 285 slicks on the tarmac.. but put R compound semis on them and they fall into a heap.

i look forward to seeing your car there next year.

not having a digg, but why are you try to point out that "Australian cars aren't developed enough" with a 20somthing year old car?

i thought that VE's and FG's were now up in the world playing field.

I asked a mod to close this thread, I realise I've stepped on a few toes, my apologies. I'm not going any further with this thread as I can see that more and more people are getting pissed off with me. Anybody actually interested in how I intend to make a 20 year old POS into something decent will probably find it on some rubbish Commondore site. Please, don't bother replying to this topic telling me I'm wrong, I get that people don't like the car, just let the thread die.

Maybe in the first place you should have asked in a rubbish whoremmodore site to save u some time.

Maybe I should have, you're right. But as we all know, the majority of Commonwhore owners can barely type, let alone photoshop. I joined this site because Skyline guys know way more about getting power out of the RBs, have a look at how many 1000HP VLs there are, then how many 1000HP Skylines. Clearly you guys are doing things better.

Regardless, please no more posts in this thread. I realise I did the wrong thing, I don't need reminding.
