I've always wanted to be matchy mates with Karl's car. B) The blue just looks a little gay on me! :(

I'm not an expert with ps but will work on it some more later. Here's the matt black paint so far. I'll have to b&w the pic which will give the same effect 'cos it's all dark but they had applied a baby blue filter on the original so everything is a bit blue!

...hehe... as they say, fur is murder, you know... And mine kills!!! B)

Anyway, as a black Esprit owner personally, I'd advise you class things up a bit with gold wheels at least heh. Though really I'd like to see you stay in the pastel rainbow... then you can work on transforming the interior into a matching, lame' lined wonderland :sleeping:

Heh... the rear of the C5 took about 10 years to grow on me, and by that time I had to adjust to seeing C6s without voming :( The C5 is a bit blobby by my taste, though the notchback on the Z06s does break things up a bit... My fave will always be the early 70s, or even the early (more angular) C4s :thumbsup:

I think Bibs has it covered, but if youneed any more Photoshop work done give me a shout - It's what I do for a living (what a chore!). Happy to help.

Cheers,

Sonny

Are there any particular 'how to' books, dvds or websites etc that you would recommend for PS beginners?

If you're thinking of going the matt route Karl, have you considered AlsaCorp's Soft Feel paint?

It's matt and designed to be touched. "Choose between the luxurious options of Velvet, Silk or Rubber".

The picture on the website doesn't really do it justice. There's a better illustration in the catalogue available here

There's lot's of other interesting paints in the catalogue, e.g. luminous paint, heat sensitive colours, chrome/anodised effects etc, sadly most of it would look out of place on an Esprit.

will be honest the matt route is because it really cheap and gives a hard look, with eithier light blue or gloss black accents i think it should look cool

Must admit I'd like to have a play with some of them colours. I had better get back to looking for a workshop at a reasonable rate.

I came over all nostalgic for the 70s rod & custom scene when I saw the catalogue.

I dread to think how much prep work you'd need to do a good job with the chrome. The slightest imperfection would really show. The Multichrome looks awesome, and perhaps a bit more forgiving than the straight chrome.

I quite like the idea of using a design in the luminous white over a normal white basecoat, topped with a nice candy. By day it'd just look like a plain (but nice) car, but by night the design would leap out.

More speed, less haste
