Just found out that something is missing.

Right air intake on the front bumper...

Yeah, i know that, i was a little lazy and still forgetting that :P

Is that what you wanted?

Any questions about theme are welcome.

//sorry about mistake in description, there is "game" instead of "anime"

Eh, thanks all

I really didn't expected that, all the time i think that this was my "weak" one.

Theme for the next round was successfully sent to AndRo btw

Quote from Lynce :

Raito, andRo, C40Z and Schuppor = The kings in this thread.

Astonishing works. Atention to detail, perfect balance of the colours and impressive presentation.

Thanks, you forget about one :P Lynce

If Lynce says "nothing special" on his great work i would say "absolutelly nothing" on this new mine

Quote from Billeh :

Hi i would like to ask you a major favour I love your vector drawing and would like to put it on a t-shirt which i can make at work but i would like you to edit it a little for me.

Would it be possible to have the car itself at the same angle but without any of the shadowing behind the car and under the front bumper. Also could you take the writing off or if you like you could leave your signiture in same font and size and place it bottom right just under the wheel?

I will understand if you dont agree but i thought i would ask anyway I will upload photo of the finished t-shirt so you can see your work

Thou would be possibile, just a question: Why?

I will try to do that tomorrow

Voted.

Quote from bahambug :

i saw a few other nascar ones but none of kasey kahne ive done some editing to have one now i would like it to be on the fourm so people online could see it

Just one thing please, do not use MS Paint anymore for the skins

People visiting this forum will see it, not players racing online, you know?

Quote from lukelfs :

Currently working on my first vector of the Pan Speed RX7



I'm finding it hard to do the lighting/shadows on the car, and the headlights

Any tips?

Nice work you done

I'd preffer to start with something easier, like the car without decals and tuning, with so less mirrored objects as possibile And starting with angle of view like mine seems easier to me

If you want to draw RX7 FD i personaly reccomend to try this first http://upload.wikimedia.org/wi ... ons/5/5f/Mazda-RX7-FD.jpg

Quote from zeromussov :

A question about the spinning rims, how to do this properly when the picture isn´t taken from the side. (so when the wheels ain't perfectly round)

From the side it's quite easy to do this with radial blur, but if the picture is taken a bit more from the front it doesn't work obviously. (rims are 'oval' then and the blur get's messed up)

Dunno others but I personaly use Smudge Tool If you play a little with it on mlutiple layers combining different types of blending styles you can get amazing stuff

i bought a cheap Acer Laptop for my work (PHP developer & graphics designer) so i can take it whenever i want, it's not a gaming laptop exactly but it can run few of them... LFS on max

Quote from jrd.racer :

Here is an edit I did using This picture.
hope its not too bad

Nice edit Only thing i dont like is that text

Quote from Matrixi :

Nice work. I started an R32 vector over a year ago aswell, but never bothered finishing it.

Quote from Fuse5 :

and i drew this 2 years ago when i started experimenting with markers :P

OP - nice vector! could do with some more shades in the front bumper area, which looks a bit pale right now, but other than that, nice work

Both very nice ones ... Fuse5: I will improve it, i dont like the roof and windows and i possibily add some light tuning on it

Few screens

Quote from logitekg25 :

this looks like a fun thing to try

where do i start

1. Take a big huge breath
2. Tell your family that you are leaving for the rest of the day
3. Open photoshop
4. Find some picture of what you want to draw
5. Play

If you dont know how to use Pen Tool then look for some tutorials, google knows but personaly i learned a lot myself while "just messing around"

Hello racers

I spend my whole day today to make this one car in PhotoShop, using only vector masks. It's my first vector art, so it has thundreds of bugs im currently lazy to correct :P but I want to know your opinion, thanks for any

(original photo: http://www.nissan-skyline.org/i/main003.jpg)

Edit: because i'm working on next cars and others are posting their vector images i changed title of this topic

Last edited by Raito, Sat 31 Jul 2010, 08:28. Reason : Changed angle of the car, title change

Quote from Lynce :

Thank you, I'm glad you like it.

I love the pic. Very artistic.

Cheers.

Thanks, i really appreciate praise from master like you

Quote from Sharker :

wow!amazing

Thanks

Quote from logitekg25 :

the only thing i dont like about it is the taillight, the left one looks kinda weird

but if you fix that a little better, i definately want it as my background

Tell my what do you mean exactly and i will try to make it

Thanx Lynce for the revolution pack, i made a nice pics with it and this edit i made tonight holds your credit too

I was messing around a little with the blur features and some layer blendings It could be easily used as a HD wallpaper (its in 1366x768) and if anyone interested i had and original sized 1080p version

Quote from DevilDare :

OK. Here is another go with XRT.

I think the brakes look fine now. My simple solution was to cut out the inside of the rim, place it on a new layer above the wheel, blur the wheel and put layer option of the rim to "overlay" and lower the opacity to around 30%.

You can also always play around with other effects too.

A very nice one i like it...


There is really fast edit of one screen i made after demo race It took about 5 minutes but i like that cars standing there ... i would like to drive with a few people just for photo round or something

Quote from jensbrix :

Not final. Can't even decide if it's gonna be the theme of my picture, have considered a simple picture with a car just going out of control, just though this was more "original". Tell me what you think

and dont forget to clean up previous track in windows

Quote from FireMike15 :

Very cool idea raito.

Thanks

and here are the original screenshoots if anyone interested

This theme is not much good for me...
