Well, I recently started doing some pictuning, very noobish, but it's quite fun when the result is there. So I began to wonder if there are any LFS racers that do this kinda stuff, and I can't really remember there ever was a thread about it.

So if anyone would want to share their creations, I'd love to see them!

Do you mean pictuning as in modifying a picture in photoshop?
If you do ive done a fair few cars and some removed things from photos for people but thats about it. Links aren't that great as they are about a yr old and ive not done any new ones.

Edit - That better, can see the pictures now? Can you spot the differences?

Well if you mean cars...heres some of my older ones which i just got from me repaired external HD.

Greboth, are you sure that those links are right?

Wahaha, I see no differnce in the pics Greboth! illepall

Heres a few more, one of them was a vain attempted to improve the Z4s styling. (Greboth edited out the cretin in the corner)

I loath pictuning

I bet i can change your mind, if you see some quality pieces of work rather than my poor efforts.

Just a few examples, far better to ruin a picture of the car than to actually ruin a real one.

you do a good job on that quicksilver, im quite impressed

i tried doing that stuff for a little while back when i used to edit pictures and make skins but.. haven't touched stuff like that in forever

Same here, i really only did those cars to learn more stuff on photoshop. Now i have so i don't do those cars often, probably about 2 per year max.

I used to think it was stupid too, but now I learned more about it, it's quite fun. Guess it's time for me to show one of my edits too! It isn't great, bad colour, but I like it, it's the third I did or so, so don't mind it.

My mother always told me that if I couldn't say anything nice, it was best to say nothing at all.

Oh, I just thought that you accidentally put wrong pics in your post

After looking at them again I see that the person in the background has disappeared

Oh, haha, spot the noobs! /me hides

Found a new thing, I can get on his nerves with on the servers then, after the "crashed few laps before finish with comfortable lead in OLFSL race" became old.

I don't really care, I just do it to do something, the first steps in pictuning is cleaning a car, so I did as much as I could, and on a pictuning forum, they told me the cleaning was done very well, so ha!

Gonna start a new car now, won't be showing it anymore though

OK, sorry, I take it back. I didn't mean to put you off pursuing this form of artistic expression, I was just saying that your first efforts, as they stand, didn't do a lot for me personally. But I'm sure you'll get better!

It's okay, other people don't like it either, and actually I'm not really into tuning cars that much, I like stock, so I can't stop wondering why I even started doing this. I'll just do a car once in a while for my personal entertainment and learning about photoshop. I already learned a few usefull new things.

I think I'll stick to making skin, I'm a little bit better at that (very little:tilt

My first and only Digimod so far:

Nice Quicksilver, very clean.

I also used to prat about with Photoshop when I discovered it. Here's one of my (believe it or not) better efforts, probably from earlyish 2003. Rubbish, they never really looked like cars once I'd finished, I always used to go too far aswell. Still, at least I put that grill on the A3 before Audi did

I'd love to know how to do this kind of stuff.. i use photoshop and illustrator for 'scratch' made logos and the kind.. but ive always wanted to do some photo editing as such..

any pointers? i know it's alot to ask as i know how complex things can be at times.. but im after anything to get my going

many thanks
