Need photo shop, Daytona two tone

[dads_69]

Need a photo shop of a '69 Daytona. Top half black, and from hardline where top of fenders meet the side red lower half w/a white tail stripe. Magnum rims also if possible. Now don't go a hatin' me for what I'm asking here. I'm not trying to be like Chip Foose, just comparing paint jobs right now for my clone.
Thanks Mark

Plumb is The MAN!

Plumb is The MAN!

 

What the hell does that mean Dave? hahaha......Wife just said we have photo shop set up, now I'm trying to figure out how to use it.
Thanks Dave for the comment anyways.......
Mark

[moparguy01]

I'd help you, but you could probably find any 1 year old and give them a picture of a daytona and 2 color crayons and have it turn out better than mine. 


and dont ask what Dave what he means. He's from commiefornia. they never make sense. haha

[Johnny SixPack]

I think Strato is talking about Plum500.

He's done many high quality mock-ups.

I'd try it, but my PS skills are kinda BS.

[ds440]

Here ya go.   

I...don't really know how I feel about it.  My recommendation is that if you are looking for a "custom" look with the red/black, then lose the tail stripe or ghost it somehow.  Too many colors competing can be a bad thing.  You'll notice that's why Foose always has a third "detail" color. (i.e. grey top, orange bottom, with like a blue pinstripe).  The third color compliments and finishes, but never competes with the two dominant colors.  He ALWAYS does that...   Two tone, third color detail....

Hope this helps you visualize better.  Good luck.

[ds440]

...and here's your "Foosed" version.

Complete with shaved door handles, turn signals, etc...

Personally - not my thing.  But if you were wondering what it would look like - this is my best guess.

[dads_69]

ds440. Thanks for the photo shop. I like the second photo best. True, the first three color version is to much. I am still working on our set up photo shop also, just installed it last night and played around with photos, kept getting these weird lines moving around is all.
Mark

[41husk]

I like the second as well but a bright white horizontal stripe seperating the red and black might work as well.

[ds440]

No problem.  It only takes a few minutes to "Foose" a car....in photoshop anyway.   BTW that'll be $100,000 "design time."

All you have to do is follow the formula ({2xcolor + 1xthird color} minus sidelights minus door handles / pi = Foose.  Oh, and then throw in a new crate hemi.

[daytonalo]

dS 440 , is there any way you could use the photo shop for me . I am going to my  paint my daytona  HOUSE OF COLORS SUNSET ORANGE PEARL, with a white wing . It would be greatly appreciated if you could do this for me .
                                                                                                                Larry

[dads_69]

Larry, that would/will look sweet. I'd like to see a photo shop of it as well here. I'm still working with my set up here. Wife told me have at the computer and see what I come up with, she said screw it and gave up, ha ha. I did make a Petty blue Daytona, but now I can't seam to transfer the photo to the web site here. Looks awesome. I emailed OverHaulin' today per Chip Foose. Asking him to make a drawing of my clone like so in photo w/no wing color. We'll see if he responds to my request. Thanks again ds440!
Mark

[Mean 318]

I am impressed!

[dads_69]

Larry, I did an orange HOK w/a white tail and black. But now I can't deliver them on line here. I have to wait till wife gets home to do so. Otherwise, I may lose what I made for you.
Mark

[daytonalo]

can you tell me in laymens terms on how that is done

[dads_69]

Man I wish I could. What a pain, having installed the photo shop just last night was the easy part, trying to figure it out is the hard part. making a car or whatever change colors and making it stick is a pain. I've read the book twice, and still, its a brain killer for a non computer high tech guy like myself. Hopefully when the wife gets home from work tonight, she'll help me out in transferring the photo in here. I just pissed off my buddy *rare69* when I told him I want to two tone my clone, haha.....
Mark

[ds440]

Here ya go, daytonalo.

This is the best that I could do.  I'm not 100% sure what the HOK Orange Pearl looks like and I could only find one reference online.  So I used that one image as the basis for the color.  Hopefully this is close. 

[ds440]

I got a request for a Foosed '74 black on black.  I'm not an expert on 3rd gens, so I'm not 100% sure if this is a 73 or 74 (I don't know the difference ).

Anyway, here's my guess at what our ol' buddy Chip might try.  Shockingly, no two tone.  But black on black was the request...so there you go.  I blacked out the grill, made them hideaways, shaved door handles, sidemarkers, etc...

Foose's Challenger rims...

[ramit]

Are you sure your last name isn't foose?  I think the only thing you missed was to suck in the bumpers closer to the body.

[451-74Charger]

Man that is perfect.
Now I just have to make sure I DONT do that to mine..lol

[Blown70]

OK, FINE I like IT!!!!!!  But hey just my opinion right.

[Brock Samson]

love these chops!!!
looks cool, what if ya blacked out and tucked in the bumpers?...

  Daytonalo,.. what if you went with a pearl/candy tangerine?...
  just askin..  i concidered it for the Runner..

[dads_69]

ds440. I've been trying to photo shop still that same care red/black with 5 spoke rims. No luck yet. Is it possible you can scan it again for me with magnum 500 rims on it. I'm putting 15 x 10 rear and 15 x 8 front on mine. Thanks again for your photos.
Mark

[ds440]

I think this is what you are looking for, dads_69.  I really can't photoshop in accurately sized wheels.  Photoshop doesn't really work that way.  So I guessed what I thought 15x10's and 15x8's would look like.

[ds440]

I got another request.  This time for a 1st gen.

Per the request-
-black/silver/red
-hood scoop
-hemi callout
-no emblems
-red brake calipers

Let me know if I left anything out.

[Charger_Fan]

That one (ok, all of them ) looks pretty cool!

[bee_fishy_6869]

Hey DS440. Nice Images. I'm about an intermediate photoshoper . Do you have any quick tips on how to fill a car with a realistic color? Are you using certain blend options? I'd like to mess around with a few color schemes. Obviously my results wouldn't be as good as yours, but I'm sick of filling in with solid colors that just look like primer. Any suggestions? Thanks!

[BigBlockSam]

wow, thats cool.

[viper r/t]

Whoa ds440 those are great, no way ya could do a '68 that's viper blue with close to 18' cragars in the back and 17's in the front, with a silver r/t stripe, and without a vinyl top is there , that first gen rocks.

Hey Bee, I replied to your PM yesterday morning, did you get it?
If not let me know and I'll post it here.  I'm not ignoring you I promise!    I think that there are few other people who have the same questions.

Viper R/T, yeah I can work on that, but I won't be able to get to it until Monday or Tuesday if that's alright?   I'm currently working on another second gen (G-Force Cuda style), but I'm having problems finding the right image.  But if you just are looking for a few simple color changes and rims, that shouldn't be a problem....I just have a busy weekend ahead...

Sure that's fine, just whenever you can get around to it.

[ds440]

Here you go, Viper.

Let me know if I forgot anything...

[ds440]

Another second gen...

Carbon fiber stripe/hood blackouts.  Ghosted V21 engine callouts.  I wanted to put in a white interior, but I couldn't find an image from that angle with an interior.

[CFMopar]

 How bout a 71 r/t with Black on black with chrome trim,shaved door handles but not the side markers.

Also hood wise. The aar cuda scoop/hood  with 17's on the front and rear something simple and basic wheel wise 

Whenever u got the chance after everyone elses hehe

[viper r/t]

Hey thanks alot man, that's great. I love those wheels on that orange one.

[dads_69]

Awesome photo shops ds440. I will have my p/s posted tonight. I emailed Foose designs about some drawings also. I hope to hear back soon info. I requested. Stock chargers are cool, but since my charger isn't org. this is why I'm modifying mine.
Mark

[69charger2002]

dude that is AWESOME> you are very talented
trav

[ds440]

One mean-looking black 71 R/T.  You can't go wrong with a black Charger.

For the wheels, I really couldn't find anything that I liked so I went with black steelies....simple and mean.

[Charger_Fan]

Wow, a '71 with an AAR hood! Friggin' COOL!!!

[CFMopar]

Dude thats so hot! I took my vinaly roof off mine but I'm sure It will be just as hot without the vinal. I'm definetly doing that with mine. I wanted to but wasnt sure how that would look. But Now i know So sweet! Take it down before someone coppies it!

[ds440]

Thanks for the comments guys.  I wasn't sure how the black '71 was going to turn out.  But when I got the proportions right on the AAR hood, I knew it was going to be pretty mean.  I made the scoop the same size as a bulge hood would be.  That way, it didn't look so out of place - it looked like it belonged.



472 R/T SE:  I PM'd you.  Hopefully you got it.


Any other requests?  Get 'em in - slow day at work today.....shhhhhhhh

[Brock Samson]

Good stuff!

I have a request for a altered wheel base 2nd gen ('69) with an FX style treatment... GMC Blower, Cute, wheelie bars Race Master slicks and little tires in front... tilt front clip too... with a rake down in front..
i souind Like PUNK-MATT...
& since I'm dreaming.. perhaps a two inch chop top with the Daytona treatment?...   Ink Blue Pls... 

[ds440]

Brock, I think you may have stumped me. 

I was just about to give up, when I found a picture of a ProStreet/ProMod '69.  That's the best that I could do.  I really can't "add" something to an image, UNLESS I have an image of the addition (from the same angle).  And I couldn't find an image of an altered wheelbase car.

So to make it up to you, I did two.  One Daytona and one R/T (complete with deleted stripe;D) .  I tried to match the color of your car, but in some pictures it looks blue, and in others it looks almost purple...so I went somewhere in between...

Let me know if I left anything out.  Thanks.

[Brock Samson]

     

  Great! Thanks...

[ds440]

Per another request.   

-Flat black Daytona
-SE, Hemi badges
-delete stripe
-tunnel ram
-side pipes
-slot mags

Let me know if I missed anything.
[Edit: added the R/T badge]
[Edit#2: fixed the R/T badge, and added 70 pinstripe]

[Brock Samson]

this is good  thanks so much! 

[THE CHARGER PUNK]

SWEET DUDE, thnx for that daytona i requested -MATT

[ds440]

Not a problem, PUNK.

I got your messages and if you can find an image of the velocity stacks/carb scoop you want, post it and I'll make the corrections.  I can't find a good image of what you were describing.

Thanks.

[hookem78613]

DS440,  How did you learn how to do that!  Wow...I am really impressed.  Would you do a Cuda?  My Charger is already finished and I picked up this as my next project.

Bronze, I already did a CARS version of that car in the Photoshop Thread (page 7).  As for "what I can come with"...well I can do anything.  But I'd really prefer to spend my time working on images that help people make decisions on their projects.  So if you are undecided on something, then I'll give it a shot, but if you want me to just "play around"...sorry, too busy.

great to be a kid eh?.. all that time to waste..

[dads_69]

Holy crap, talk about dragin' an oldie out. I sold my car over a year ago, rear window was done, quarters welded, trunk floor thats it. No other daytona pieces. $4600.00 for everything, including the 426 stuff, only missing new 426 block, everything else was there.
I got the bug for an A-body again, chargers piss me off anyways...
