***GASP!!*** you don't know what car I'm basing this off of??? BOOOOO


hehe I'm only joking Here are some piccys for ya. Couple of the Xmod and one of the real thing.









I won't be doing the decal for awhile but I sure would like some info on how people do them. I know it'll be tough but if I can find out the process people go through then I can start practicing now.

[speed3326]

dude i can help u on that

[mini-z drift]

can you get pics of your subbie like a pixel car format
fv,sv,rv?

EDIT:
Progress-

What do you think?

[civic_guy]

Daaang! How'd you do that?! You don't have to do it for me...I just wanted to know how you went about doing it. That looks awesome....so how'd you do that... did you free hand it? or is there and easier way?

[mustanglover]

Here is mines civic_guy.

[civic_guy]

Thanks guys....but this is really something I'd like to do myself. If you guys could tell me how you went about doing the decals that'd be greatly appreciated.

It doesn't take away from the fact that your attempts are absolutely awesome so.... does someone mind sharing how they go about doing the decals? Do you just free hand them by trial and error or do you copy the decal and shrink it, then place it? I'm using photoshop if that helps.

Thanks for all the help guys...btw here's another update!

[coolcar24th]

Yeh I free hand mines. I use MS paint, because thats all I got. Anyhow it just takes quite a bit of trial and error.

EDIT: Im gonna attempt to make the fujitsubo subaru.

[civic_guy]

You should....I was actually doing that one as well....but was gonna wait untill I got the whole decal thing down.


EDIT: Here's what I had so far for the Fujitsubo

[mini-z drift]

I use Ms paint
