Give me the pic of the hot bimbo, and it can be arranged

I dunno, though. Most bimbos have had too many enlargements, and therefore, their knockers would not FIT in your vent

Had me a go at drawing on photoshop. Not that pleased, but OK for 10 minutes work!

Mortenf, is that a drawn by hand, or contour tracing? If it's a drawn by hand, that's pretty good! Better than I can do
Now make a cool hoodscoop for it

Its made in photoshop, with a technique called cartooning. Its the same pic as in my avatar. Took me about ten minutes, but as you see i had troubles around the wheels. Partly because my car is black, and its hard to distinguishe the lines of the wheels inside the wells.

Here is a link to a cartooning tutorial if somebodys interested, it pretty easy to do, and if you spend some time on it, and have a good photo to start with, the results can be amazing!

On my slow internet connection, I'd rather avoid any links right now (90 Mb download going, seems to drop its speed in half when I open a new page!)

I'm almost sure it's what I called Contour Tracing. You reduce the colors by posterization, and then you trace the contours of the image, using a new layer (car, face, cat with sniper rifle, whatever)

Afterward, you delete or hide the layer you traced off of, leaving only the traced/contoured lines.

Am I right?

What you basically do is:

1.Set the picture as a background layer
2.Create a new layer on top of that, fill this with white and lower the opacity so that you can se the car again
3. Use the line tool to trace out the car (only the lines you want, great for removing dents and dings!)
4.Hey presto, you have "drawn" your car. Now mod that sucker out!

You guys should have made him give you $200 before doing his car, apparently that's the going rate.

Eh, it's easy. Most of the stuff we did is just a one click thing.

$200? I would feel morally wrong for charging anyone $200 for something like that.

$199.99 MAYBE, but not $200
