Lounge / What R U doing during these record gas prices?
How were you there in '73 when your profile says you were born April 22, 1990?!?!

I figured some people would say it was just gloom and doom.  But hey, people thought the Roman empire would last forever too.. ;)

Great renders man!

Here's one I did back in the day.


Not bad Baxo!  Looks like a model for a game... Did it ever go into a game mod?

Do you do any modeling anymore??

As for 87-88s, this last model took a lot out of me...I gotta take a break from modeling for at least a little while.. It's very time intensive.  But after than yeah maybe. ;)

Thanks Mayhem! 

Yeah, I think when I repaint my real life 'Bird, I'm gunna paint it silver with a matte black hood.  I am really enamored on how good T'Birds look in silver.

I'm gunna play around with some more custom scoop designs.  Regular 'ol scoops don't look all that great on T'bird/Cougars.  You really have to be careful as Birds already have such great lines, anything you add will most likely screw up the look.  On Mustangs for example usually look great with scoops, spoilers, wings and such...Tbirds/Cougars, not so much....

i liked the grey rims better and personally the lil duct thing in front of the rear tire is an eye sore. very nice job though.


Chuck W isn't going to like you then... :rollin:

Thanks guys for the comps... It really was a lot of work. About a month and a half using all my spare time.  The lack of real blueprints really made it tough.

Anyways I thought I should just repost the original stock body 'Bird I made since the mods are a matter of personal taste.

Here it is in wallpaper size:

The pics with the other wheels were quickly rendered just to show you the wing and ducts.  The chrome came out too 'chromy' ;)

Yeah, might have to tuck the lights in a bit more. Having no blueprints made getting everything perfect impossible.

Did one more render... I think it turned out much better:

Well it's my digital ride :D

I have pretty much finished my 3d project making the Thunderbird.  I thought I'd post it here since not too many people wander down to the Photochops section.

Here is my version of what a Jack Roush version of the Thunderbird would look like.  I tried to keep it simple and not go too wild with it.

After many, many hours of work here she is: (Now I just got to get Roush to build it!)

Lounge / i need router help
I would go to the Linksys website and download the latest version of firmware for the router. Had a similar problem with an old router of mine and that fixed it.

I am slowly but surely learning photoshop... here's my first *project*...
 
I don't really know how to get that Cdn flag to look as if its part of the licence plate.
 
Thoughts?


To do it right use the vanishing point tool in photoshop.  That will give your flag proper perspective on the license plate.

Engine Tech / Twin Turbo Engine Pictures
Can you give some details about your setup?  Brand of turbos, amount of boost, fuel system, cost, etc...

I'm really liking this and may go to a turbo setup in the future.
