nope, belive it or not i cut them.

DennyW, here is a "blank" for Model A roadsters, maybe you could try a metallic maroon? On the other hand this "cream" sort of grows on me so if your don't do it I'll just look at Carnut some more.

DennyW, Wow I got my head moved! Well that covers the "primer" look. So many colors, so little time!

hwy Denny could you put me some silver metalic flames on this? need some ideas i'm not in a big hurry or nothin.


Thank's

DennyW, Just to thank you for the "Maroon Model-A Roadster". That gives me a pretty good idea of what a darker color would look like and indicates a need for a little chrome here and there like door handles and maybe those little handrails the top is supposed to rest on. You are really good with computer graphics as well as mechanical advice, thanks again. I note that the "grey primer" version of the roadster shows reflections in the door that were not visible in the "cream" version, but I don't know what color you were trying for. Anyway, mission accomplished as far as what maroon would look like, Thanks.

DennyW is right, starting with a white car is tricky. It can be done, but it is hard to make the paint look shiny. Here is a quicky to give you an idea.

I tried to post this picture but it won't let me. Even after I changed the settings in my user CP.

this is what i think HRA would look good in.

Newbie here, was wondering what program you guys are using besides photo shop to do your paint work. I have a 70 f100 pro streeted that i am going nuts trying to pick the right paint scheme. I have been drawing colored pictures with not much luck.

just found this sight, and love it.

thanks for any help,
Dave
Will be going posting about self later today.
(boring to say the least)

Sadly, I like the flat black roadster...I'm I strange???

This is an old thread but I missed DennyW's last maroon rendering. It's great! Now I am sold on metallic maroon for sure, thanks DennyW!

DaveMax, we use Photoshop mostly. If I knew how to use it real well then I have some sweet idea's for a 60's-70's F100's. I have a 66 that I plan to pro street... Can you send me some pics of yours? What do you run in it, etc?

Posted some pics in the in progress and members galleries.

Engine in it now is a 351 windsor with ported heads, comp 280 magnum cam. performer intake. nothing major just a fun cruiser. When i took it apart, it had this same engine with a three speed. 3;1 gears. When done it will have a c4 behind it with 486 gears.
Feel free to email me anytime.
