Mk2 Golf, eurostyle

[spacket]

This is my first chop, so go easy:D its got a few bits of neatening up to do, and some other bits of smoothing.

Other than that, not bad for a first attempt?

heres the original

i need to work on the widened arches a bit more, theres a few mistakes i made there.

its looks good , not over the top , but kinda hard to see details because the pic is so small , got a bigger size? if not i suggest you use larger images to start with on your next chop

Yeah spacket, BB is correct and we also need to see what you started with to tell what you've actually done, so try to provide the originals too on chops.
I would guess here you've probably lowered it, swapped rims, debadged and shaved the door handles and maybe tweeked the color a bit.
From a distance it looks like good execution, although the rims are a bit bright and the glare doesnt match up to the light source, which instead of being in front of the car is above and behind it. I like the colors though, the gold against the purple looks nice.
Lets see some more bro.

cheers for the input guys, really appreciated :)

Ill put a larger picture up now, and the original.

not bad for a first chop , but make sure you crop the image after you lower your car ( I can still see dark lines of concrete on both sides ), and try to put some shades on your rims ( the top part). I know shades is a small thing and may seem like its not important, but believe me, it makes a lot of difference. )) Keep it up mate.

Very euroish. Not a fan of the purple and gold but thats more of a preference. Good work so far.

Cheers guys, thanks for the pointers,

got a spare moment at work, so thought id start some shading:

Then, in photoshop i went image> adjustments> replace colour to try and create a two tone colour for the paintwork, aslo did the same thing to the wheels.
I love euro VW's. i've got a mk1 caddy myself, and just love the simple, subtle changes, also im big into brown and cream.

I agree )) and try to do something else to it ( the front of it), maybe put a mesh grill, make " Angel Eye" headlights ........ let your imagination do its thing, lol

I like the grill how it is, and i may tint the headlights, im going for the real 'UK' VW show-winner look, thats how we like them here :D

but i think i'll do something with the bumper, probably smooth it and make it the same colour as the car
