Some extreme lines you got going on there.

Dude thats awesome Just one thing missing IMO is a spoiler but this is the first time ive seen brushing so dont know whether its possible or not. Is there any tutorials on brushing cause i'd love to try it out

Dj Twinkles · 03-02-2009, 05:52 AM

thanx and yeah ima add the spoiler and Ima try too brush it too... most chops posted here are brushed but im still a noob... there are tutorials of brushing but I dont find them too useful cause I dont understand them totally... but heres the famous Martin Pliksh brushing tut http://www.carchops.com/tutorials/re...brushingv2.jpg ... but basically you just need a good eye for detail , common sense of how lighting falls on an object and patience... the first time wont be the best.. pratice makes perfect

Uh Ohh!
Well he could be using it as a reference piece to learn from...

Hmm, as a general rule of thumb we dont condone chopping someone elses chop.
However in DJ's defense it appears he is doing the brushwork and as Patel points out, for the most part using this chop as a guide. I find nothing wrong with that, its actually a good way to learn. I have even supported this practice and suggested many noobs do it to develop and strengthen their skills. All artists will eventually see something done and get inspired to try their hand at reproducing it in some form or fashion. The real issue up for debate here is the fact he definitely has shagged a few items directly (headlamps, intercooler, rims etc.) and basically pasted them. Again I think everyone cuts and pastes items on chops, in this case its more frowned upon since said items are not actually a picture and rather brushed or created items by the original artist. This you really shouldnt do OR, if and when you do, you make a point to reveal it in your initial post. ALWAYS give credit where credit is due and you wont end up embarrased when your buds rat you out !!

oopsie... lol... I like totally forgot to say that its not my design... and this is purely for brushing practice thats why I posted in wip so that you guys can comment on my progress cause im fairly noob... as for the rims Im gonna change them.. I just use them so I can get the tyres right so Ima change the rims and Im not ganna use the headlights .. sorry so the inconvience guys ... kinda did this cause my designing skills aint that good I can draw cars on paper but doing it on the pc aint that easy

PSDavinci · 03-04-2009, 09:03 AM

Like I said, its good practice and you've actually done pretty good bro.
Keep going on it.
