[EvoTroy]

Yeah tis a bit blury...and its annoying me GRRR

what would ya recommend i do to decrease bluryness?

i wanted to just c and p from the front of the other 1...but it looks really strage.. the original looks like its already been badly changed... have a close look at the left hand side and see :S

Since you are a new guy I wanna give you some advice. USE YOUR SMUDGE TOOL SPARINGLY. Get good with a cloning tool and you could do some damage. Also, in my opinion you should try another type of widebody. Maybe add fender flares and door panels/vents. Please stay away from gay looking vents. I guess you could have a go with the vents tut.

First off, don't be afraid of the noob bashing...it only affects those who don't take advice or those who are here looking for trouble. If you don't fall into those catergories and use you head about posting then you'll have no problems...

The chop is good, I actually like the window tint, it's different..and sometimes different is good, as long as it's tastefully different. The streching of the car is ok, the front looks to smudged...I would sometimes agree that using the smudge tool is a bad thing, unless you know how to use it. If you were to try the same thing with the smudge tool at a bigger size brush you would've gotten better results....

Keep tryin and don't be scared by our 'harsh' members...

ok as with most noobs u used the smudge tool, u hardly ever have to use it, mainly for doin teh vents and stuff properly thats when u use it, if you want to lengthen it either make a selction of the bumper copy na dpaste and stretch it, thats prolly the eassiest way to do it for a noob, or use the clone stamp and do it that way, the side vetn is wrond but that okay for a first try try the tuts on digimods they'll help you a crap loda trust me and theres alot of them too so jsut keep practicing on them and soon you'll be ehaps better, and most important, take your time! kepp it up.
