original :

WIP:

I'v seen in alot of other posts people talkin about taking time and payin atection to the small details..thats what i'm tryin to do here.. and learn at the same time lol. the selections are a bit chopy in places and some blur but hopefully i'll be able to fix it befor i finnish, and i need to change the wheels

hows it lookin so far?

MartinPliksh · 07-08-2006, 02:44 AM

its looking good, you have done a good job so far, but with the lights you have doubled up at the front, the one on the far side doesnt match, it needs to be more like the one that was already there

UGCustom · 07-08-2006, 02:49 AM

i was wondering about that light..wasnt sure if the far side one would look right.. but i'll add it in on the next update and we'll findout lol

I've always hated "floating or pierced" foglights... it looks stupid but unfortunately two looks 2x worse. I'm not feeling that side scoop because it's too... straight. You did a good job of highlighting around the edges but it still looks fake for some reason. Other than that it's good.

UGCustom · 07-08-2006, 02:09 PM

not much done here yet lol.. fixed the fog's and changed the color. also made the grill look more visiable so the fogs arnt floating

lol donno how else to fix that part

it hasnt been lowered in this pic yet..i'm waiting till the rest is done befor i do that and change the wheels

any other ideas?? i like the clean look but it looks like its missing something

VipFREAK · 07-08-2006, 02:10 PM

Wheel change... ?

Get rid of the amber in the headlight... ?

UGCustom · 07-08-2006, 02:15 PM

for the wheels.. i'm waiting untill the rest is done, pluss i cant find a good set for this lol other than differant audi wheels nothing seems to look right

and the headlight.. for sure i'll do that, it'd make it look alot better

VIPEY · 07-08-2006, 02:23 PM

Well i think it would look a bit better if it would be lower a little (NOT TOO MUCH)

UGCustom · 07-09-2006, 12:19 PM

still think its missing something lol

VIPEY · 07-09-2006, 02:00 PM

Everything is perfect but wheels are FLAT !!!

UGCustom · 07-09-2006, 02:08 PM

i figured thry were kinda flat

i had to resize them to see what they looked like.. i'm trying to find a good really high res pic with those wheels i can use.. maybe they'll look better without makin them bigger

pschopper · 07-10-2006, 03:21 AM

why is there is a small patch that is darker than the paint around it near the front wheel arch?

Carty · 07-10-2006, 04:51 AM

car looks good, doesnt look right because your vents are sooo straight, Audi's arent really known for their straight lines. Overall nice chop tho

UGCustom · 07-10-2006, 11:51 AM

lol i donno whats up with that darker spot. i think its from when i was smoothing out the arch... the vents being to straight.. i know what you mean, i'm tryin to make them look better but i cant get the perspective right.. not sure what angle to put them on lol

UGCustom · 07-10-2006, 02:40 PM

i'm having a massive brain fart today lmao.. still cant find any good wheels for this thing..or think of a good look for the side vents

but i got board and made some funky lights in the front grill, but they dont look real lmao

a friend from work wanted me to put animated spinners on it and pulsing neons too lmfao what a freak

Dr. Dingaan · 07-10-2006, 02:58 PM

I like the chop! The lights don't look that fake! Did you put the layer(lights) behind the grill layer? Or just on top?
BTW how long does a person remain a noob?

Dr. Dingaan · 07-10-2006, 03:00 PM

Damn, having a 56k modem the lights flash darn slowly! How the heck did you do that?

UGCustom · 07-10-2006, 03:03 PM

the lights i actually layered them on top..( forgot to move them back behind the grill ) lol, but the transpareny kinda worked out.. looks like they are behind it a bit

i think the noob thing goes buy posts.. donno how many but i just realized i'm not a noob anymore lol think its like 50 posts to be a PSC memeber or something like that..

lmao.. the only way i see them flashing right is in photoshop or on here.. i open it in a photo viewer and my pc lags. i play it in PS or open the link here its fine

joemomma95 · 07-10-2006, 03:45 PM

All I have at work is paint so bear with me, I gave a sort of idea on the vents, how to make them smooth looking(kinda)....

Looking at it now, I kinda think the vent's would work better without the trim going down the middle....your call...

UGCustom · 07-11-2006, 02:06 AM

i was thinkin about that to..the trim looks..ok but not right lol.. ill work on it a bit and round out the vents.. also maybe try making the trim end just after the door line or take it right out.. what ever works better lol
