...are you kidding... you added eyelids.... you define complexity

BloomerzUK · 07-17-2006, 03:12 AM

I seriously can see what you've done, except the eyelids.

MartinPliksh · 07-17-2006, 03:27 AM

and some of the bumpers gone, sure its in wip section, but, im not very intrested in something you have only just started

Cashman · 07-17-2006, 07:31 AM

Well, I think I've had enough of everybody's "oh so helpful" criticism here. I tried to not let all of the **** talking preteens on this site bother me, but if the **** like above is all that everyone has to say, then I think I'll just find somewhere else to hang out. To the one or 2 of you that actually made decent remarks, thank you.

.:ace:. · 07-17-2006, 07:41 AM

TechChild · 07-17-2006, 09:51 AM

Put your picture back up, like you said, don't let the **** talking preteeens bother you. If your happy with some of your progress then feel free to post it up, that's why this section is here.

As for all you telling the guy that he hasn't done much, take a harder look, when I caught a glimpse of it he had added the eyelids(which looked fine BTW) and he brushed out part of the front bumper(which looked more than fine, better than most people who try brushing to start out with IMO). You guys seriously need to start helping people out and giving better comments instead of just talking **** about every chop that isn't "up to your standards".....bannings will commence again if this doesn't stop.

And yea I'm serious, put the chop back up, it is a chop, it is a chop in progress, it belongs here.

Cashman · 07-17-2006, 02:32 PM

It's back up for you Joe..

Here's another pic as little farther along.. I've done the other fender as well, but I'm stuck on the grill.. any ideas/suggestions?

joemomma95 · 07-17-2006, 03:52 PM

good to see it back up....and the other fender is lookin nice too...maybe for the grill leave the bottom vet in there and make the top of it smoother, so it looks more oval shaped. And the grill itself, maybe make the bottom lip of it rounded off and paint in between the bottom vent and the grill with the body color, just like you have on the fenders....

Also, some things to think about possibly doing.....shave the foglights too, shave the antenna, roof racks, door handles...maybe lower the car some(not slammed but a little lower), or you could raise the fenders into the body(kind of complicated to understand what I mean, but I've done it on a few chops and it turns out different then just lowering, let me know if you want me to explain further)....you could make the mirrors body color,or just put new ones on(donored). You really don't have to do any of these, just suggestions to keep you going on the chop....don't want the forum monkeys to discourage you

Are you talking about channeling the body? That may be kinda sweet!

Yea basically, you select everything from the fenders down, copy and paste to a new layer then move that layer up...makes cars that have a high profile more streamlined...

Yep thats chanelling and now that I got to see the chop I was shocked

The chop looks magnficent and a thing abought the grill how abought shaving the chevy logo

Cashman · 07-18-2006, 10:01 AM

ok Here's my next "in progress" pic. new grill, sectioned the body and dropped it.. I'm still workin on some new mirrors and some other ideas.. I'm still not sure of the grill yet...

Here's the original just for comparison..

And here's the new progress pic.. I'm gonna shop the top as well to keep the lines a little more proportional..

Hmm the chop top make it look to small. I would do a really moderate one

Cashman · 07-18-2006, 11:38 AM

yeah I know.. I was gonna do more of a rake than a chop.. I added a little bit of rake to the body when I did it too..

TechChild · 07-18-2006, 12:18 PM

I like the extended grill for like paint make it flat black and add pinstriping or something

Carty · 07-18-2006, 12:57 PM

haha it looks like a pig to me for some reason, good work on the fender and front end, but I suggest making the rest of the body match how slim the lower part is
