Anyone here good at photoshop? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

mr48chev · 03-25-2017, 01:17 PM

I did a print out some saved off the net cut the photos in two or four and put back together and see what they look like concept photos for my truck a while back but I'd like to see what they would look like if someone with a bit of skill did them up right and cleaned them up a bit.

This started out as the photo of a truck out of Rock Island Wa that has the same slant chop as my truck.

Along with cleaning up the photo I'd like to see it with white walls and not have the exhaust dump in the fender.

This started out with a photo of Cole Fosters Salinas Boys truck that he drove for years on end and sold to Jesse James who threw it on Ebay

Some know the plan but it is a 3 to 4 inch chop leaning towards 3 this time, 3 inch or so section, stretch 9-1/4 though the doors and set it with a stock length short box on a long wheel base GMC 1/2 ton frame. Truck will be low, no bags and run wide whites and hubcaps.

Paint will be a deep maroon without much if any metallic. The hunt is still on for that color and it may take carrying a bottle of wine that has the just right color to the paint store to match it.

Who needs photo shop! You did it right there, I did the same thing with mine, those photos are up on a bulletin board in the garage.

I have this image in my head for my truck that can't be photo shopped (reasonably) so I have thought about having someone draw it for me. I know of one guy whom I can really trust with this. He is a guy I have seen for years at the local shows doing t shirt painting. He has a lot of pencil drawings on display that are really awesome. I don't know what it will cost but I am thinking this is the guy who can draw my Motorama truck I have in my head.

mr48cehv, you did a great job for sure!

If you'd like it taken to the next step, maybe ask admin to move this thread to the "Photoshop" section found further down list of threads near the bottom.

I just went out and took this photo of mine in the garage. Honestly Mr48, it's kinda creeping me out how similar we are! We have came across a number of different random things were we are similar, and it's getting nutty!

These cut up photos printed out in a black and white printer are up on the wall in my shop.

Look at the photo of my truck next to yours.

Both are trucks have been torn apart for 20+ years too right?

Creepy!

LOL Both trucks were red at one time too.

MARTINSR · 03-25-2017, 09:17 PM

OMG our wives (well mine is an ex) look alike! Me and her with my 71 Riv around 1979.

keep digging you guys! there's more to this story!!

mr48chev · 03-25-2017, 11:37 PM

Well my wife is still cute, at least every time we go to a rod trot the old farts all seem to want to talk to her. My daughter is 35 years older and my son in the blue shirt hadn't been born when the photo with the truck was taken. His gf beside him and her daughter and son in law on the other side and that dude in the white shirt is a dang good wrench handler.

MARTINSR · 03-25-2017, 11:56 PM

Good stuff, beautiful family!

We have one difference so far, you are still with that lady! But my "forever wife" (I never caller her my second wife because would mean there's going to be a third!) is my angel and will be for life.
We have two and I have two from my ex wife they are 35 and 33 and then 19 and 15.
