haha

[Cheeseburger]

nice try

[Civic Accord Honda]

ods car looks like a Zebra

[snoopyloopy]

the problem is that the cf skin (or w/e the hell it's called) that you're using is too big for the picture you're putting it on. you need to get a cf skin where it ends up looking real. or get a bigger picture.

[A18A]

my car looks like one of those whores with those fugly things that the put on there legs lol

[Civic Accord Honda]

my car looks like one of those whores with those fugly things that the put on there legs lol
haha do you think messy wheres thos

[A18A]

haha do you think messy wheres thos
:slap:

[A20A1]

I made my own CF, but I would rotate and then use perspective... not the other way around.

You need to just adjust the scale of the CF layer... it's too big.
Or your pattern could be off.

http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b351/Wendy_girl/cf_examples1.jpg

[MessyHonda]

haha do you think messy wheres thos

i think they are called pantyhoes or some shit like that...but nope i dont wear em....i try to keep my whoring indoors.

[mkymonkey]

yep...see what i would do...is if you have a 600x800 pic, make a new file at 1600x1200 and fill a new transparent layer with the cf skin. then just click and drag it to the other file with the car pic. the pic should be substantially bigger than the original car pic. you can resize it with the scale option and if you hold the ctrl button while holding the resize handels on the corners you can do it in perspective. then use the twirl option like it says in the tutorial i gave ya guys. easy.

[Civic Accord Honda]

oh so make a new file i was just makeing a new lay of the same size :slap: oh and messy thay are called fishnet stockings

[MessyHonda]

oh so make a new file i was just makeing a new lay of the same size :slap: oh and messy thay are called fishnet stockings

stockings....LOL.... i hella forgot...lol....i think thoes hoes from GTA"VC wear em

[mkymonkey]

yeah see if you make the cf in the same file at the size the tutorial tells you to it comes out like yours. its the same problem that geddy was having. just make a new file and once youre done close it and dont save it. unless you want to so you dont have to do it again lol

[Civic Accord Honda]

but how do you turn the new file in to a layer? is there another websight with a how to

[mkymonkey]

no dude....ok ill write it for ya hold on

[Civic Accord Honda]

:) 3gee ricehttp://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n111/civicaccordhonda/ricerice.jpg

[MessyHonda]

:rice:

[Civic Accord Honda]

yup

[MessyHonda]

i bet all you fuckers are going to hate me when i put on a kit...lol

[Pico]

:thumbup:

[thegreatdane]

what, so are you going to print the finished picture and then glue it on to your car, or whats the deal here lol

[Civic Accord Honda]

just make sure you put the kit on the Dx and put the Si badge and accord type-R badges on and some nos and toyo sticks and take the tire covers off and cut the springs and then it wil go 180mph

[Civic Accord Honda]

what, so are you going to print the finished picture and then glue it on to your car, or whats the deal here lol
YUp how did you know my plan :)

[mkymonkey]

ok here we go (FYI this is a continuation to the tutorial i posted on the other CF thread (http://www.digimods.co.uk/tutorials/carbonbonnet.htm), this is meant to help CAH it is not the full tutorial):
__________________________________________________ ____________________________

STEP 1
* make a new file

http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l10/mkymonkey/HowTo-CF/howto_CF_1.jpg

STEP 2
* set the dimmensions

http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l10/mkymonkey/HowTo-CF/howto_CF_2.jpg

STEP 3
* create a new layer by clicking the second from the right icon at the bottom of the layers pallette (it looks like a lil piece of paper)

http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l10/mkymonkey/HowTo-CF/howto_CF_4.jpg

STEP 4
* click Edit>Fill

http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l10/mkymonkey/HowTo-CF/howto_CF_3.jpg

STEP 5
* select the carbon fiber pattern from the turorial and click ok

http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l10/mkymonkey/HowTo-CF/howto_CF_5.jpg

STEP 6
* this is what it should look like now

http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l10/mkymonkey/HowTo-CF/howto_CF_6.jpg

STEP 7
* then open the pic (if you havent already) you want to add the CF to

http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l10/mkymonkey/HowTo-CF/howto_CF_7.jpg

STEP 8-A
* then just drag and drop the layer from the cf file on to the car pic file

http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l10/mkymonkey/HowTo-CF/howto_CF_8.jpg

STEP 8-B
* you can see how much bigger the cf layer is over the car pic...this is so we can scale it down to make it fit on the hood and look realistic

http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l10/mkymonkey/HowTo-CF/howto_CF_9.jpg

STEP 9
* now all you have to do is scale down the cf using the resize handles from clicking free transfrom from the EDIT menu.

http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l10/mkymonkey/HowTo-CF/howto_CF_10.jpg

STEP 10
scale it to perspective by holding CTRL key on your keyboard while resizing the CF layer. you will notice a difference in the effect. play around with it until you have something that will look realistic on top of the hood then continue on with the tutorial

AFTER YOU PLAY WITH IT YOU SHOULD HAVE SOMETHING LIKE THIS (http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l10/mkymonkey/HowTo-CF/howto_CF_final.jpg)

[Cheeseburger]

[Cheeseburger]

[Cheeseburger]

[MessyHonda]

i was saying it wouldnt be gay if u had money and louis vuiton

it would be a show car...we have daily drivers...i dont want to spend 12k on my interior..even if i had the money...i would get some high end racing seats...and no gay leppard skins on them.

[Cheeseburger]

well i was talking to him on AIM so im just going to paste what i told him on there

Hondaguy87 (3:08:26 PM): http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n111/civicaccordhonda/lowrider.jpg
mkymonkey89lxi (3:10:17 PM): the way you lowered the car looks funny...and i can tell you just lowered the whole pic
mkymonkey89lxi (3:10:24 PM): you would need a better pic to lower it
mkymonkey89lxi (3:10:32 PM): because this one has shadows and shade changes
mkymonkey89lxi (3:10:41 PM): so you would notice it with that way of lowering
mkymonkey89lxi (3:10:47 PM): and the cf still looks off
mkymonkey89lxi (3:11:00 PM): i say you would need to make a new layer of a copy of the hood
mkymonkey89lxi (3:11:06 PM): then make it grayscale
mkymonkey89lxi (3:11:08 PM): darken it
Hondaguy87 (3:11:11 PM): i suck
Hondaguy87 (3:11:13 PM): lol
mkymonkey89lxi (3:11:14 PM): use multiply on the blending modes
mkymonkey89lxi (3:11:19 PM): THEN put the cf on top
mkymonkey89lxi (3:11:26 PM): to make it look like cf
mkymonkey89lxi (3:11:33 PM): and the weave is a lil too big still
mkymonkey89lxi (3:11:38 PM): you dont suck...you just need practice
mkymonkey89lxi (3:12:04 PM): oh and the weave is also out of perspective. it should be getting smaller as it goes back into the hood
mkymonkey89lxi (3:12:07 PM): and bigger int he front
mkymonkey89lxi (3:12:14 PM): but still smaller to make it look real
mkymonkey89lxi (3:12:15 PM):
Hondaguy87 (3:12:19 PM): i needs lots of it but my computer likes to take a crap if i photoshop to long
mkymonkey89lxi (3:12:34 PM): oh
Hondaguy87 (3:12:55 PM): i needs lots of practice*
mkymonkey89lxi (3:13:04 PM): lol

mkymonkey89lxi (3:44:24 PM): but its a better try
mkymonkey89lxi (3:44:25 PM): :-D
mkymonkey89lxi (3:44:42 PM): im telling you that the pic is not a good one for lowering
mkymonkey89lxi (3:44:58 PM): and you should have use a pic like the one i posted of b16killa
Hondaguy87 (3:45:06 PM): ya but thats the best front pic i have
mkymonkey89lxi (3:45:06 PM): that is at a good angle for the cf hood

the CF doesnt follow the contour of the hood, switch the blending mode to overlay and adjust the opacity. you might have to darken the hood layer under it too. thats what i did on this 3000gt chop: (oh btw i dont mean to jack the thread, just a suggestion)
