Lol. I have one of those lists aswell. Quite long.

Not bad....You might want to work on getting your black parts to retain some reflections to stop them looking so matt, but keep at it!

Yeah im struggling with that bit but unfortunatley do not have photoshop. I have been using Paint.Net to do them which is good but doesnt have all the features.

How would you go about doing this?

I had a quick go....And I mean quick!

Basically to keep the reflections, you I duplicated the roof panel into a new layer, desaturated it, and then adjusted the levels to make it sit right with the other cars in the pic....This way you keep the reflections. The trouble is, black is very hard to get 'just right'.... :bang:

Now that looks AWSOME

Would you do just a one of for me

Depends what you want doing and how long you wanna wait....

I have to agree you can't really call it photoshopping if you don't have photoshop!

There are plenty of other program's you can use to get similar results, without everything having a matt finish. I think one called 'Gimp' is a free to download open source alternative.

Also, just to add (and hopefully you already know of this website) ...

Some of those are ok, but there are better ways of doing some of them....

That modified 500 is awesome fair play. :worship:
