Default Small Sig Change Please

This goes towards Xeno since he such a great job with my sig.

I really like the sig you made me but I was wondering if you could make one small change. Could you give my car that artistic look that your car has? I think that it would make my car blend in much better with the Grateful Dead art.

Thanks alot in advance,

Brian

Is there any way you can make it more defined? When I compare the image of my car to yours, it seems like yours is more detailed. Is there any way to make mine look like yours?

Thanks again for working with me Xeno, I'm a pain in the ***.

i can try something, but it may not get much better. usually, the way it eventually turns out is determined on the lighting/position of the original picture; but i can try a thing or two to smooth out the lines a little. i think i just got lucky with the way mine turned out

if it still looks weird after i update it, post up the original picture again (if you still have it) and i'll try doing the same thing with it; sometimes a larger pic will give better results

Thanks for trying again, I guess it's still a bit off. Could you please try it with this image?




Also, is there any way you could put a pattern in the background of the entire image, kind of like you did on your sig? Something that flows with the rest of the sig?

Again, thank you so much for working with me Xeno.

Brian

i think the full picture turned out better. the first sig is the old style with the updated car and in the second i added a psychedelic style background

83GTRagtop, the best way to capture pictures of your car is to take it on a cloudy day or at sunrise or sunset. When you take pictures in the middle of the day, the sun washes out the true colors as well as much needed highlights.
Try taking some more at different angles.......just a suggestion.

BTW, my sister had an '84 black on black Ragtop.

Ya I'm aware. I have tons of photo's of my car on cloudy days, I just happen to like this photo, although I know it's a bit washed out. I have alot at different angles too.







Here are some shade photo's.
