Default Hi-Res Images of a S2/3 AU.

Hi, was wondering if someone would be able to help me out. I need some hi-res images of a white Fairmont (Futura and Forte are fine too, but prefer Fairmont) to do some photo shopping on for future paintwork designs.

If you have a hi-res camera and wouldn't mind taking photos of your white AU Front-on, Side-on, Rear end and on a few different angles, could you please take a few pictures for me and PM me with the links.

I would appreciate any help greatly.

Thanks.

Cheers Dezza for the images.

I didn't actually do too much with them, but I've roughly settled on choice of colour for my car when I eventually get around to the paint.


Dezza's AU Fairmont.


Fairmont in Red.


Fairmont in Tangerine(ish).


Fairmont in Pearlescent Orange.

The tangerine colour actually looks good

if you are gonna paint it bright colours, at least chuck the Fairmont skirt kit on it or something!!!


Also, in photoshop, just get a pic of your car, Image>Adjustments>Desaturate. Then Image>Adjustments>Colour Balance. Once you get some colour on it, if you arent happy with the colours you can get from that tool, use the Hue/Saturation tool in the Image>Adjustments menu as well.

I like how the first thing you did is make the grille black. Damn that white grille was bad!

They're very bright anyway!

Cheers for the tip; I prefer the way I've done it though as it gives just the car a different colour which is more realistic for me to view. I can't stand it when I see pictures that someone has simply pressed CTRL + U and "Colourised" everything.

I'm with you; I only needed it so I could get some fine details done, but as it turned out, I ended up going a different way altogether. Thanks for the tip again though.
