Heres a quick one I just did cuz I'm bored. Took 10 minutes.

You should erase/white-out the gray wheel flares that no longer match the new wheel openings. Looks great, though.

^ You should have tried to keep the background the same, then it would look so much more real

I didn't even notice that. I was focusing on lining up the bricks and forgot about the windows. I'd go back and fix it, but I didn't save it as a PSD, and I'm too tired to cut up the JPG right now. Maybe later.

With rising fuel prices I decided to downsize my transportation:

My first try at anything like this and I'm glad with how it turned out. The front bumper is screwed up and I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to make it look good. The back could use some work but I got tired of trying to fix the front.

Ramseus · May 25th, 2008, 07:15 AM

protip: don't just squish the entire image, squish the middle part of the image so the ends of the vehicle don't get screwed.

Look! Porsche finally made a new coupe! ...not really!

edit: lol laziness, those are terrible tbh

Hi

I'm new here and love these squashed cars!

Can someone please squash my mate's sidecar for me? Don't squash the riders though!

Thanks

Speedtouch · May 27th, 2008, 10:38 AM

I thought that was going to be really hard, but it wasn't!

Although I think the driver looks a little weird.

RaceFan7 · May 28th, 2008, 01:36 AM

Haha that's cool!!!!!! Thanks!

Very clever!

How do you do it please? I have Photoshop CS2 but rarely use it can I do it with it?

Thanks

Speedtouch · May 28th, 2008, 09:36 AM

Right, for simple side on photos, you have to select the wheels (and wheelarches) and copy them (to different layers) - for yours I selected the people as well - its anything you don't want squashed. Then just squash the car using free transform. Show the wheel layers and line them up, resize them, and basically spend some time merging them into looking normal.

When you have more frontal/side shots (like yours) it gets a bit harder because you don't just stretch it sideways, but you have to work it out so that it looks OK. And realigning the wheels takes more time. But it gives a better effect.
