Hi,

I think you're design is really cool. I especially like the smooth transition between a sketch on the left and the photo-like quality on the right. I'm interested to know how you did the shine on the bumper.

Great Job!

I sketched it out by hand then scanned it in and cleaned it up in Painter 9, then rendered in Photoshop. I guess the best way to try to get a shine is using the brush with the dodge setting on.

nice work. love the sketchy style

Thanks for the comments!

Hey, first off great job on on the renderings. I have been trying to learn painter here for a little while, yet can't find a good brush workflow. I am thinking about just falling back onto what I already know: photoshop. These sketches have the look I am going for my quicker ideation sketches yet still smooth where they need to be, and then your futuristic car you painted is in the general direction I would like to go for my renderings. Would you mind just giving me some hints on where to start? Not so much perspective tips or such, but ideas on brush workflow. My guess would be that these are soft vine charcoal with some kind of blender? The futuristic racer, i have no idea. Thanks, and great job again, i'm sure the customer was quite happy! Only constructive crit would be that #8 looks a little elongated from the greenhouse to the front bumper.

hey man.. veryy coool
fav!

To be honest with you I am still not that fluent with painter myself. I love to sektch in painter but I still go back to photoshop myself to render. I drew these sketches in my sketchbook in a really rough format, then i cleaned up the line drawing in painter. Then I made a rough marker background on paper and scanned that in. I would mess with the marker and adjust it and skew it then I adjusted the brightness and contrast then I compiled it all in Photoshop and just used black and white to render only the front corner of the car. It turned out to be a fairly fast process. If I have some time I will try to throw something together to show how I did it. I hope this helps you out a little.

Great!
