Z Photoshops

So lately I've been working on my freelance site redesign and got to the point where I needed a good example of a project rendering in Photoshop. Believe it or not the worst part was trying to get the blue to look as though it wasnt 100% fake. I guess that's the tough part about working with dusk photography with good light. Anyone think there is a market for trying to sell this kind of work? I'm hoping so...

The car should look like pic #2 this spring, but pic #5 is still a while in the future. But here is the list:
General body and reflection clean up
Flat black powdercoated trim
Tinted windows
Tinted sidemarkers
Correct '80 fender vents
Lowering springs
GM dark indigo blue metallic paint
'80 Z28 stripe kit (with "Vortec" in the place of "Air Induction")
'80 Z28 grille emblem
18 & 20" TTIIs with matte gunmetal center

Original:

The current plan of action:

I like it

The website looks killer, I like the menu headings a lot

The photoshop doesn't look to bad either, I think you should have just gone with posting the largest verison you have though, shrinking it just makes it look worse..

Oh and question! Do you live in a state that doesn't require side mirrors?

I was looking for some bullet mirrors to chop on, but nothing would have worked so I had to freehand them. BTW, the wheel res sucks, but I have a buddy snapping some shots for me any day now.

That's excellent stuff man. I'm sure there's a market for those sorts of things.

I really like it better the way it is. I think you already have an awesome car.

This thing was fugly when I bought it.

It was originally brown, but there's no way in hell it will stay maroon forever either. haha I'll feel much better once all the chrome is gone too. I already finished up the engine, now it's time to get rid of it on the outside.

And what the outside used to look like...
