Custom Hearse Posted February 7, 2013 A few more... I'd like to see what this would look like with a 77/78 T/A front clip... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lunajammer Posted April 29, 2013 Okay, I'll bite. 69-Torino with Fairlane front end and 70-Mercury Marauder roof and rear. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazyjim Posted April 29, 2013 Yo Harry - can you put some words with your pics? I like the look of that red Camaro, but can't exactly figure out what you did to it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harry P. Posted April 29, 2013 Yo Harry - can you put some words with your pics? I like the look of that red Camaro, but can't exactly figure out what you did to it. I put a whole different front end on it. A lot more like the original (I love retro styling!). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harry P. Posted April 29, 2013 Okay, I'll bite. 69-Torino with Fairlane front end and 70-Mercury Marauder roof and rear. That looks like it could have been a real one! Nice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ace-Garageguy Posted April 30, 2013 here is my concept for what Ford might have made if they had made a beefy "big brother" to the 67 Mustang: a 67 Galaxy Sport Coupe Man, that is SWEET !! Take a car with basically nice lines, get rid of about 800 pounds of un-necessary fat, and produce something really beautiful. THAT's another one I'd like to see in 1:1.

Thank you for the "thumbs up", this is in my "future project list" if I can find a '67 Galaxy cheap enough, lately peeps seem to want a fortune for glue bombs and the price goes up from there if it's unbuilt.

blunc Posted April 30, 2013 Okay, I'll bite. 69-Torino with Fairlane front end and 70-Mercury Marauder roof and rear. this is nice, looks like something you'd have seen in Canada or Australia (except for it not being "right hand drive"). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blunc Posted April 30, 2013 I put a whole different front end on it. A lot more like the original (I love retro styling!). I like the retro front end better than how GM released their current style, Dodge really hit a home run when they produced the new retro Challenger, their Charger I'm not so fond of...

Lunajammer Posted May 1, 2013 this is nice, looks like something you'd have seen in Canada or Australia (except for it not being "right hand drive"). Yeah, that had crossed my mind too. I wondered if I should've just left the roof alone, I thought it started looking more like a conventional 69 Fairlane. Just one more because this is actually something I've been kicking around a while. 64 Riviera with a 66 roof. These exercises help visualize what the issues might be before I cut into plastic. I started my Cannonball car this way. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cobraman Posted May 1, 2013 A few more... Both the Camaro's look better than the real one. I don't care for the front on the real one at all. IMO Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob Hall Posted May 1, 2013 A what if I'd like to build in scale is to kitbash the roof of an AMT '65 Galaxie onto an AMT '65 Lincoln to make a phantom 2dr. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ace-Garageguy Posted May 1, 2013 A few more... Knockout drop-dead gorgeous. I'd stand in line at the Chevy dealer to get one of those. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Russell C Posted July 15, 2013 (edited) I have a particular weakness for mix 'n match illustrations à la Harry Pristovnik. It's the main reason why I switched from building only semi trucks to a bunch of mix 'n match cards like my http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/uploads/post-12144-0-10715600-1373870979.jpg and my Lambo 300, I wanted to see my ideas in 3D. Those of mine were done prior to my getting to computers and graphic arts. Now I can butcher cars in PhotoShop in moderately convincing manner (or lately in CorelDRAW since my newer computer can't handle my old PhotoShop 7 and I can't afford a CS3 upgrade). Such as the section I did to this unfortunate '59 Fury... Or transforming what I consider the 'worried look' of factory Jeep Libertys into something more retro... Can't wait 'til when I can get into the sort of virtual 3D drawing as seen in this 3D drawing blog. Edited July 15, 2013 by Russell C Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Austin T Posted July 16, 2013 Thinking about building this one in scale. It's a 1966 Karman Ghia with a 911 flatnose roof and a whale tale. Just a simple rendering I made in paint.net. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Modelbuilder Mark Posted July 19, 2013 these are hilarious. What programs are you guys using to smash up these pics? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blunc Posted July 21, 2013 these are hilarious. What programs are you guys using to smash up these pics? I use PaintShop Pro, currently have version4 but version-5 looks like it has some nifty new features. it's a bargain compared to Photoshop and it's good (and relatively easy to use) for non-professional users. I believe Harry uses a real professionals program, Photoshop. my hat's off to real photoshop users but usually it takes a real need (and usually a LOT of time) to learn how to use photoshop to it's fullest.

Thanks, I knew/understood that Photoshop could take a lot of time, but always interested in more simple and cheaper programs that will still allow some more simplified photo manipulations.

Watertown Posted August 3, 2013 A few more... Harry, from your Photoshop file to the Brass at GM's ear, having just purchased a 2013 Camaro, Your rendering showing the '69 beak and stripe graphic on the silver Camaro is the only thing in my mind that could have made this car better! Nicely done! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
