oh you want the vector cartoon done, that's a bit of work mate, takes a while, do you have photoshop? if so it's not hard, but time consuming

thats exactly what I want to do for my leon

 

[crezz]

hokay cokey, is it do'able at all?

 

[old 'uns]

yup, but like Suj says, time consuming & a strain on the old eyes

 

[old 'uns]

got this far...

 

[MarkWales]

jees you dont mess around old uns

 

[crezz]

thats cool as fook!

 

[old 'uns]

fini, i think?

[old 'uns]

[old 'uns]

realised it won't stand on 2 wheels

 

[crezz]

top work, im very impressed and gratefull

 

[MarkWales]

what did you use old uns?

 

[old 'uns]

sign making program, easier than PS pen.
only prob is lines need to be bolder, so PS with a tablet/pen by hand or print out, old school drawing over lines then re-scan.
or if i could get it to work, save as .plt & hopefully convert with thicker lines.
black pic is vector to cut as vinyl so is closed loops

 

[MarkWales]

hmm nice I was thinking of using Techsoft 2D Design which is a school based sign making program - think i will give it a go

WELL GAVE IT A GO

 

[crezz]

how come everyone can do things but i cant! lol

 

[MarkWales]

its not that bad - just very time consuming as in previous posts

mine is no where near right - YET

 

[Fl@pper]

how come everyone can do things but i cant! lol

you probably have better things to do

you can do similar in photshop, look up a cartooning tutorial, just wondering if the techsoft thing is a little faster and less fiddly

 

[crezz]

ah il leave the computer stuff to the wizz kids

today is exhaust fab day! yeah baby.. my custom exhaust! pics to come tonight hopefully!

 

[crezz]

well you cant beat home brew jobs that cost you nothing but time

didnt get many pics as im a loser but hey,

started off cutting out back box, was "blowing so hey ho"... fitted in a straigt pipe and welded up one end, clamped the other to centre obvoiusly. then went about making my bracket to hold the new exhaust sorted that with a quick fab up of a bracket and mountred up nicely...

next was to somehow connect a unusual and irregular choice exhaust to standard pipe work

alot of cutting and swearing and a quick blob of mig, i ended up with two 90' bends and a straight bit and fitted up nicely.. screw the typing...pics

anybody gues what the pipe is off ? ? ? il give ya a whooping gert big thumbs up if you do!

sounds raspy! lol
