Just wanted to post up some progress pics. Kyle was an awesome client, took multiple high resolution pictures of his vehicle at various angles and even used various lenses to capture multiple aspects of the same shot. I couldn't ask for a better client!

Pics have been resized for forum viewing.

So far I have two hours into everything and many, MANY more to go!

looks good keep up the good work

Had to change the background to white since I was 'primering' it in gray and needed the contrast.

Going to bed for tonight, still have the lower grille surround and hood to finish:

your sig is creepy

I can garauntee people will pay for this from someone with Gary's skill level. (Not to mention his patience when doing this, this stuff's time consuming.)

Thanks, Pat. Hoping to drum up some interest and future clients with this particular rendering.

Slowly getting there:

Still have lots of highlights and more work on the metallic left but I wanted to be sure the client was happy with the color before moving on.

Love the color! I can't stop looking at that picture!!! :icon_goofygrin:

Kyle, please paint your truck this colour

when you're at that stage... :p

That's the plan! That is pretty much what the original color of the truck was and I want to get back to that color!
