Jaymz Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Hello all, Since I'm photoshop and related programs retarded.. I though I would ask your assistance. I'm looking to do a pretty wild paint job this summer on the SS. ( maybe basic ? not sure ) I saw a photoshop picture on here about 6 months ago that was black on the bottom.. had some crazy silver graphics then red on top. Looked awesome, however I can no longer locate this picture. can someone throw up some designs ? I would really appreciate it. I have a red 03 SS black Rims.. I'm sure you guys can find tons of pictures of a Red ss to use.. not sure of the angle you want. I'm looking to use the stock red on top to save a little on costs ( plus door jams etc ) I'm thinking of using black/white/silver/gray.. along those lines. Hack away at it guys, can't wait to see what you come up with ! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zanis520 Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 im a huge fan of red, but if ur doing a two tone for some reason ive always been in love with orange. i really like when people do black on top orange on bottom, or orange on top white on bottom, i think both of those combos look AWESOME. Just remember though, any good respectable painter will tell you, that the general rule of thumb with 2 tone is the darker color usually goes on top, its more appealing to the eyes. so if you are infact gonna keep red on top, traditionally speaking you're gonna want something lighter ie white, silver, yellow, etc. or vice versa if you want red on the bottom. heres some pics i have of some cool two tones, hopefully they can help u out.

Thanks for the help No problem! I figured thats exactly what you were talking about and knew where to look to get it as I remember the post to. Ha, good luck; I was thinking two tone for the truck to, but who knows. I was thinking the basis of Pearl white on the bottom (caddy color) and leaving the top victory red. Something like that.

mcmahan Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 i was thinking of a burnt orange on top of silver birch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaymz Posted March 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 Thanks for all the pics leftcoast ! I really do like the "copper head orange" color too.. With some silver I think that would look awesome. also considering like a metallic-laser blue/silver/white Only thing is if I stray away from red.. I'm going to have to remove all the skirting, remove the box.. doors.. hood.. glass.. etc etc.. Be a huge project, but I'm sure it will be worth it in the end. Really wish I knew how to use photo shop lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
