how do you make the paintjob look realistic?

Dont touch the brightness when you FIRST add color is the key, and use A very high opacity

in gimp, how do you lower the car? ive been sitting here for about 45 mins and cant figure it out lol, but i found out how to put different rims

i was just making a new layer, filling it the color, turning down the opacity and eracing the outlines and then setting the layer to soft lighting and it looks half decent haha

edit: not sure about gimp but in photoshop, just use the lasso tool to outline the car except the wheels, then just copy and paste on new layer and drag it down!

yeah, that's what i do, except i cut out the body, not the wheels, and copy it. then use the lasso tool to grap the wheels, and under shadow and such and move it UP, then PASTE the body on top so it's tucked under

Using Lasso tool Or masking [BETTER] Select the car and the backround image meeting at bottom of the bumper. Do Not select below bumpers only above that bottom point. than just cut->paste->crop and your done.

Another Fun one........ I made this one over satureated and overall too colorful... but I wanted something different, i also used cartoon filter on it like Mitch did.

You do realize that your car looks like that right? lmao

You have projectors, lift kit, and a bunch of ugly stickers, including a huge honda one.... Just as bad.
