Pixel Cars

[m11ler]

Somehow came across a forum where they mod little pixel cars, been giving it a go on some saxos lol, its pretty fun.. The standard cars themselves are from the pixel car forum, i did not make them, i just edited them.

Heres the standard cars if anyone else wants to try..

http://i1037.photobucket.com/albums/a457/m11ler/m11ler.jpg

Dunno if this is old news to everyone, but im really enjoying it lol :D

[Caino]

how do you do these ?

[m11ler]

Well i got the bases off the internet, and then on photoshop you just zoom in really far and you can edit them pixel by pixel with the pencil tool. Its pretty easy :)

[m11ler]

I just done a chav kitted saxo, i'll post it in a sec

[m11ler]

http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y208/vtr_bad-boy/BMWE46Compactnearlythere.png

starting from scratch is a hard one as my car is rare and there isnt any pixel templates thats already been done
just my luck but a few hours later i get it done

[VTR-GAZzA]

i don't under stand how? is there a tutorial or post the site up? would be quit nice to learn how :)

[crabzy]

i don't under stand how? is there a tutorial or post the site up? would be quit nice to learn how :)

+1 it sure would be nice to learn :)

[m11ler]

just search pixelartcars in google.. theres a forum about it with tutorials and stuff

[m11ler]

robbieflatarch, hope this is alright

http://i1037.photobucket.com/albums/a457/m11ler/robbieflatarch.jpg

[crabzy]

cheers mate easy todo ?

[m11ler]

Yeahh really easy, as i said, i dont make the car bases, i just edit them. So its just zooming in really far on photoshop and editing it pixel by pixel lol

[crabzy]

should do a tutorial mate :P

[MunkyBoy]

I've had some awesome fun with these today. I'm really getting into it! I've done a mini clubman, a BMW E30 Tourer and a Corsa C - and Wingnuts VTR :P

[VTR-GAZzA]

wouldn't it take ages to edit a whole car pixel by pixel and how do you know what colours to put on :S

[VTR-GAZzA]

and +1 on the tutorial i don't get the ones on there they seem confusing

[MunkyBoy]

This is just an example of how to quickly change the colour of a car with CS5.

Open up the base image.
http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1004/5182128066_1ae39873c2_z.jpg

Zoom in so you can see the pixels.
http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4110/5181527931_2cb3d289d7_z.jpg

Using the polygonnal lasso, select the areas that will be painted another colour. (Wing mirrors, Grill, Wheels, Lights) Then cut these using the cut tool, and paste them into additional layers.
http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4152/5182128388_84b8c33916_z.jpg
http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1305/5182128520_37eee57130.jpg

Select the base car image again in your layers.

http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1401/5181528147_dd91ec2773.jpg

Open Hue and Saturation from this menu.

http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1304/5181528325_c29c34064e_z.jpg

With values set as default, your car will look standard, Move saturation up and down to change the colour around slightly.

If you move saturation down, the colour will drain out (Less colour, more greyscale) If you move it up, will be more vivid.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/50062435@N08/5181528473/sizes/z/in/photostream/

Then open up Brightness and Contrast from the same menu.

http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1368/5182129018_0d4a1ff33b_z.jpg

Turn down the brightness for a darker car, turn up the contrast more more shadowing basically...


This is literally a 2 minute guide... You can spend a lot longer to make it look better!

As for the widemouth and colouring different parts. Just go to your new layers, mask off again with the lasso and just pencil in the new colour with the pencil tool.

[m11ler]

When i change the colour.. i just duplicate the base layer.. adjust the hue saturation to how i want it.. the only bits that have colour where you dont want them is the rear lights.. so i just rub them out so you can see the base layer

[m11ler]

Played around with a nova this morning lol

http://i1037.photobucket.com/albums/a457/m11ler/Nova2.jpg

[MunkyBoy]

I masked off the different bits into different layers so they are easy to adjust and turn on and off.

Like the widemouth and the grill, if you don't like it - you can just turn them off or rub them out without affecting the original base.

[m11ler]

Cool man, post up your edits

[MunkyBoy]

[PeteSaxo]

Could someone post a link of the base of a saxo please.

[m11ler]

Its in my first post of this thread

[xxtiny_vts_angelxx]

you always start with a base and then mod it from there

unless you have a car that there is no base to kick you off
there is plenty of sites that help you out
they have parts and all sorts for you to use

Yes but ive only got 24 days left, unless someone can get me a c-0-d-3 ;)

You can do it in paint i think.
