Newbie Re: Cuban Car

Used OnOne Crayon and canvas texture for this beauty. Remember those old cars fondly except my lead footed cousin, she died in a crash in a 1948 Chrysler. Still great looking car, especially for being in cuba. I would think that the salt air would have taken it's toll heavily.

Re: Cuban Car

Thank you Amica, I happen to like old cars, so I could not resist.

I am a new member to RetouchPro, so this is my first post. I just want to thank everyone for their contribution to this wonderful site. It has been a great resource for me to expand my PS skills.

Taking much of the information found on th site I was able to do my first piece. All done with PS AHB, a Sketch layer and serveral layers and masks for adjustments.

Thanks Again, Peter
