ZX Graphics

Fresh off the drawing board! I've had my mind on graphics recently, I didn't do too many body mods to the car but I did try to represent the fender flares with shading, I think it ended in miserable failure but that's just me. As you can probably tell, I took the ZXR theme and started running with it. Let me know what you think. (sorry for the bmp file type, the conversion to jpg really killed the color)

First one is Silver with Black, Red, and Orange stripes (the orange didn't show up very well) I lightened the area around the logos so it would be easier to see, the real car would be solid black. Also the center stripe on all of these cars would be painted to match the side stripes.


The second one is White with Black, Lime green, and Medium Green stripes.


Third is Medium Blue with Black and Light Blue stripes.


This last one is more racing inspired with the Huge ZXR script, I wanted something that stood out a bit more. Colors are the same as the stock ZXR paint scheme.

Interesting. I kind of like it, even though I pretty much hate graphics.

Yeah Bleach I know but it still looks cool though. And I also like the blue drawing with the ZX stretched across the body. Verry tight indeed!

Yeah, but my car isn't a ZXR now is it??

Thanks for the comments guys! They do an ego good.

I dont know if my car is going to be turboed yet or not so if it isn't the TURBO part of that last drawing would either be blank or the ZX from the other drawings. Most likely blank because I dont want to overdo it!

juggalo280ZX - It'll be a while before my car is ready for it but when I get there it will most likely be done in my garage with a paint gun and Very careful masking! But If I do get it done in vinyl I know a local shop in Lansing that can do it.

Very nice. You've got a sharp eye for details. I like it - definitely gives me some ideas, though I'm set on having only my shop logo angled across the side [in chrome vinyl yeah!], with the ZSpec logo across the windwshield and the sideskirt corner.

I'd like to see how it turns out if you do decide to mask it off and shoot it yourself. Sounds like quite a project with a great reward.
