It's hard to do anything with that grille opening, that's a good idea you have.

no doubt on both accounts. i'm still playing with it and i'll post up some more PDQ, cause i've got a couple other ideas that need to get outta my head for the grille. i don't think this would be difficult to fabricate irl either - just some inserts to clean it up and some simple buckets for the lights.

Looks good. There are a lot of little touches you did that really work. It would be nice to see some more Cougars. Intersting color. I am going to have to go home and look at it that monitor.

Thanks. I have a flat screen CRT and a regular old CRT at home, both look different, then I put it on 2 other machines that had flat pannels and they both looked totally different. Anywhere from nasty brown, to copper to almost correct. It's supposed to be just a really red copper in my head. It's probably been the trickiest color I've tried to create that's for sure.

Looks even better bigger!!

I know what you mean about the color I had major problems trying to match the khaki jeep color on that 77 buick century I did.

Jeep color? That Suburban I did was supposed to be a jeep color ... is it just kind of medium brown metallic? We compaired my print to the guys actual Jeep and it wasn't too far off. If it's the same color, then yeah, tricky but it looks like you got it pretty dang close too ... or at least it does to me. Colors like that have to look right ... if it's supposed to be silver or red or blue, then it can look different from screen to screen and people get the general idea - but odd colors, no, subtle differences can make them totally wrong.

flat black with the stripe, no lights, turn sigs are opened for brake venting


this one has a little grille detail to bring in some of the factory look
