Default evil_ss stato chop #1

This is the image ive come up with so far.I didnt change it to radically because i wanted to retain some the natural toughness of the stato, i basically enhanced what was already there.I did a pearl purple/pink paint job, custom plates, painted skirts, painted pin stripe, lowered, gtr xu1 rims, clear indicators, VZ SS side panel flutes, 6/71 blower, ausv8 sticker, welded rear doors, shaved door handles, deleted antenna, red tint, polished all chrome, orange gradient in grille, removed fnt left 1/4 panel sticker, custom 6/71 blower reflection on bonnet, clearer headlights, planted new grass at rear, built new wall (complete with mortar) and removed parking bays.I did a shite load of blending,shadows, skews etc to get it all looking fairly seemless.I couldve done a lot more but i have no net access at home right now, so i couldnt get the parts i wanted.









Heres the chopped one by itself

As an 'artist' () you shouldn't worry about getting alot of comments, you should just be happy with the end results.

It's a good chop man, pimptastic.

Looks great John.
Mega shine on the headlights and indicator, AV8 sticker on windscreen and a big $$ engine in there as well i see.
Only criticism from me is the colour. Not a fan big fan of it but Im sure others will love it.

If my avaters titties are a 10 then i give your chop a 9.5

Cheers
