A little photoshop work

phoonTy

Truckless. For now.
Slow morning at work, decided to practice some photoshop skills.

The original, Colorado Extreme

The new Syclone II for lack of a better name:

Not a great photoshop, but not as bad as it could be for my first major modification, trying to fit/modify the cladding to look okay on the Colorado body. It could use some minor tweaks, but my day just picked up so I have to leave it as is.

the photoshop is ok, unfortunately the truck is just absolutely hidious no matter what you possibly change on it.

Re: A little photoshop work

I'm pretty impressed, the SyTy cladding actually looks good on the Colorado/Canyon body. Now for some wheels & sport mirrors! Looks awesome:tup:

Too bad the Colorado SS will never be made. AWD would be killer too. But of course...

It's nice , but the front end, IE the front bumper needs to be more syty like , it needs a GMC style grill not a chevy grill syty style headlights it needs to be black , yea deffenetly black!! oh and ZR1 wheels :tup: :tup: :tup:

What really needs to come out is the Colorado Cruz concept. I'd totally buy that thing.

TJ, what would it look like with a couple inch chop on the roofline? My problem with the Colorado is the Cab/Front looks too big for the rest of the truck. Kinda like GM started out building a full size truck and decided to change midstream.

I like the syII. If it was awd with a turbo 5 I would buy it.

Re: A little photoshop work

No idea who it is. I think it would be cool to make a sequal to the Syclone and Typhoon, except do everything that GM didnt originally: offer more colors (still somewhat limited), offer either an auto or manual, AWD or RWD, and a choice of a naturally-aspirated Vortec Max 6.0L or a turbocharged I-5. Offer more options, and they will come:tup:

Yup, that would be totally cool. From what I hear, they'll be coming out with an extended cab Colorado SS with the 6.0 400 hp engine, options of RWD or AWD, we'll see what happens. One of these bada$$ trucks has gotta come out eventually. We're already kinda seeing it with the TrailBlazer SS and SRT Jeep, both really cool.

BTW mods, I see it fit that guy was banned. Thanks for keeping this a fun upbuilding community.

I have time to play with it more seriously this weekend. Like I said, it was slow at work and I couldn't get too carried away. I'll definitely try the roofline chop. I'd also like to drop it a little, change the wheels, and play with the colors some more. There's a lot of room for changes when I have the time. I'm also going to toy with the extended cab Extreme.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. Gives me something to work toward instead of just messing around. Even Chip Foose starts with an idea before cutting things up. :lol: :tup:

Re: A little photoshop work

nice , maybe just some ZR1, wheels lower it, needs more of a SYTY style bumper ..... chop the roof , a cowl hood get rid of the chevy emblem and a GMC style grill .....that would be perfect

Re: A little photoshop work

i cant say i would want them to start making new sytys just the thought of them not being as rare and all the rich punk kids that have no real appreciation for anything driving them would suck. kinda like all the kids driving mustang's around my neighborhood now.

the idea with concept you made is kinda cool but if they ever did make new syty's or anything remenicent of them i dont think having such close similarities in the cladding would be good. but rather something inspired by it instead of modified from it.

idk maybe its just me but it feels like dodge did with the charger
try to bring back a collector from the archives and royaly fubar it to hell
id prefer not to see any of it come back

but the tbss is another thing to look at on top of the other ideas
