I know for myself I'm not good enough with photoshop to interpret all the ideas I have going on in my head. At the same time its not so easy and can be rather tedious to draw a fiero with correct proportions and such. Therefore I decided to create some templates you can just print up so you can just draw your ideas right on the car! I just used a picture of my car so I didn't do a fastback model, however the on the last one you can just draw the fastback in. If anyone has ideas on how to improve these or can think of a better angle let me know!
if anyone wants to see what different rims look like on their car, or what their car would look like in a different color scheme, ill do it in photoshop for free.
good work tho hines, i bet this will be very helpful to many people

i really enjoy using photoshop, i just lack creativity lol. so every now and then i offer to do things for people, like make graphics or edit photos and whatnot. ive got a pretty simple and quick method for swapping rims now, since ive been doing it a lot to see what different rims look like on a fiero. its not a secret technique or anything lol. and changing colors is pretty easy too, but many people dont have or know how to use photoshop.
(right now im trying to figure out how to access all the awesome new features of Photoshop CS5, but, since it doesnt get released for around a month, there are no guides or instructions )

That'd be fantastic! Would you also be able to put some wheels on it? Lace preferably

Kudos to you (and a positive rating) for taking the time to post the sketches.
When I designed the body mods for my Fiero, I took a couple photos of it, and traced the outlines (using carbon paper) onto a blank sheet pf paper. Then I used the copy machine at work to make a bunch of duplicates, and doodled away.

I cant say I have any good reference pictures to do it, if you have a picture of one at a similar angle I can give it a shot... And thanks for the appreciation y'all

Just a friendly bump for a great idea. Excellant work!
I don't suppose there is a way you can do straight on front and back views? I'd love to play specifically with front and rear bumpers. Either way great work and thanks for sharing.
