teaser...



i assure you, just about everything has been tweaked one way or another...the greenhouse proportions, window lining and belt line represent about 3 hours right there.

more to come...

 

This is what YOU think it will look like or you just bored and tweaking stuff?

 

gotta night off.

im staying within the realm of what i think it could be based on lexus design concepts, and general lexus design progression.

 

looks like cross between a grand am and a corolla.. bland...

 

Hard to tell a difference aside from the door handles, side skirt and it being lowered.

 

Meh

 

the entire greenhouse is different.

 

wait until you see the front when im done. evil laugh

 

Dont forget the yellow fogs

 

I sense much fail in here.

 

Go watch porn.

 

oh yeah?

 

GS-F style grill....thought that was coming.

 

you shall see...

 

How do I 'unthank' someone?

 

...shrugs...

 

I put on my 3d glasses and it didnt work...

 

So its going to cause headaches...?

 

built by the new design team of Michael J Fox and Muhammad Ali?

 

I think you're pretty decent with Photoshop, but what's the point?

 

^^^ i enjoy...and i have the holiday in solitude.

 

Is it wrong that I laughed?

 

see ya in hell, new friend.

ps... thermonmermon, those photoshops look good, very detailed and tedious work.. by no means am i trying to criticize by making my dumb comments lol

 

lol, if you want to be realistic, put the wheel gap back to the stock 12"

 

you bastards happy now? hehe 12 hour job.

wait until i add the lighting effects to make that puppy pop.

 

spot on overlay - so you could see all of the tweaks.



side by side

 

So the next IS is going to be smushed and slightly longer?

Sorry, but no like

 

final

 

Nice, but looks like more of a LCI than a total redesign.

 

Nah....still too corolla-ish!

 

Nice, but there's no way the 2013 will look like that. Not sure if that's what LCI means but the chop looks more like a MMC than a FMC. In fact, that's what the refreshed IS should have looked like.

Don't get me wrong, it looks good.... just I don't think they'd make the new model so similar.

 

ok, i just got back from the garage. i eyed my 2g up and down....the rendering is NOT similar! haha

seriously, i think the front is a pretty accurate interpretation of where lexus is going with their upcoming models. the side of the rendering, however, is VERY similar. maybe not to me, since i made all of the changes, and i also drive a 2is daily. but anyway, i didnt change the overall body of the car (esp. the sides), b/c frankly, i dont think lexus will either.

 

ok, last finishing lexus touch to the c-pillar and the final side by side

 

Your work is good. I doubt the real thing will be.

 

your talents are awe inspiring, im surprised more people arent complementing you on how much work it takes to alter stuff like this

 

thats really cool mang... Im down...


... now, if you can fix the Lexus SC please!

 

thanks man. yes, lots of work. after 200 layers in photoshop altering the original, you wonder why you didnt bother starting from scratch...its frustrating when people dont notice certain changes, when in fact, most parts have been modified. completely understandable i guess.

you should see the outcome of a similar thread started on clublexus. members were basically cursing me out for misleading them with the thread. they neglected to read my explanation that it was my photoshop. they assumed that i was leaking an official rendering...as if i cheated them. i was "wasting their bandwidth with this crap"

which is why i will always stay loyal to a-cl.

 

Take it from a real graphic designer, your work isn't THAT good. I'm not doubting you got those reactions, but I can tell instantly from your renderings that they're in fact that, renderings. You need some work on your perspective and reflections, but otherwise for a novice it's nice work. By no means would a pro be confused thinking it was a photo though.

 

SO much hate in this thread...lol

 

Really..???
