Chop Comp - Toyota Soarer UZZ30 / Lexus SC400

As the last chop-comp fizzled out quickly, I'm taking the liberty of starting a new one. Yeah, it seems unnecessary but no one seems interested in the Volvo - tell me if you're opposed to this, and I'll declare this thread a dud.
I'm going to post a car that should be a change of pace from the usual chop-comp fare:
(I'm sorry that I can't post the pic, it's too big)

A UZZ30 Toyota Soarer / Lexus SC400. This should be an interesting competition because this car has aftermarket kits available and it's (at least in Japan) a reasonably popular tuning platform.
If this fizzles out too, it's highly likely that chop-comps are going to stay dead for a while.

Ooooooooooh my soon-to-be daily driver.....damn you finance and not allowing me loans until I'm 18.....DAMN YOU!!!!
I'm in, but I'm not planning on winning because I only want to do the sort of mods I want to do. I might post two versions though, the one that I'm most likely going to be getting in real-life, and a heavily CGI version. Here goes nothin....
P.S. I'm surprised the Volvo one didn't work out....it was an easy car to mod....but anyway.

Out of all cars, this comp had to die? I really wanted to see the outcome of this too.

OK so my
Final Entry is this one
No fancy stuff, no rim change, just a CF hood(still learning how to do it better) and a set of simple vinyls. For my third work in Photoshop i guess it's nice

Word of advice for you though: when you add a "vinyl", try using blending options on that layer, to make it look like it's applied to the car.

Well, once there are enough entries (these things have essentially died - used to be one every week rofl.) the comp host will post a poll, and the winner will select a new car.

Well I ain't gonna win against Koenigsegg_rox. That car is a way better chop than mine, i'll admit it. But hey. It's good to practice once in a while. I"ll get better and better this way

. But i wont forget the good ol' NFS U2. And the others

That's the spirit... although, hey, you never known. I've seen creative designs win over skill many times.
If I get a bit of time later tonight (depends on how quickly my room gets finished,) I may make one. I've been meaning to get into PS, and the only thing I've made that hasn't been website related is this sig that I did yesterday, so I just might.
--EDIT--
I've got a WIP going, so my chop should make three and we can actually make a poll on this lol.

Nope, actually that was there. Besides, if I edited it after you posted, it would mention it below my post.
Well, wait... the whole sentence was an edit. But I didn't mention the poll prior to mentioning my WIP.
Anyway, now that I'm done breaking in the Xbox maybe I can get back to it...

Damnit...

EDIT:
Okay, I haven't done this (or anything really,) in Photoshop recently, so it's going kinda' slow, but here's a
WIP none-the-less.

I'm friggin' sick... haven't felt good the past three days. I have half a chop, it shouldn't take but an hour to finish.
(Sorry for snapping... I'm going to go throw up again now.)
