    Im sorry, but you are really bad at explaining your tutorial. I am new to photoshop, and everywhere i look, they always think that i am a pro at it or something. I like your technique, but you cannot explain it at all, and i am not getting the same results as you are. explain things better please…need i say it again?

    People, why most of you is concentrating on what car is it. The tutorial is GREAT. Easy to use and understand.

    Regarding car – use what you own!

    The overall images looks pretty good here, but not only is that not a Mustang, it’s not even a Ford. That is a ’53 Chevy Coupe.

    Hi, using CS5 and my photoshop only has ‘Registration Target 1′.. which doesn;t help at all, so I don’t even have the shape needed.. Is there a download I can get so I can have it? Cause I am doing a design course and I LOVE retro, this is an effect I would love to use…

    thanks
