One thing I've noticed since recently joining the VW community is that aside from what style of VW we prefer there seems to be two main types of VW fans.
Those who love the originality of the humble beetles and those freaks such as me who find the Volksrod one of the sexiest things on the road.
Now one thing I'd love to do to help anyone who may see it of use is to be able to show them what their ride may look like in any particular color or added mags or chopped or just slightly messed with.
Now I'm no professional at this but I've used this technique to help me envisage my custom motorcycle and I thought maybe I could help anyone with how there own pride and joy may look.
This is a rough knock up of what I'm into and what I can do, I do have limits but I love a challange.

Well done, lots of effort there!

If you're bored...

I'm hoping my next project will be a type3 notch in the old 50's (raised suspension-big rear/small front wheels/tyres) style ala this:

A mock-up of how it would look would be awesome if you have the time.

Thanks,

Mick.

The Beetle I have in my garage is pretty real as well, except I can't change it's color quite as easy.

Hey Lee, serious props for the work and effort you've put into your 68, I've just been perusing through your site and a lot of effort has gone into your car and it shows.
