I just a noob that for half a year been LAZY AND RUBBISH, suddenly got spirit to use photoshop yesterday... Ahahaha. I also can't believe I did this by myself.... o-o"

Opps, one more source image forgot to add in, the dragon vinyl on the RX8 (this one is PSD):

Sorry missing for a week ...

Widescreen? I try work it out but can't promise much. Cuz the original resolution was 1280... I will try.
The radar? No I'm not using the radar, I just cut the cloud part to use them. (lol I might as well ass it on later!)
The dragon vinyl? LOL I add that last minute... As well add my nick on it... ngeh ngeh ngeh

I still sense alot of flwas on the graphics so I might spent some more times to fix them...

Ouch!!! Replaced the rear Lancer-X (cuz looks too fake) with a Lancer-IX. Tweaking the car tooks me more than 90 minutes... I read that some of you want widescreen version. From the beginning I know that direct resizing will totally ruin the graphic, since 1280 to 1680 is over 25% increase... So I figure up a unique plan : add up additional fake area. Ahh, this tooks about 3 hours... A screenshot of behind-the-scene:

'fake-area' work-in-progress

I also spent a few minutes adjust one for 1600*1200. But of course, all 3 of those wallpapaers have slightly different looking due to some re-adjustment of some layers caused by differences in resolution. If you need any other resolution, I think it pretty easy you may just adjust yourself from now on... It really P.I.T.A. to adjust those layers, since my PC was pretty turtle...

Note: Duh, LCD have different view appearences compared to CRT... and I notice serious flaws when I view on LCD... Fix it later. I hope your monitor not too bright... ahahahaha

LINKS UPDATED ON FIRST POST

I already post on an Alienware Invader mod around, more to come when I got idea. Actually now working on a Stalker Clearsky mod...

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/817780

I got no time to touch it now. But I will add the 'remove background car' to my list. I also want to remove the Lancer-IX la, not good.

@ lord_aminkin

There's not really anything perfect. What I did also didn't comes out well, what I did is, keep put some layers and blending to tweak it until it looks nice. So, you needs alot of time to tweak it. 95% of those layers are use to tweak the object until it looks nice:

OK. When I got time, want to improve the RX-8 and lancer-X reflection surface. Remove the Lancer-IX... I try something else...

you guys found any problem with the left and right side of the widescreen edition? So far I think ok, just got some angle problem with the left shop, also no reflection on the road... THe tree on the right too fake, remove...

Don't have a good PC to play... So not into those yet

If I got the mood I maybe make something out. But there are several other artworks I ain't completed yet...

blur ? Impossible. I save it on JPEG max lvl12 Standard compressing. ...

I can't really make all the rasolutions lah, cuz there over 40 resolution types... LOL... You may just cut it out to any resolution you needs.

Btw, not very active recently. But I did have another wallpaper under working... But it ah... space/sky thing 100% done with Photoshop Brush (and little filtering).
