My new job description - Graphic artist: Playing with Sketchy racing car
I’m not a graphic artist! I’m a Cadd Engr and my responsibility is to keep an eye of the latest cad software specifically those software used in construction. Training and implementation of this new software whenever the management decided to purchase and use is also included in my duties. After my lunch break my boss called me and he handed me the sketch below
he asked me to prepare a graphic presentation of the sketch car and he needs it TODAY! .. looks like I got my new job description.. a graphic artist - which I like on the brighter side coz I will have the opportunity to play again with my not so familiar photoshop skill.. eheheh.
The sketch above is the concept sketch of a race car and some notes and race car gear drawn by his staff. Using the google image search I browse the images in the hopes to find inspiration and idea how I’m going to colorize the sketch and make it presentable that will atleast meet the standard of my boss. After around 4 hours of experimenting and playing with the colors, selecting & editing images and font sytles in Photoshop I come up with the image below.. hahahah. Not a professional graphic artist output eh? a product of experiment, frustration, time pressure and imagination but I’ve got “wonderful” remark from my boss… I don’t think this image deserve it but I will not object because the beauty and art lies in the eye of the beholder..:) If you will give remark, what would it be??.. be honest don’t worry I will approve all the comments - positive or negative..
Don’t ask me how its done.
if you will look closely and observe keenly you will find many graphic discrepancies and errors.. I only noticed it now when I click the image to view in large image.. Can you name some??

you did not colored your sketch but placed a car and put some text to them..suggestion for the text to look real..create a psd file in gray scale then displace the text to it make it look embedded
in the eye of an expert photoshop-user i’m sure such errors couldn’t escape.. heheh
the biggest mistake that I didn’t retouched is the text at the helmet.. lolz.. i don’t have enough time to review it..
thanks for the observation..
have a nice day.
