I want to get better. What tips do you have for me as this is pretty much my first go at doing something complex. I’m thinking the next stage is making my own vinyl lettering or maybe redoing some real life drift vinyls instead of doing the easy thing and putting the premade stuff on there. Advice appreciated.
You’re on the right track there, even many fantasy painters (including myself) started out painting logos & custom text. There are plenty of people who are willing to help if you get stuck. You might consider trying to take photos that actually show off your design more, people usually post 2 or 3 from different angles & maybe more zoomed in
Thanks for your input. Pretty disappointed at the payoff at the moment 100 cr per download. Considering how many hours these things take. If I did what I wanted to do and put in Lettering and designed my own custom stickers. Probably about a week rather than the two days it did take. And you can’t even make a decent profit on flipping cars anymore with your paints. I guess I understand though. They have to balance the economy carefully.
All of the better painters around here will tell you to always make your own text/fonts instead of using the canned ones from the editor (unless it’s an EXACT match on a logo). And we feel your pain about the time it takes to complete logos, vinyls and designs. Some of the more complex designs will include individual vinyls and logos that will take days and/or weeks just by themselves.
I think all painters would agree with you on that.
A word to the wise, enter your design/s in the weekly comps.
