So, I just started doing 'chops', and I'm just testing the water here to see how things turn out. Anyone give me some advice/tips to improve?

Cheers

It is by no means perfect and I understand I still need a lot of practice. Just trying for some advice



Base:

Hi, next time pls give the base pics so we can compare and tell our opinion about each chop...

They're both there This was just my first try at changing the background

ohh, I'm sorry.. I was careless this time.. :DD

Hello and welcome to autemo (seem to have been a lot of new members recently )

Not a bad looking chop here, some simple mods, but they seem to have worked quite well
For a first backdrop change it's a decent effort too, but with a couple of the common beginner mistakes - you've left the old backdrop showing through the windows
This can be a real pain to fix - generally you have to cut out and delete that area, then draw on some extra reflections or add some more colour. You might want to have a quick search here for background changes: http://www.autemo.com/forums/?t=6960

As for the rims they fit really well, and look great on this chop
The only thing I'd mention is that there aren't many mods made to the base - chopping an already modified base often makes things tougher as it can be hard to know what to change. But keep going man, I hope to see more soon
