who wanted that variation on a blue solara? ( photoshop)

by **Shoe** » Tue Jul 20, 2004 7:13 am

I cant remeber wich post i read it in but someone was looking for a variaton of the blue not to dark and not too light and hinted on the g35's blue.

I did a quicky here its not g35 blue but its inbetween.

the g35 has a metalic and the solara has a plasticy gloss to it in this pic so i went with a diff route.

That blue is just what the doctor ordered and I would have probably gotten it if it was available. Nice job!

I'll tell you what, if the Solara came out in that color for the 2005 year, I wouldn't hestitate in getting it. Awesome color!

oh i agree, that is one suck looking color for the car.. man i wish they had that color out.. much better looking.. almost like a counterpoint with the absolutely red they have which looked alittle out of place in my mind with the other colors they had which seemed more toned down

Toyota should have offered that blue instead of the light cosmic blue and a dark blue like the new Maxima's dark blue instead of the oceanic blue.

and 1 more varation with da grill ( damn im even talkin like mike now) and a slight color change.

as you can see down here the shadows from the reflection on the bumper of the houses accross the street didnt match up when i started gunning for the metalic look but im sure you will let it slip

Didn't even notice and still don't see what you're talking about. Damn, why are we so critical of ourselves?

That's SWEET looking Shoe...You've out done yourself. So...how bout the grille website? LOL.

I like the first blue much better. The second blue has a bit too much purple in it (starting to look purplish). First blue is solid bright blue and pretty close to the Acura CL and TL blue from '01-'03 years. That's a better blue than the "bit too bright" blue of the G35.
