Tutorials

Welcome to the chopaholic tutorials. My ultimate goal for this section is to have the largest collection of tutorials and reference databse on the web, so you can have the opporunity to create your own custom rides without having to search all over the web for different instructions.



- There are many ways to do many things in photoshop. I am going to show you the easiest ways I've learned to do certain things. If this is your first time learning how to photoshop cars, take your time and learn the basics first. It takes alot of practice to master each step, but if you take it one step at a time, soon enough it will all come together, and you too can be chopping like the pros.



- All tutorials are based in photoshop, but if you're running a different paint program, it should be fairly easy to apply the same principles to your application.



- This section is expanding all the time, so keep checking back for new tips and tricks.
