design a Chevrolet CUV  vehicle

aw $h! !!....LOL.

Like I said, who READS ???...allright I guess i have to change it a bit then....damn.

OK I changed the whole thing....you can use the other one too if ya want, just PRETEND it's a Chevy !!...lol.

THIS one there can be NO Doubt that it is a Chevy Blazer !!!!

I did alot of work on this one to get a 2-door "Coupe Truck" look to it, rehaping the entire roof sections, side panels and of course the frontend, & did ALL of this in Alais Sketchbook, not in Adobe Photoshop, in other words this is all drawn by "mouse" so there was no section chops of pix at all, just redesign...I thought it came out pretty good too considering ???...it may need a few finishing touches , but...not bad for NO PS techniques used in it, IMO !!...?

BTW isn't the LAMBADA a Dance ?????.....................yuk yuk yuk !

That's what SHE said!

That's what SHE said!

I don't think speaking was possible at the time

MrOUTSIDETHEBOXdetroitmetal.. I think most of these you just over-design them and they turn out looking.. well.. outside the box. Too overdesigned, and because of it not many people care for your chops.

My computer's been pissing me off.. Open up photoshop and less than 2min later it freezes up. So yeah.. more time would be good.. Friday should be good I think

Friday it is. Have at it everyone! Please?

About all I could come up with...

Be a nizzle.. vote for the shizzle. :AH-HA_wink:

Honestly though.. that was all 04monteintimdator's idea. He told me what to do since he doesn't know how to chop too well.

Well I'm glad you left the tri-shields on the wheels and the ventiports on the hood so we know for sure it's a Chevrolet. Thanks!

tottally bored at school during finals..im an office assistant so we dont have finals...no photoshop at school so i improvised...like mute does :AH-HA_wink:

Well I'm glad you left the tri-shields on the wheels and the ventiports on the hood so we know for sure it's a Chevrolet.  Thanks!

Edited June 17, 200619 yr by MRDETROITMETAL

Well.. it's official.. my PC hit the $h!ter.. either the motherboard or cpu is crapping out. I ordered some new parts but they won't get here till next week, so I guess count me out of this one.. I'll finish what I had going and post it in the showcase when done.

MRDETROITMETAL: You do realize Lambda is a whole hell of a lot bigger than anything the HHR would ride on, right?

MRDETROITMETAL: You do realize Lambda is a whole hell of a lot bigger than anything the HHR would ride on, right?

YEA I DO...But YOU have to use your visualization on this a bit to understand better my approch ( I guess)... as this would be alot BIGGER TRUCK than a HHR hence the absence of hhr "side fenders " providing a more lambada fit inside, anyway...see?

THAT is why I chopped a 2 door model here, I did use an HHR as a starting point cuz as Nos said, I did not want to "work over" the pixs too much and the HHR has exactly what I was looking for, I Hate 4 doors, period.

This could be Lambada with NO PROBLEMS at all, BUT shorter than a foor door ?...umm, NO, not really just defined the body as a 2 door RWD chassis set up, I think this IS a better direction esp for BLAZER !!!...no?

I dunno but I like it better than anything else so far....

Edited June 16, 200619 yr by MRDETROITMETAL

I don't really post on here, but I'm frequently reading the articles on the homepage. That said, this chop looked like too much fun to pass up. So here's the Chevy Nomad Wagon.

AHHH, OK...here is the redo of my first pix here (dont use that) !!!

...this ONE IS A CHEVY...no doubt about it.

OK then, here we go ...you got 3 Blazer concepts from me now, and I didn't wanna do nutin for this contest...LOL.

Chevy Blazer ;

resized...

well I thought it was resized....PB will NOT do it its only an 800 wide tho ???

Again I am NOT using photoshop anymore, this is Alais sketchbook pro...

works real nice too for drawings.

But I am just starting to get the hang of it so ...be nice OK ??

LMAO

LIKE THATS GONNA HAPPEN.

Edited June 17, 200619 yr by MRDETROITMETAL

Mr. ThinkOutsideoftheBox...

I actually like that last one from the front wheels back.. except that the front doors are like 8 feet wide.. But its body is pretty nice other than that.

OH! And "Lambda" is not "Lambada." Don't say Lum-bah-duh. Say "Lamb (as in Lamb Chop.. the dude below) duhhh."

Fly.. the above is not my "Lamb(duhh) Chop"

Edited June 16, 200619 yr by NOS2006

LMAO...and you like that part of the design cuz it's the Camaro part, the front is the Blazer...and yea the door IS wide so your kids Could get in the back seats without any trouble at all, its an old school design trick from the 70's tho, ala the Malibu and Cutlass body stlyes from the mid seventies.

Hey, your are a FUNNY guy...

Mr Lamb Chop !!

BTW I liked your SS concept chop too very ah,,,Camaro like. seems we do have similar Taste sometimes,...you like lamb chops ????...LOL

Edited June 17, 200619 yr by MRDETROITMETAL

Here's mine:

North...Honda or Saturn ???,....I dunno if thats a LAMB CHOP either...LOL !

very nice execution,..wrong Platform (like my HHR) I think tho ?

(not that it matters cuz about anything could fit on a Lambda base, IMO.)

He used the Saturn OUTLOOK as his base.

well got the computer back up an running.. so I'm gonna try to finish this chop

EDIT:

And here's my entry, wanted to do more but my mind was blank on ideas

Edited June 17, 200619 yr by Decka

Nice, Decka. The only problem I have is I think the grill should be a little smaller or the headlights should be a little bigger. Still a great idea though.

I really like both Northstar's and Decka's.. both are well-executed and very practical. Nice job, gentlemen..

I agree with Nos, both are well done (same truck too, huh) ??

...but, for my taste a bit conservitive, (damn 4 doors) but then...lol !!

Nice chops really tho.
