Got the Genuine Parts one minimized for now in FlexiSign, Lots of clean up on that one. Still Learning too.

So I set it aside for now and decided to make up a HHR Decal based on the one I have seen online.

Just using it as a Base and Revamping it totally to my likes.

One will have the OEM tail lights and I will do it with the '55 Chevy tail lights that I have. I want a headlight as well. A little more Detailed but still just a HHR representation thats reconizable as an HHR.

Already have a full window, front bumper, rear spoiler, Visor, need to redo the wheel wells into a closer represantation of the real ones, add a rear bumper, several more little details.

Gotta ouline the window so it has the black rubber surrounding it, just playing.

Made the Hood more closely to the HHR's hoods shape, changed the windsheilds angle and the roofline.

No surfboard needed around here so thats gone.

Looking at Morticia on one monitor as I work in Flexi on my Wacom Cintiq.

I'll post a pic when it's done and cut.

Blocking in some detail on my HHR Panel Decal File. Still a rough work in progess, just thought i'd post little updates to it as I go along with it.

Nothings set in stone and the rectangles will get modified into proper shapes.

Still a ways to go yet.

I Revised my NO Fat Chicks Decal. Reshaped her breast added a nipple (well it's now getting Colder outside) and changed the wording a bit.

I like vintage stuff like this and the 7UP one I made.

My Enclosed Trailer may get Colorful.

Or since they are just Practice pieces I may just toss them out.

Thanks,

It's getting there, just want the main basic shapes of the HHR identifiable.

Lots of refinment Details to go but my basic shapes are all there.

Tweak them each until they have the look I am after.

Any of them really, but yeah the hhr. Reminds me of the infinity commercials. Just a 300+ dpi JPEG would do.
