Thats a pretty good idea. Save time, and if you don't like it you don't have to waste a body trying it out.
 
wow, now THAT'S a good idea. awesome. I think you hit it on the nose Eddy. A collection would be awesome. So anyone could do that right? take a picture of the body mounted then put it on your computer. Draw an outline over the pic and erase everything you don't want?
 
I'm playing around with images from Pro-lines site. Photochop is an amazing tool. I'm sure they wont mind in the long run it will help them sell bodys. You think they would offer them up on their site as a tool.

these templates are made in photoshop. you can use photoshop to load a rc body pic into it. and with the use of photoshop tools you can draw lines around the body pic and then erase the inner graphics or make it all white. that way you got a template shown as the skyline. its reall easy and you can make them from different angles. top, side , front you name it. then you can print it and make a cool design with pencils, airbrush or you can try to make one with photoshop.

:cheers:
 
I seriously think this is the best idea I've run across on this forum so far. I'm new to the hobby but I find myself having a hard time getting creative when it comes to bodies. I think this will make it a lot easier to really see what I "see" in my head.
 
LOL... haha nice ride. like YOUR face in tha car. just be sure you dont get any fly's between those teeth. close the window :cheers:
