Flared Wheel Arches

Open up your image:

Then lasso round half of the arch and all of the tyre like this:

Then do a copy and paste, and move the thing outwards a bit so the arch looks a bit beefier:

Then use the smudge tool to smudge the layer onto your background layer:

Looks a little wussy at the moment because thats the only mod I did to the car.:p Do the same for the back arch and slap on some rims and it'll look great.

Thanks jamesy. I needed this - the digimods tutorial is a little vague.

Wow great job jamesy, i just got Photoshop a few days ago and I've been digging up all the PS Tutorials you've made, and geez they really good and easy to understand. Nice job!:)

Also remember not to move the arch out too much - otherwise you'll have a monumental tire tread!

if you look at the digimods one, Pete takes the wheel arch further than what jamesy did, but wow, great tutorial, great finishing as well, looks pretty good, though not much of a difference, it made the car abit more cool, the finishing is good, just blur some colours on the front lip place then it will be fine...:p

nice tutorial anyways

It's a good tutorial but you picked a bad car to do it in as the TT already had big wheel arches.
