PHotoshopped 2 door Rx-8 coupe and roadster.

Hey I spent a little bit of time doing this because I was bored, I think a 2 door Rx-8 looks really good and Mazda should make a car with this similar styling. Tell me what you think about the photos.

Standard body style Shinka Rx-8:

Rx-8 2 door Coupe:

Rx-8 Roadster:

the two door looks a little weird because you kept the same roof length, mainly the back should be moved forward a tad. but the convertible looks perfect!

Well I know it is a Shinka due to blackberry pearl (not a rotary newb) but I meant the usual body style.

Well this is the first time I've chopped the roof off of a car so excuse the imperfections. Also I've been using photoshop for less than 2 months.

I could do somehting like this too but the vert was my main project, I made the 2 door because I planned on making the vert later on. I probably would've used FD doors in a more serious coupe project. (also I picked a pain in the *** color to work with since the Rx-8 is the only car that would have it, well Cx-7 too)

On the coupe, try splicing the rx7 roofline onto it. It may look better with the shorter, more tapered roofline

Thanks, only problem would be finding/replicating that color but I could always make the purple parts a different color, but I'll try it later. This was enough photoshopping for a while.

Any other things you guys think would look intresting? I am finding the Rx-8 a fun car to photoshop. Anyone like the back/front of a different car or want to see a different variant?

Here is an actual FD with the rx8 front end
I'm sure this has had to of poped up on the club already



I like the chops you did with the 2 door shinka, but the roadster version needs a little more refinement. the back end just does not seem right to me
