First; many thanks to Josh K, Carter H, Nitro Mike and Rob Hartley for introductions, support and help trying to make this truck happen!

Carter has done such a great job that we're having trouble making a decision. We're going to poll it and see what you think (Green on green...help me out).

1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

**John Fabris** · 05-09-2007, 05:05 PM

Cool designs!!! First one just seems to fit better then the rest of them....

jb4short · 05-09-2007, 05:07 PM

I immediately liked the first one....but it almost started a war here...LOL

This poll is an easier decision maker

**SactoJim** · 05-09-2007, 05:14 PM

I wanna know a little more about the software required to do this.......that's just plain fricken cool!!

What's the process?
How much is the software?
Does it take multiple software titles to get to the finished rendering?

I do CAD stuff for a living, so I'm just naturally curious.

I don't know what software but I do know that the software at www.hokdigitalpaintbooth.com is really nice! Strongly recommend watching the demo

smirch9 · 05-09-2007, 05:26 PM

Very nice choices all around. Its hard to choose which one, I like em all!

cstanley · 05-09-2007, 05:32 PM

tough one. i actually like the cream/green one best. very classy, subtle, and smooth. understated...

I love the first one!! Cant say i've ever seen anything like that one. Ive seen trucks similar to the others except 6&7. Number 2 is good, but the colors on 1 are more appealing.

kcmotorsports · 05-09-2007, 06:39 PM

I'm for the creme over black myself...BUT I built an extended cab dually with pearl white over emerald green with tribals seperating. Much like the scheme you've got to choose, it was beautiful...like candy!

msgross · 05-09-2007, 06:51 PM

#1 for me but they all look nice...

Brad · 05-09-2007, 08:41 PM

Honestly, I don't like any of the choices but I voted for the 1st one over the others.
Okay, let the flames begin. But make them tribal flames please.

jb4short · 05-09-2007, 08:42 PM

HartRod put me onto the idea of making an investment in rendering our paint scheme before spending money on paint. I can't begin to explain how happy I am with our choice to go ahead and pay to have these done and we're grateful for his advice.....frankly it's less expensive than a decent gallon of paint and there's no guesswork in what it will look like finished. Anyone wanting this type work done can PM Blaz-air (Carter) and have it done for their own project.

Josh- I know you'll like the end result.

**BOSS** · 05-09-2007, 08:50 PM

Sorry but i can decide between them,i like them all and dont think you could go wrong with any of them

CG · 05-09-2007, 08:57 PM

I like the first one but not with tribal style flames. I like the licks of the flame on that one better than the others, just not the overdone tribal part of em. Im sure whatever you pick though will look great.

**Hart_Rod** · 05-09-2007, 09:20 PM

To many choices and they all look great!!!!!!

Awesome job Carter.

Can't wait to see it done John. Does that mean the Suburban gets bumped off the website?!

2nd_wnd · 05-09-2007, 09:39 PM

I like 1, 5, and 7
too tough to decide

fatboys69 · 05-09-2007, 09:41 PM

I personnally like the green tribal flames over green base, it is really cool !!!!
I live in the same town as me and we are friends and run around together and it was a tough decision for him to sell the truck, but now he is stoked !!!!
We can't wait to see the final version. I can remember the old blue gmc version. Your version will be beautiful when completed, can't wait to see it for real, hopefully you can come to Dayton with it, or at least if nothing else we can see the pics. COOL !!!!

jc · 05-09-2007, 10:12 PM

#1 jumed right out at me!!!

st1x10 · 05-09-2007, 10:15 PM

I love the green over white two tone. It is SWEET. Sorry I don't like flames.
