My first photoshoped kitt.I didn't finish the reflection of the hubcaps yet but I'm working on it.Hardest part for me is the scanner.
My dream car If I had the cash for some certain modifications.
Anyone ever thought of how awesome kitt would look like this but with spinner hubcaps as the bowling ball rims he has in this shot?

This has been an existing photo on the Internet for years. It's an original picture of a normal Trans Am, but there's also been a Photoshopped K.I.T.T. version of it as well. I think the only difference with yours is the "bowling ball" hubcaps.

True the picture has been around for years.I found a very high rez image to work with without a scanner so this is my work.The scanner was the hardest part for me,the reflection of the scanner,cutting the piece out and clonestamping the scanner area to look like its naturally like that and the shadowing of the inner rim of the scanner ,removing the lettering on the hood,side door were the easiest.I'm having a bit of trouble removing the name Pontiac off the left light.I never had any experience with gradient letter removing.
I read yopur post and it got me thinking.I've been collecting thousands of images of kitt,replicas and etc.I wondered if I already saved this image your talking about to my pc.I found one but it blew me away.The work on the nose surpases mine tremendously.

I'm more impressed by the hubcaps/rims then anything else. Where did you get a high enough resolution of them to work with? They're nice and crisp and clear and it looks like you used skew to put them in place.

where did you get the hi-resolution rims/hubcaps to work with or were those part of the other person's manipulation?

Excellent photoshopping

Yes I too have seen that original TA photo long time ago, perfect basephoto for KITT renditions

Here's what I did in 2003:

There was no other persons renditions.I started from scratch and added a scanner,hubcaps,removed a few words on the car.The hubcaps I had from very high rez images I have of kitt.I have a 6 gig collection of knight rider media I have been collecting for over 8 years.

Love it.

KARR looks cool like that. In this body style, I think all black looks better than what silver/black would have looked. Nice work on all the photoshops.
What version of PhotoShop do you guys use? I have PhotoShop Elements 5.
