Whe are going to get owned if someone asks us 2+2.

hmm... I'd say go have a look at the advanced choppers portfolios and you'll see. Everyone has a different style, but the key thing is to develop your own style and get good at that.

i couldn't agree more with klaus.
there isn't a set way to become elite/advanced by doing good reflections, or an awesome bodykit change etc. neither is it about the first person to complete a full brush.
picture yourself as wanting to PAY a chopper to render your car. what would you look for in there? a combination of extremely clean work, a lack of the stereotypical mistakes a lot of people still make, and your own style as klaus said. You would want one of a kind artwork to a high standard in every respect.
