I used to read car magazines from UK as a kid after school, because the local tuning mags in Oz were rubbish at the time. lol

It cost a fortune being from overseas but I still love them to bits as their styling was so differnet to what Im used to. So for years I bought Fastcars, Maxpower and Redline and I remember one day flicking through this old issue of RL (#90 June 2005) and stumbled on the chop section which amazed me, I started going through all the mags and got inspired to give it a go (After my brother told me it was done on PS), I mean how hard can it be...

So With a copy of Cs2 on the family computer + dial up computer and my portable HD with Donors, I got searching for tutorials, which then I stumbled onto Digimods + many hours of saving more unique donors and self teaching.

Around 2009 is when I first made an appearance on the forums (massive thanks to CrazyRichard - Rich, Fuzl and Brian for harsh but great C&C's back in the days), fast forward to 2014 my chops are still rubbish! :S
