Believe it or not, Jasc PaintShop Pro v7.0 for most of the work. PaintShop Pro v5.0 for the text graphics. And GIMP 2.0 for the elimination effects. All on a Windows machine. Sorry man, not an Apple fan.

Still learning GIMP. Haven't seen it since v1.0. The new version has a wealth of features, although the controls are kind of overwhelming and scattered.

I've been using PaintShop for like a decade. You go with what you know. You know?

That's kind of funny!

While I did the best I could with the images I could gather together, I have to admit that the 5th gen and 3rd gen are the only two that look spot-on perfect to me. The others have an angle that is off just a few degrees on the vertical axis either up too high (6th and 4th) or down too low (7th). Added to the confusion are the tires underneath, which were cloned off the 5th gen. The tires create a continuity that is in conflict with the vertical axis perspective. It's an obsessive observation, but that's OK because it was my work after-all.

Anyway, if you're thinking something isn't quite right, that explanation probably makes sense to you.

And in the final analysis... good enough, IMO.
