Photoshop wheels & rack

[DaveB]

Here's my first go, hard to get right with the source lighting in the rack picture. I think you can correct for this in a proper version of Photoshop.

Rack looks bronze
I like the way you left out the slats at the front
not bad for an amateur

Not with a full roof rack on it surely?

No just some roof bars for light things. Maybe I could use the roof rack if I up-rate the pistons
Definitely will be a serious consideration for us if available

Sans roof rack, roof closed.

Thank you That’s now saved to my Grenadier folder.

Shopkeep….. can you do a Trialmaster in the gulf racing colours, 18’ Ralliart wheels, a 2” lift, and a Labrador bonnet mascot please

Some great work mate. The Donny grey was mine (same as DaveB) so I am happy already. I would love to fast forward 18 months and see all the after market kit that is going to come out for these vehicles. The is just a glimpse of what people on here will end up owning I am sure.

@Shopkeep really nice artwork. Congrat to these results! Seeing all these pictures you published in short time - and partly even bespoke on request - I struggle with your claim of being an amateur… Your on track to become the photoshopper of this forum; similar a @DCPU is the photographic resource and memory or @emax the one recommending cool must have tools .

I think DCPU is either a librarian or was one in a previous life. He alway manages to pull info or a photo from somewhere in his records, that clears up an issue or answers a question.

Wait until we all own one of these vehicles. He will have to step up his game. When someone is asking for the aux battery wiring diagram on a 2023 commercial !!

I just know he will come up with the goods from somewhere.

I explained in another thread that DCPU is the abbreviation of Data Control Pictorial Unit...Happy motoring

I don't understand why the mounting bracket on the Rhino rack has to be so huge.

For the 400-odd kg of humanity that might be shifting around up there in a RTT?
Overengineering is another explanation. Not a bad thing.

Rhino Rack normally de-rate their racks by up to 50% for off road use.
Justin told me that he didn't think this one was de-rated.
Possibly (total guess) Ineos wouldn't accept a de-rated rack so Rhino created those huge mounting brackets.
The platform looks standard

On a vehicle with 150KG roof rating using a RR Pioneer platform this is their calculations

I for example, urgently need my red Fieldmaster with 17“ alloys and the shortened rack you designed

And I want one with 30 MPG. You can leave the roofrack out.

I don't understand why the mounting bracket on the Rhino rack has to be so huge.

Perhaps for acoustic reasons? Less turbulence?

Possibly
The large surface area of the brackets must surely produce lift if they are on as much of an angle as it looks.
The Pioneer rack platform in it's largest form is 400mm narrower than the Grenadier roof, so unless they have created a wider one they need to come in by 200mm on each side
It also renders those handles useless.
You wouldn't have much skin left on your knuckles if you reached under the metal to grab them
