If you use Adobe Photoshop or another graphic software that eats *.psd files I can link you to this: http://www.lfs-gear.com/kitz.html
There is a shadow layer included. All you got to do is move it to the top and set the layer property to "multiply".
well, I dont know where your problem is. Take some reference pictues of the Prost and adjust the colour of the skin till it matches with the original. And please dont use full-value RGB colors.They'll give give your skins a comic style, which is I suppose not the thing you want.
