You don`t see too many "oldies" in here so there`s something differnt for you guys. I only have photoshop 5.0 so the color doesn`t look too good but I`m quite happy with the result.

better then most of mine...But i think you may need to turn your opacity down a bit next time

eehh...not bad but like lady said turn the opacity down, that color looks too fake, there no shadows or body on the car.

first: I can`t turn the opacity down cos I allready flatened the image.
second: I don`t really want to turn it down cos the colour i want would disapier entirely.
solution: I fixed it a litle with airbrush and I think it`s better now.
What do you think?

Well, one thing I always do when I'm working on a chop is save the work as a .PSD before flattening, that way, if I want to make changes to one of the layers, I can do so easily.
Also, instead of turning down the opacity, use the "hue/saturation" image adjustment instead of air-brushing or whatever it was that you did to change the color, making sure it's set on "colorize", and it will give the coloring a much more realistic appearance...

:banghead: saving is allways a good idea but I ques I was just too lazy.
Thanks for the tip about that hue/saturation thingy. But even that doesn`t help me with that kadett because the original car is so "uncolored".

Yeah, I didn't take that into account... What I would do in a situation like that is use the brightness/contrast image adjustment to make the body darker, maybe turn down the contrast a bit. Then use the "hue/saturation" set on colorize.
