[94tegRS]

this is the first time Ive ever played with this program, read the 2 stickies about masking and color change, this is what Ive done so far, what do you think? tips on making it better would be really appreciated.

just joking, these are for real.
just color change:


tinted blue winshield/headlights, red calipers/seats and black wheels with polished lip:


calipers I kinda guessed where they were as I couldnt really see them to color them


ok, is there a way to make a new mask, I kept having to save it and reopenit after modifying one detail, it would let me lasso it up but not mask it off.

also how do you guys make CF and finally how would I have shaved the H emblem up front, tried eyedropper to select color near it but for some reason it kept being a lighter blue than should have been so I selected a blue from the wheelwell where its darker but it still didnt work too well so I left it alone.

also, I changed the cars coler with the layer->curve. and then I did another layer but didnt know I was mesing with the whole picture, just paying attention to the car and had a sick chameleon job on it but noticed everything around the car was a bit weird so got rid of that layer and didnt wanna select the whole car over again just to make a new layer on just the car for the chameleon. any easy way to remask what you already had masked for a 2nd layer?

I have a ton more questions but I already asked alot so Ill just wait to hear the answer/comments to these.

oh also how do I get it to look smooth again, edges are all pixelated and I couldnt figure it out.

They look really good, But you need to lower the saturation alot. But great job for your first time

Thats sweet.

lowering the saturation will bring back some of the highlights the red had right? I noticed I lost alot of them on the side of the car at the bodys major curve. is the saturation in the layers thing, I think I might have the project saved as well, thatas what the .psd is right, photoshopdocument, and i can still edit things or is the layer lost forever and I have to redo it. Im gonna go play some more, Im gonna do an RSX now since thats one of my other favorite hondas. I need to know how to drop the car though. and how to put different wheels on, do they have to be a pic at the same angle or can you spin the wheels a bit ? or if its close just make them a bit more elliptical so it looks like they are turned?

yep thats my pride and joy, that was one touch chop to do though, cant believe it came out so well!

[pre98zetec]

Nah, It won't bring the red back, it will just lower the brightness in the blue so it doesn't blind you.

[94tegRS]

I dont mean bring back the red, but the highlighting will show better right?

[pre98zetec]

oh, yes it will.. sorry I didn't understand the first post.

[94tegRS]

last time I had more of the orange/green/purple one and looked much more realistic but couldnt get it, this was real quick, I didnt even mask any lighting or windows.

Im gonna search a bunch and see what I can find, I might have to get this when i get home now.

and the last one for tonight, man time flies when your working on a car with this.
its really clear on my computer but I had to resize it to upload it and somehow I shrank i from too big to upload to 1/8th the maximum size but still the same viewing size and got all fuzzy

[rollercoaster]

it looks pretty nice, just take ur time with it and try to blend in all the colors so they look nice

[94tegRS]

not sure what you are trying to get me to do, what tool would I do this with.
