sorry to whore, but a couple of you changed teh color of the car completely. STI and dubbs became green and yellow. I got blue, but thats cuz I inverted it. How can you change teh color completely but still keep the shading?

[STiSchucky]

lasso the body, make it a separate layer, and then fuck around with the shading settings. if your using MS paint,good luck heh.

Lasso sucks.. copy the layer and mask what you don't want changed (ie: headlights/background/windows/trim, or what you don't want paitned on the body). Add in a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer and attach it to the layer for the new color, and then re-open the hue/saturation and tweak the hue. Tis how I've always done it.. probalby not the best way, but it works.

damn. ive tried it on a couple different cars now and i think my way is by far the most ghetto. i just made a couple new layers, used a brush to paint over whatever it was i wanted painted, then changed the opacity to make the different parts match. lowering the opacity at least lets the shading come through fairly well.

I disagree. Photoshop is all about selection. You can never use Photoshop to its fullest w/o being good at selection.

Layer mask's work ok, but there are better ways then layer masks.

I Lasso the body and parts I want and add and subract from my selection untill I get what I want. Then I make a 1 pixel feather to make it a little soft and to get rid of the "Cut" Look. After that I save my selection so I do not have to re-select.

After that I get every thing on the layers I want and start my changing.

I will do a wright up on color change later and I will sticky it.

Ok so I get how to workt the lasso an what not , but is there an easier way to lasso the whole body instead of following the lasso all the way around the car and all the curves??

[hondagirl17]

oh.. I think I figured it out.. do u use the magnetic lasso tool?

It all depends on what your trying to grab in what picture. I use the stright line lasso tool most of the time.

[hondagirl17]

ok.. well i've got that much figured out now.. how do u bring in images from other sources? Like rims and wings and what not?
