Can someone please help me do a photochop of my car with the AME's center changed to gloss black, gold, and gunmetal ? :)

It would really help me a bunch as i have no clue.... if you're local i'll ship a case of beer to your front door :lol:

what do you mean by "center"? the spokes?

I think he means the wheel center caps. I dunno :dunno:

center meaning the spokes :) sorry i wasnt clear enough..

gloss black, gold, and gunmetal with a polished lip

I think a gun metal center w/ polished lip and a volk center cap would make it look sexier...you should photoshop that on your car :)

Hope this will help. Gloss black is pretty hard to do.

OMFG that looks fantastic!

MultiSync....i have been messing with Photoshop a lot recently and was wondering if you could share your secret of how you did that so nicely and clean. I was messing around with Replace Color which looked horrible on the wheels and messing with the hue/saturation but began losing the lighting effects, which you still have on the wheel.

ucleadguitar, the way that i did this was a hue/saturation adjustment layer with settings of -100 saturation and -86 lightness. used a layer mask so only the wheels were affected by the adjustment layer, and then changed the blending mode of the adjustment layer to hardlight.

following along, your layer pallet should look like this...

OMG that looks wicked................. :Eyecrazy: Thanks!

Could you do one up just like that with gold please? :angel:

i officially dub you the Master of Photoshop :)

Thanks alot i really appreciate it!

haha...w00t. :)

That really is a great job. I am impressed.

ucleadguitar,

To make the gold wheel, I changed the Hue to a more yellowish color, boosted the Contrast, and then used Levels to get the desired look. The trick is to adjust the upper and mid level sliders. To get the gun metal wheel, I lowered the Saturation and then used Levels.

A couple of other tricks... first use the Ellipse to make a rough selection of the wheel. Then turn off the dancing ants (View > Show > Selection Edges). This will make it easier to make your image adjustments so that they look more realistic. Deselect and then use the Eraser with the "Erase to History" option. This is the easier way to clean up the edges and restore the brake rotors.
