can someone do my truck making it hugger orange with a white top cab and if not too much trouble white in the middle too...Steve
i have photoshop 7 but have yet to figure out how to do all this yet,ny inside is done in the color i plan on using

Nevermind, I give up. It just looked like an orange blob. I havent masterd the color change yet. Maybe I'll keep trying. Lol, dont hold your breath though.

heres what i want to see it like but orange and white also just all hugger orange would be good too...Thanks

I like this color combo better :D

How about blue?

Here is the hugger orange. Turned out kinda red though.

Whats the trick? How do you do that?

It should be more like this (http://www.redlineautosports.com/69x55camaro/) though.

yeah tell some of us rookies who have the program but dont know how to use it

Well I don't have photoshop. I use gimp, which is a free software
package.

The techniques I use differ depending on the source image. With this
image being grey, I created a layer of color to overlay on top of the
image to just add color to the below shadows and highlights. There are
different modes to choose from when creating layers. I used three
layers of the true hugger orange color in overlay mode and two layers
of hugger_orange set to hue mode. I played with the transparencies
until it was close. Some images you can just rotate the colors which
shifts the color base to a new color.

The really hard part is making the surface shiny. Which I can't do very
well. You really need to have reflections and shadows to really show
the reflectiveness of the surface.

not some of my better work, but what do you want for 3 min.

If you compare this image with the one I created, you can see how the reflections and hightlights create the illusion of a shiny metal.

Here is a sample of hugger orange if anyone wants it. Orange is definetly a hard color to get from grey.

You know I was gonna go a nice metallic purple for my 69 once I paint it but seeing that last one done with the hugger orange and white roof and center. Damn that looks sweet. I was thinking of trying to keep with a factory color and style. This may just convince me a bit more.

Iam starting to use photoshop to play with pictures, but I have always used Macromedia Fireworks, but I was not playing with real pics mostly logos and stuff for web sites.

I guess I will have to take some spare time to figure out the paint thing. I am guessing that you are just getting the outlines of the image first, once you have that it is easy to create layers and do what you want with them.

well that lesson helped out heres a new shot i made

Those are 20's on there? I have a set of those wheels, in 17, and they don't look much smaller than that...

here is a quick orange for ya
