Default Anyone Good With Photoshop To Change Car Colors etc ?

Looking to find someone that can change color on cars and other car parts. I can send you photo's of my Cobra. One would be to have my wheel's black, but keep the spinner polished.

With our sprint car, people are painting the wheel's black, wanting to "black out, or murder out''. It's kinda warming up to the look,

Like this one. Pretty color, but also looks nasty with all the black.

You can download a free program called Photoscape that will let you do most of Photoshop’s capabilities. However, changing complex shapes with shading like a Cobra will be very difficult.

FUNFER2 -- Using Photoshop, use the Selective Color tool on a new layer. Just go to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Selective Color. For that picture, just choose "Reds" as the color and then use the sliders CMYB to mimic your new color -- this took less than 30 seconds. Of course, the more effort you put in the better it will look. You can do it if you try... but if you don't try, then you'll never do it.

I used Photoshop and just put it on a server to post the pic. All I did was change the red to gold. Obviously you can pick any color under the rainbow.

Yes, a server. Like PhotoBucket, etc. Here's a list of the ten best photo sharing sites: https://www.tomsguide.com/us/picture...phy-sites.html But the point is, you can do it with PS, it's easy, you don't need to have someone do it for you. Do not succumb to learned helplessness.

Please change the wheels to black and the lug nut polished with the orange Cobra. Then I'd want to learn how. Are any free ?

Nope, that would enable your learned helplessness.

You can do this to same effect on Forza 5 on X Box. It’s a truly excellent tool and has full rotation. The 427 Cobra is a very accurate model. You can even check out the dashboard in 3D.

Ask your "nef" to download a copy of PS off a torrent then register it with a keygen. He'll know just what to do.

Better yet, he can buy a "Student License" for PS for next to nothing. Or, you can even get a free trial here: https://www.adobe.com/downloads.html

EDIT -- Yep, he can get the "Creative Cloud" for less than ten bucks a month -- that's Photoshop/Lightroom/Etc. Click here: https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/buy/students.html That's really an offer you can't refuse.
