Hello. Has anyone volunteered to do photoshop requests for forum members? I know that there are a couple of guys on Jeepforum doing this and they pretty much have it covered over there. Is there someone here doing requests? If not, let this be the start of a photoshop request thread...

Post a pic of your Jeep along with what you would like to see done to it, i.e. blacked out rims, different color, etc.

Guideline: The results that I can get for you depend largely on the quality of the pic you post: cell phone pics are pretty much worthless. If the Jeep takes up most of the frame (that is, it is not a dot in the picture) and the photo is clear it will enable better results.

Example: Willys MB transformation of a Wrangler TJ



I await your request. :whistling:

TJe0454, here you go:



I hope I understood you right about the hood. If not it is an easy fix to do the entire hood in red.





I thought I would try one more thing:



If you do this transformation please send pics, I would love to see the final product. I would definitely do the grille in red.

Let me know if there is anything else I can do for you.

YJ95Wrangler, here is your Jeep with tinted windows! I have a white Jeep with tinted windows myself. I can do the rims, but it would work a lot better if I had a pic taken perpendicular to the side of the Jeep as I could not find a picture of the rims online at a close-enough angle to look right when placed in the picture. If you send me a pic taken at a right angle to the side of the Jeep I can get it to you with your rims.



A side note for fellow Photoshopers, this picture is good example of something to watch for that I have noticed about window tinting: You are actually tinting 5 windows in this picture, though it may first seem like 2. The reason for this is that since you can see the back and passenger-side windows through the driver-side windows, there would be a double layer of tint visible to the eye in real life. In this pic I selected the back window and the passenger-side windows for a second layer of tint. I think it is more realistic. I thought that might be good food for thought for fellow Photoshop people since a Jeep is really just a glass box with thick framing around each pane.

Hey guys. I just found this thread and to be honest I don't go on this forums as much as I do some of the others but I have my degree in Digital Art and Design and have worked in the creative industry for a bit. I have about 10 years of Photoshop experience and worked for a advertising agency, creating photorealistic renderings. Please don't hesitate to contact me

Bryce, I think you were actually responding to the offer for information from the man with the professional experience who posted on the thread, but were referring to my pics so I will answer as far as how I maintain the gloss of paint and glass.

In the pics you see above I started by selecting which parts of the vehicle I wanted to alter the color of and then adjusting the hue, saturation, and lightness/darkness of the selection. The key to maintaining the natural reflectiveness of materials in doing so is selecting the option to "colorize". There are other ways of changing the color and of maintaining the naturalness of the photo, just depends on what the objective is. For what I have described here, see Image, Adjustments, Hue/Saturation. Beyond that, in these pics there is some alteration of color curves, texturizing where matte was requested, blending where pixel bleed has occured, etc. Happy photoshopping.

I got one. I have had photoshop for a few months and have wondered how you do this that you keep the reflections (in the windows for te tint) and the right glare when you change paint colors

Thanks

Bryce

Coffeeman.. you are simply amazing. I'd like to be able to see an entire gallery of your work. I'm rebuilding my YJ and have been hard pressed to find a collection of pictures involving custom paint. I've never seen art like this.

You guys do nice work! I like to play around in Paint Shop Pro (can't stand Photoshop...plus it's too expensive when I'm putting forth an effort into keeping this computer somewhat legal...lol)...but I'm not quite that good!

Thanks. The possibilities are endless. Photoshop is primarily used for photo correction and manipulation but it can be used to create Gif animations, digital painting, and even complete websites. I would say I'm 100% proficient in adobe illustrator and even though I've been using photoshop for about 10 years there are areas that i haven't explored. Some reasons are because some features are obsolete and other reason are just because I've never had a reason to. Some ppl use paint pro or gimp but i like photoshop over those anyway but the end result is really what matters. o each their own.
