I was wondering how you add reflections in Photoshop to say, the side of a car.
Like the car reflects over the water like in the picture:
How would you put the reflection of the car in the water like in the picture about or just the reflection of something on the side of a car?

With video games like Auto Modellista, and XIII (thirteen) the technique of cell shading is all the rage. Below are two tutorials I did not write, and one that I did write. I would like some feedback/ comments on the one that I did write. I posted up the two other ones because most of the people I talk to have either seen them, or know of those tutorials and have been using them as a guide. My way is not exactly cell shading just because I have been doing it so long that I have continually gotten more and more advanced until they look like airbrushed pictures. Either way, here are the tutorials.
View 1 Replies View RelatedOk I am interested in changing the colors of cars. I.E. I have a 57 Chevy that I am not sure what color I want to paint and would like to use photoshop to help me decide. The only thing I can do is paint it with a flat color I would like to change it right from the actually pic. I can change the hue/ saturation but that also changes the background. Am I supposed to create a layer for the car itself? It seems that when I do that it doesn't do the same color for all of the body. The car right now has different color paint in the jpeg I am using. I could understand if it was just one color that would be easy but I can't seem to do it for multipule colors. But I have seen where guys that have the same color for one particuliar thing be changed for all.

Ok lets start!
Once you have chopped you car and your happy with the overall look of the car its time to move to the paint!
1.) make sure your layers are all flatend
2.) Now go to the layers and right click the backround and go down to "duplicate layer..." and click it and then press ok and repeat this about 5 times so you have 5 "backround layers"
3.) once you have done that select the very top layer
4.)Now you have selected the very top layer go to Image/ adjust/ hue saturation then up the verry top of the box that opens click the scrol thing. and becuase the car im doing is blue i select "blues", then using the sliders select a colour that looks real and not over saturated. Then once you are happy with the colour click OK.
5.)Now that your happy with the coluor select the brush tool and make it about 100 pixels (but depends on the size of the picture you are working on) Then turn down the "flow" of the brush like shown below.
Now still on the very top layer rub the parts of the picture you DONT want in the colour you have selected
6.) Once you are happy select the layer down from the one you were just working on it will be most likely be called "backround copy 4"
7.)Now repeat what you have go to Image/adjust/ hue saturation and select blues again and use the sliders until you are happy with the colour and repeat this until your happy with the colours! you should get somthing like this: ....
This was my very first photoshop project that i did about 5 or 6 months ago... My question in general though is, whats the best way to do a color change? i usually just select the entire body, and change the color balance, but i know there is a better way to make it look more realistic...
how would you do the chameleon paint smoothly? Where on different curves of the car it appears a different color
I was out taking pics today and got one of a beautiful shelby cobra.
It's a still shot and I'm planning to make it look like it's in motion(panning effect, with blurred background).
I though it would look good with racing numbers and logos.
Does anyone no how to put a flat logo on a curved or contoured surface(make it look like it was really painted on the car)?
And would there be any copyright or trademark problem doing this?
II can't get down is color changing and wheel chops. I can do both but they dont look very good. So, I was wondering if anyone could post their own tutorial per say, on how you guys select and then what you do to get the colors just right and looking good, and the same for wheel chops if you would.
Im specifically trying to go from a darker color. Like red or black to a brighter color like yellow or orange.
I woudl like to delete the cars but put at bottom the colour of the road.

What is the best way ?
I Have this nice photo of the eye close up and I am attempting to show a reflection in it.
how to on this with some examples of the results.
I really like the look of graphic reflections I just don't know how to make them look good. I usually make a copy of the graphic to be relected and flip it upside down and position it correctly. At this point I don't know ho to proceed. It seems that the reflection should go from mostly opaque to fully transparent. How do you do that in Photoshop?

Has anyone had to do a reflection in an eye? Or does anyone know where I can get a tutorial to learn how to do this?
I basically want to take 2 images, one a close-up of an eye the other a logo. Then I want to make it look as if the logo is reflected in the eye.
I can't make 3d reflections to show in Photoshop. Here are the steps:
Create a 3d scene with white text standing vertically on a black rectangle (two meshes on one 3d layer).In the text mesh properties, set Reflections to 50 (tried 100, too). Set render settings to custom and ensure Reflections are checked.Set render quality to either Raytraced draft or final - both look the same. The renderer is working because I see a blue rectangle running across the screen. But when it stops, there are no reflections.

I want to create a realistic reflection on a photo just like the one attached.
I have a picture that was taken on a very cloudy day through the window of a single engine aircraft. There is a considerable amont of glass reflection throughout the photograph which I would like to remove. Most of the reflection is seen in the clouds but there is also a condiderable amount in the water. Since the backround is mostly gray due to the weather the reflection shows up as a light grey to white against the grey. Could you tell me the best way to remove it? Is there a plug-in that will accomplish this quickly or must it be done through some other means?

I thought maybe mixing with yellow-green could eliminate them. Actually I only need to decrease their saturation and thus become like other whitish reflections..

View 2 Replies View RelatedI wanted to create some object where i could demonstrate he blur, array and other functions inside 3ds Max and i choose for that a simple box/sphere array. The problem iam facing are the reflections on the box model, they are looking too flat comparing to the sphere. Iam using arch&design materials and a hdr map inside environment (spherical) for reflections and the materials are the same on the box and sphere model, still the reflections are nice on the sphere, flat and ugly on the box

I am working on a cockpit interior for a spaceship and I am getting an odd render glitch both in my work viewport and in the renderer.
This mesh was created in Rhino 4 and imported via .obj. When it was initially imported it displayed perfectly but after, UVW unwrapping each quad is rendered as if it was made up of two triangles, and each triangle appears rounded.
Even stranger, if I turn on edged faces in my viewport it displays correctly again.
I am completely new to 3ds max for anything other than lighting so I'm sure that there is a simple (or complicated) explanation.
