Today we'll talk about a quick easy Photoshop tutorial. This is a very simple tutorial that goes over how to change the color of a car. We'll be using the color replace tool and the paint brush tool. We have a Chevy Camaro that is yellow and we want to change it to a different color. So let's get it started.
Using Replace Color
First thing first we'll open a picture of a car. I chose the Chevy Camaro. Once we have it open lets click on Image, then Adjustments then Replace Color.
With the tool open hold the shift key down on your keyboard and click on all of the red on the vehicle. It's important to get the highs and the lows of the red on the car. We are sampling the colors that we will soon replace. Now lets click on on the result color. What we are going to select now is a new color that we want to replace our sampled colors with. The great thing about this tool is that it will take all of the highs and lows that we just sampled and replace them with their equals with our new color. We hit ok then we are done. Pretty easy huh? Let's take a look at another way.
Paint Brush Tool
This next way is even easier. All you do is select the paint brush tool then change the mode from Normal to Color. Give it a try, try painting a section of the car as you normally would. What you will find is that Photoshop will color the car but not totally over write it as it would if the mode was normal. You can see its actually very easy to change the color of pretty much anything with Photoshop! This example was really basic but hopefully it gives you insight on how easy it is to use Photoshop to get some really cool results.
