Can somebody make the rear Z badge metalitic red.
Thank you

 

is this what u mean?

 

Thanks for trying VQ
I'm trying to see how it would look with the red, like on the Protege5 badge

 

oooo, ill see what i can do. ill have it by friday.

 

Here ya go.

 

a little sooner than Friday...

 

That's pretty cool, thanks guys

 

I haven't photoshopped anything in a while, so I couldn't resist, even though there's some nice ones already up...

 

tbcz, how did you adjust the color? You made a selection then adjusted the channels? I used layerin and opacity to make mine.. but I lost detail.

 

could you guys make only the three square dots in the "z" red? i think that would look rilly good.

 

Yup. Pretty much any color work I do in Photoshop is by making a selection, and then adjusting the color using these tools: color balance, brightness/contrast, hue/saturation, channel mixer, curves and levels. Like you noticed, the whole trick is to not lose detail. Easier said than done.

 

here's some silver dots in a red z

 

And the winner is: tbcz! Ding ding ding!

Runner up: subw00er, with an entry a little better around the edges, but minus the metallic detail from the original.
