Hi guys  ;D

Here it is full of skilled people to photoshop, im going crazy to create the base color of this bike:

You could help try to get a result as close as possible?

My problem is recreating this strange "green dark sea", for the metallic effect i have already thought about how to create it, but without the base is pretty useless  :'(

Try
Colour: #4e8f93
Add:
Grain Texture Intensity 16, Contrast 45 regular

You will need to adjust Intensity and Contrast dependant upon your scale to give it metallic effect.

See what you think m8  ;D

I tried, the problem is always the color does not match  >:(


Napalm Nick

doesn't look like you have the grain metallic in that?

Hmmm I try something else too hang on

Have you tried colour-picking the colour you want from the actual photo itself? Just be mindful that from a real photo the colour you want will vary greatly depending on were you position your colour-picker, so you may want to try this several times from different locations to get the correct shade you want. This should give you your base green type colour your looking for.

I tried several times, but the result is always too light blue  ???


I want to throw the laptop out the window  ;D

Tricky innit

In effect it is difficult to get the color is too light

Its do-able if you don't crack it I will have another go before Sunday if you want me too but now I must grab some practice  :)

Have you tried using exposure to tone down the lightness? Might give you the shade you want? Worth a try.  ;)

Green is 3c8d8e
Yellow is f0ec4d

These are the excact colors of the original picture.
The green looks spot on, the yellow could be a bit brighter imo, so you`ll have to choose something that suits your taste.
