Part 2. This is the most wanted technique I own that people doesn't really master. Beware, it's very advanced & very addicting.

Here the car I will begin to shop. This technique is quite advanced & it easily put the other shops to shame!

Here the pic I will use as a texture on the car. Seem impossible huh?

 

[Mr Deap]

First, place the picture at the angle of the body. Use the polygon lasso to change the angle of the pic(like cutting through the center of the pic if you want)

 

[Mr Deap]

Here the procedur to make it look real

-First, duplicate the main body layer & play with Image->"level" & "Hue & Saturation" & do that to the others layer too.

-Second, use CTRL+"left click on the mouse" on the lady's pic. It should select around the lady.

-Third, Select->"select inverse" & Edit->"cut" on the duplicate body layer

-Fouth, duplicate the main body layer again

-Fifth, do Select->"color range"(put it about to 130) & start with the lightest color

-Sixth, Third, Select->"select inverse" & Edit->"cut" on the second duplicate body layer

-Seventh, do all the color that the pic has & repeat that lightest to the darkest color. Adjust the level & color so it can look more real.

-Eight, Don't forget to remove the lady layer...

Note, this method can be very frustrating in a competition...

With this method, you can easily end up over 100 layers, but the car look way more real. With that, you can do nice racing cars.

Here a bigger view of the car with that decale.
