Title: Photoshop - Help :)
Post by: Shadowjens on July 14, 2012, 03:20:27 PM
Heya Everyone.

I've tried to figure out how to use gimp and such, but I simply can't figure it out. Even with tutorials I fail!

So, therefore I come here, with the hope that someone might be able to help me with some color schemes.

I were thinking about having the frame, headlight, tachometer, headlight holders and mirrors in white, and all plastic and the tank in black. Or perhaps the tank in the original color and the plastic in black.

Or perhaps just how the frame would look in white.

If anyone could help me with this, then it would be greatly appreciated :) 

Yours faithfully - Shadowjens from Denmark

Really quick job, best I could do without really going overboard. Turning the headlight and mirror white would be a real job and would look really unreal. The frame is washed out as it is, but hope this helps.

Not super amazing, but I was bored and wanted to see if I could do it.
Hard to go from black/dark color to white..but I tried gives you a decent idea of what it'd look like white with a black frame.

No problem.. I'm more of a fan of black with white accents. When I get to painting my bike it'll be black with red or white accents. I like white but it gets dirty too fast :P

I agree with AFX. I have never liked white bikes, but the white frame looks pretty good. The white on black isn't bad, just too bright IMO.
