Dear All,

This website is more complete and interesting? :} (well, quite a long time I haven?t posted anything here )

I have a question and would be very grateful if anybody could share their ideas here.

I would like to change silver to be a gold (with magic of photoshop, I don?t need to go to the gold shop )

I enclose here two images. Original and after coloring. For the coloring, after setting the color, I change Normal mode to Hard Light mode. (I found the technique from tutorial in internet)

I am not satisfy with the result, since it looks fake (not that smooth). Is there any other way to smoothen the colorization of the image??

Thank you in advance [righton]

The reason it seems fake is probably due to the highlight on the curve on the upper part of the shape/pendant that is just too yellow. I could very well be wrong with that - you be the judge.

Created one by copying the pendant to a new layer, changing the colorization with the Hue/Saturation (Ctrl/Command + U). Then simply erased the colorized area above the diamond. Set this layer to "Color" blending mode.

Wow Thanks for the quick respond 8))

I tried it and it works. Previously it was too yellow (24 Gold Carat won't be that yellow too)

With a little touch, it's much better now.

Thank you so much!!
