This is my rendition, done in PS for "Creating Silver Light" thread that was looking for some solutions, so I thought I would try my hand at it, this is painted in RGB with equal amounts of grey across the entire image, which was what was in that thread upon analyzing that first image. I have intentionally added texture, to show the effect on the smooth portions (smudged) and the textured portions as well. It was fun doing this.

Original Image is here:

The Silver Painted Image including eyes is here:

this is a great tut on how to do step three, i got confused and used the search engine and found this:
http://www.adobe.com/digitalimag/pdfs/phs8bwconversion.pdf#search='how%20to%20copy%20channels%20into%20layer%20palette'

shows you exactly how to copy a channel in detail

Great job on the tutorial, but its not really the look I had in mind when I started the original thread. Its not easy to describe what Im looking for. This is not in anyway a dislike of your tutorial , but not what I had in mind when I used the term silverlight.
