Re: how to preserve details
You normally do these things in layers. Otherwise how would you separate the appropriate data for the shader stack? It's a little strange that this would represent one big "diffuse" channel. You can magic wand the white parts or make a selection by color. It may create some aliasing problems. Overall it's typical to always keep these things in layers if they are to be edited. When you originally opened this thing, did you see any message giving an indication that the layer structure could not be read? I'm assuming you have more than a jpeg available. -

Re: how to preserve details
I thought you were referring to the white portions, which don't have any real detail. For the burnt out portions that are kind of a whitish to orange you'll probably have to repaint them. For the other parts how are you making your color adjustments? What kind of adjustment layers were you using? I need more information than that you're losing details. Tell me everything. If I just wanted to change colors, I would probably do it via channel mixer. It has a bit of a learning curve. I figured the white portions were probably specular passes with bits masked off. If that is the case you can't do much without the layers. If it's just flattening a spec pass onto the rest, that will be a complete mess. If none of this makes sense, you may want to start with learning the basics of 3d texture painting.Comment

Re: how to preserve details
If it is only the white that you wish to alter/remove you can use the Blend If approach to rid the white.
Then with a layer below that you can add whatever color/hue you wish.Comment

Hi everyone,
I watched Ctein's great webinar on Saturday, and since then have been reading through tons of posts here and learning a lot. I was really inspired by the show, and really hope to get a lot more proficient at retouching.

I'm not new to computers or the internet, but I am a complete novice at using Photoshop 6. I'm a contractor and I'm trying to find a way to show people what their house would look like after changing some colors for example their siding or their shutters. I thought it should be a relatively simple thing...07-19-2002, 06:15 AM

I came across this images online and more and more often i do see this kind of style in regards of skintones, saturation, shine in fashion shots.
Does anyone have an idea how this can be achieved? In particular the look of the skin?
Big thanks already!!...04-08-2012, 11:42 PM -

It needs to look "white washed" , painted with a semi transparent paint that has faded unevenly.
I've tried the color replacement tool but the bricks just looks gray.
Any ideas would be appreciated....06-19-2013, 08:06 PM
