bcstudent 0 Posted August 30, 2006 Helios Blue is a lot darker than that. I don't what colour that is but I don't like it! * EDIT * Apparently, that's Star Blue. Helios Blue: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrbeige 0 Posted August 30, 2006 This any better: Much better! :lol: Cheers dude Can you smooth the front bumper and drop the front a little bit too? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted August 30, 2006 :lol: im soooo glad i got the colour wrong because that sky blue would just look plain wrong! Yeah i will have a bash at smoothing the bumber and dropping the front. I thought the front looked high but im guessing thats because its on a slight slope?

mrbeige 0 Posted August 30, 2006 :lol: im soooo glad i got the colour wrong because that sky blue would just look plain wrong! You're right there it does look poo sky blue :lol: Yeah i will have a bash at smoothing the bumber and dropping the front. I thought the front looked high but im guessing thats because its on a slight slope? It does look a little high, yes, but as I was so kindly informed last week, its partly to do with me having the wrong profile tyres on!! 215/40 R16 instead of 215/45 R16....doh! Also running Koni/HR, so it just sits level instead of slightly nose down as I would like it, that's why I need some coilovers!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil K 0 Posted August 30, 2006 herisites, good work fella - looks really good! How did you sort the reflection in the bumper? also, what are you doing to change the colour in PS? I use the program a lot but have never worked that bit out :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walesy 0 Posted August 30, 2006 that doesn't look like helios blue to me :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted August 30, 2006 herisites, good work fella - looks really good! How did you sort the reflection in the bumper? also, what are you doing to change the colour in PS? I use the program a lot but have never worked that bit out :? The reflection came all the way from america :lol: i just searched for a C with a smooth bumper to which i used ToffeeRado's, chopped it off and blended it on Mr Beige's and changed the colour. To change the colour of the car i duplicate the layer with the whole image on, then change the colour using Hue/Saturate and then chop off everything around the car and on the car thats not paintwork etc. I learnt how to photoshop from a website called Digimods (http://www.digimods.co.uk) and it tells you how to change the colour HERE Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil K 0 Posted August 30, 2006 Cheers matey! I'd just realised it was toffee's bumper - damn good effect though 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted August 30, 2006 That's looking great! but as Walesy says it isn't quite Helios Blue Try and pick this colour if you can. P.S. Bloody good skills so far dude, cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted August 30, 2006 errr...http://www.dubmodder.com...? All your problems solved! Very true, but not for the colour, which was my original request :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Walesy 0 Posted August 30, 2006 It's a difficult colour to grab, it changes in different lights. chazg60 had a helios G60 before he bought his new one, he'll probebly have a few pics if that helps? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted August 30, 2006 It is a difficult colour to get lol, thing is when 'shoppin the colour, its quite a solid colour with just the original reflections shining through so i cant quite grasp it. I will have to get more picstures of the colour and have another go! I WONT be defeated :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walesy 0 Posted August 30, 2006 I've just found a few pics of Chaz's old G60.... It might be easier to shop some borbets onto the helios car. ( Excuse the rear lights, he has no taste :lol: ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted August 30, 2006 Ahhh thats better :lol: its almost grey with a bluey purpley hint, looks quite nice actually! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walesy 0 Posted August 30, 2006 In the flesh it's a stunning colour, I think it was only used on Rado's for a year or two so it's what an ebay edvert would describe as being "RARE!!!111!!! ONEONE!!111" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
