cathm Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 What is the best way to change the color of this diaper cover from this pink to cream or off white color? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 The very easiest method would involve changing it to pretty much the same cream colour as the fluffy rug. Would that be sufficient? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathm Posted April 28, 2019 Author Share Posted April 28, 2019 Yes, that would be great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Okey dokey. I have to go out for a while, and I'll help you out when I get back. In the meantime, please post some more white balance photos in class. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cathm Posted April 28, 2019 Author Share Posted April 28, 2019 Would love to learn how to do this, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 It's two layers: First, the Channel Mixer layer, with the "Monochrome" checkbox checked, and these values: 0, 0, +100, 0. Then add the Levels layer and clip it to the Channel Mixer layer, and enter these values: Red channel 0/1.20/213 and 53/255 Green channel 0/1.07/238 and 13/255 Blue channel 16/0.97/238 and 0/255 At this stage the whole photo will be kinda tan-coloured. Return to the Channel Mixer layer and invert the mask to black to hide it all. Then mask it on to the cover. You'll need to be very careful not to let the colour spill onto the legs. But you can let the colour spill onto the rug a little bit, since it's about the same colour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cathm Posted April 29, 2019 Author Share Posted April 29, 2019 Am I doing this correctly? I wasn't sure about this part --> Then add the Levels layer and clip it to the Channel Mixer layer, and enter these values: Red channel 0/1.20/213 and 53/255 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Yep, that looks right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathm Posted April 30, 2019 Author Share Posted April 30, 2019 Here is what I got! Thank you. What is a secret of figuring out the color recipe? Like if I want to make the diaper cover more white, what do i adjust? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 You'll learn about that in the Channel Mixer Class, but that's a little way down the road. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
