Photoshop Concept Car Makeover

Adjusting the Windows
Now we want to adjust the windows to our liking using the available lighting options in Photoshop. The choices are numerous, but I'll just outline the methods I used, and show you an example for each. This is a choose your own path tutorial - have fun with it!

  • One of the many ways you can adjust the lighting and color in Photoshop is with the Photo Filter. Use your Magic Wand tool (press W) to select the main windshield. You will likely have to add to your selection, but in the end you want the whole front windsheild selected.

  • With the windshield selected, select Image > Adjustments > Photo Filter. Below I've applied a cooling filter with a density of 50. You can fiddle with the options and see what you like best :



You may notice a ring of the color you added to the windshield around it. If you don't like this effect ( I didn't ), you can simply make a duplicate layer of your selected windshield, apply the filter, and then erase the parts you don't want shaded, much like this :



Now if want to, you can apply the same effect to the side window. You may end up with varied results because the overall lighting condition will be different depending on what you apply. I'm just leaving my front window 'tinted' for now.
