How to colorize white or black?

Postby rax100 on Sat Apr 11, 2009 5:45 pm

My question is, how to colorize images (for example cars,motorbikes, etc) with white color or black color?
I can make perfect looking images with other colors, besides these 2..
With white, it looks like its been edited in Paint - same goes for black too..

I don't understand what is really your problem, there shouldn't any difference just because you're using one color or the other.
What I know is that absolute black and absolute white seldom occur naturally in one image. Maybe that's your problem.
Can you post an example?

You are trying to paint a darker image with a white the problem you are going to have is black and white both reflect light very differantly and as reflected light is how we see things its the problem i dont think it looks to bad and i cant see you making it any better

No the problem is the dark color on the bike that you have coverd with white reflects light differant than it would if it it was really white but a darker background may make it look better
