Techniques

When you use ColorSwap The application produced by plexityHide.com that will help you easily change colors to choosen objects in a picture. you first produce Image parts. Image parts can be constructed by the Fill tool  and image parts can be changed with the Brush and Erase tool.

 

When you have a couple of image parts that you want to group you do this with the Join tool.

 

In any image part An Image that you have produced with the Fill tool and that you can change the channels of the HSV color space in. you can change the color aspects by the Change color tool.

 

You never change the existing pixels in ColorSwap, you "only" effect the Hue The color without respect to saturation and lightness , saturation The amount of white mixed in to the color and value channels of the HSV-color-space.

 

As you can see above the Erase tool only removes information from the Image part, not from the original image. Erase actually restores the color of the car to the original red in this case.

 

The Brush tool adds areas to an Image part. Areas that will be color swapped by ColorSwap. Notice that details, shadows and lightning are kept intact below.

 

The most powerful way to build an image part is with the Fill tool.

The Fill tool The tool that you will use to isloate objects in your picturestarts at a point given by you, and acts on these settings:

Producing this result:

 

You should not always expect the Fill tool to isolate the object in one stroke, use it many times and use the Join tool to build up the object as you define it .
