Hi there - I would really appreciate your help!!
I know that the colour replacement tool is dependent on the brightness and colour of the source, but I really need to change a large portion of the cream building on this image to a darkish green colour. As expected, the green I pick comes out much lighter when using the colour replacement tool. It is only for a rough mock-up so it doesn't have to be perfect, but I need to give my director an idea of what paint choices to make...
Any tips would be much appreciated!
Thanks a lot,
Misty x

Hiya, select t the area you want to be green, you can use an array of selection tools for this but I prefer to use the quick selection tool, pen tool or magnetic lasso tool maybe, once you've got all the areas covered, you need to create new fill or adjustment layer, choose solid colour, choose the green you would like to use, change the layer blending modde to Overlay and then fudge around with the colour til it's right :)
