photoshop help needed for new Indian Springfield

Hey guys,

Can someone do me a huge favor.

I would like the Chrome parts on this bike photo shopped black..

not looking for anything perfect just something to give me an idea what this would look like blacked out... you can leave the engine chrome (for now )


Thinking about picking this up on Friday.. think it will compliment my M4 quite well.

Thanks in advance.

I only use Lightroom so Photoshop experts can speak up, but you are limited on what you can do unless you have a RAW file. Even then would be a time consuming edit to prevent altering overall picture quality.

Eh, no. You don't need the raw file and you are not limited at all.

I don't want to spend more than 2 min masking this so its an ugly job but you wanted that.

^ nice job!

I like the chrome, OP, not that my opinion really matters that much.

Thanks Metric

Just what I needed!!

gave you rep..

very cool for you to take the time to do this.. even if it was just 2 min.

helps a great deal..

yeah some chrome actually looks good... (did i just say that) considering I blacked out all chrome on my M4...

But in all seriousness a little isn't bad.. but chrome is a bitch to keep polished up and clean too..

Im just a black out fan.... within reason.. some blacked out stuff is a bit over the top..

I think black forks, light housing, handle bars and front fender look pretty bad ass.

Everything else leave it chrome.

Might look nice in brushed stainless, and I'd leave the exhausts alone. Use Blackout to hide the busy bits like footpegs, but the exhaust gives it a nice accent line that flows nicely.

Black it out, looks great.

Makes the motor stand out...just the perfect touch.

You could even get away with leaving the exhaust chrome and it would still look supurb!
