Our 8th tutorial on AREA 1, isolating and changing a color!

This is what we’ll be learning how to make today:

So let’s get to work!

Open your image you want to modify in Adobe Photshop. Right click on the image layer and choose Duplicate Layer and then select the original layer and Desature. (SHIFT + CTRL + U)

So now we have 2 layers: the layer above (coloured) and the original layer (black&white).
See Screenshot 1.
Select the coloured layer and add a layer mask.
See Screenshot 2.

Now, be sure that you have selected the mask not the layer and
See Screenshot 3.
choose the Eraser Tool and starting erasing the parts you want to change the color.
See Screenshot 4.

That’s it! Hope you’ll enjoy this tutorial! Please leave a comment & thanks for the visit.
