Colourization. Options

[*Retro_Love*]

Ok I am making a colourization right now but I am having some trouble. I can't seem to make the skin the right color. It always turns out orange. I am using PSP 9. Whats the numbers for Hue and Saturation on the skin?

[*Libertie*]

I don't really use a set color for skin every time. I spent some time making a skin palette for photoshop once that has good skin colors, and I only use it very rarely because it always ends up being different for every picture I do. So just rely on your best judgment and keep practicing.

edit// But if your color is too orange, try turning down the saturation.

Hmm...when I tone it down it ends up turning sort of a greenish/grayish color.

Are you setting the blending option to "Color"?

If not it can make a freaky sickish hue of skin.

Oops
hahah Thanks Kristinaa.
Oh yes one more question. How about lips? Just the regular color. No lipstick. Whats the numbers? :)

[hi-C]

^ Well if they're just regular, you don't have to colour them, right? I may not be understanding the question.

Well its a colourization. The Image is black and white. I can't really seem to find the pinkish color lips are :\

Edit// Ok nvm about the regular lip color.
I just need a color that would match the eyeshadow.

^ Thats the color of the eyeshadow. Any ideas?

That is a lip color pallette that I use for vexeling, try those maybe?

Edit:



That's a gradient of the 2 colors I found when I blew that picture up to 1200%

So, eyedropper it and find a suitable colour?

[*Retro_Love*]

mmm.
Thanks I could use those for the next image I am going to colorize. Thank you :D

Edit// OoO Thanks Kristinaa. I will post my image after its done :D

[technicolour]

^ idk? I dont know what picture you're doing, nor the color scheme you have in mind.


I'm quite eager to see it. :D
