First off!!!! I'd like to request this thread get moved to the lounge, as I can't post there. Now then, I just started getting back into Photoshop and figured it would be a fun on/off topic thread to do some "paint" requests for fun. So find me some pictures to touch up
. Here's my first one. An iridescent chrome 2006 RX-8.![Name: Xpi0eLy.jpg

Do you want titanium, or an iridescent of a darker color? Iridescent will give that rainbow like effect.

that wheel does have an irredecent effect lol i guess start with chrome painted/wrapped rx8 then apply irredecence that would be the only legit way to replicate a titanium look as silver is to flat. its close to what your first post looks like but maybe try to make it look more realistic i guess? idk
if its too hard its watevs you asked for a challenge i presented one. im more intresed in a laguna seca blue rx8

I'm not a pro with Photoshop, I took a couple of classes for it back in college and have been working with it for fun since long before that. I just enjoy learning new things.

Also, the rear skirt/aero flare is the triangular piece on the lower left side of the rear bumper in the 3rd pic. I'd also like to see that painted Stormy Blue Mica to see the contrast from the rest of the car.
thanks again!

sure thing. the areas I'm interested in are shown as black in the 2nd pic. I'd like to see if those areas were changed to Stormy Blue Mica for the 1st pic.

Bad news is I just saw your post about 20 min ago.
Good news is I'm working on the color, and hopefully it'll look good.
Other good news is, during working on that front end I found my way to an iridescent that I reallllllly like.
