Car Chrome
I need help. I do a lot of custom car pictures and need a way to make chrome bumpers look realistic. They tend to reflect whatever surface they are shot over or around and it distorts them. Thank You. |

Re: Car Chrome
This is a really tricky one - a good reason for avoiding chrome bumpers. One method would be to select each piece, desaturate it and blur it; but, really, the best solution would be to redraw each bumper from scratch. A pain, I know, but that's the only way to get decent results. |
