| I have created a number of smart areas on the image of the house I want to color. The problem is that when I apply a color, it looks more like a stain than a paint. I am using an image of my recently stripped house. Is there a way to apply a virtual primer and then apply the "paint" to get a more realistic view of the colors |

In some rare cases, an applied color might look faded or appear to have not enough strength compared to a physical sample. To increase the color strength of a color applied to a SmartImage Area so it matches that of a color chip, do the following:
While in Colorize mode:
a. Apply the desired color
b. Double click on the SmartImage Area in the SmartImage Areas Palette
c. Move the "Opacity" slider towards the right
d. Click Ok
e. Repeat until color reaches desired intensity.
Please note that there will be a tradeback between color accuracy and photo realism. So as you increase color strength you will start to lose detail in the shadows and mid-tone ranges. |
