Hi there,
I have a client with about 65 tshirt dye styles. Tie-dyed, starburst pattern, acid wash - you name it - and each area of the tshirt has a unique color. i.e. a tie-dyed shirt has 4 colors say. My clients company lets customers pick the colors they want on their final shirt. They want a tool (non-flash so it can be used on Apple products) that allows users to visualize a rough representation of the shirts.
I have photos of all those shirts as well and have attached a few for illustration of this question.
What I'm trying to learn is can I use Photoshop (CS6) to separate out the colors in a shirt - even if it's something as wild as a tie-dyed shirt or other styles?
Also, do you know of any script that allows one to build a tshirt by selecting colors? Here's an example. dyenomite dot com slash Designer. This site does what I want on one hand but, they have a separate image for every color combination - literally tens of thousands of options. My problem is I have over 2000 colors a user can select from (the whole PANTONE palette).
It would be great I could somehow create a vector of each of the tshirt style areas (I'm definitely asking how I do this), put all the hex codes in for the 2000 colors and then the tool would color each of the vectored areas with the users selection.
Thank you very much in advance for any help you might be able to give. Happy holidays to you and yours as well!
Jerry
