Trying to figure out an easier way to change fabric samples! help!


i think i got it!! im not too fond of the seat i used, i think i may look for the image that the other guy used. but i got it!! thanks guys!
 
Hey, not sure what you may be doing wrong, but it still looks different than Colleagues. Can you post your PSD?
 
The seat you chose is much better than the other. It's a larger file.

honestly im a bit weary uploading it because i don't want competitors to see lol. but im pretty damn proud of myself and any critic is welcome, im just running out of time now. the only part im not too happy with is the bottom seat and the side parts....but for my first go i think it's good. i have so much to learn with all these new features!!!
 
You have to have the Chair layer above the groups of smart objects and it needs to be set to the "Multiply" blending mode.

when i do multiply on the seat, it makes some of the fabrics look weird/darker. That's why I didn't do the multiply on that part. Plus it shows the sttiching on the original seat which I didn't want.....however, mine does lay weird.

damn, let me play with them again.
 
see, the turtle fabric is much lighter. on your image it's much darker. we want to emphasize the design. that's why i didn't go with multiply



Mod edit: Please upload images directly to PSG. Only use an offsite host if the images are too big for the forum.
 
you can make your seat lighter by using a level adjustment-layer or a curve adjustment layer on top
hi colleague! thank you so much for all your input. let me try to play with those layers. i think i need to buy an updated book on photoshop lol.

but i will be on here more i think. i am seeing so much more potential i can use it for.
 
I will try to explain a concept. Without shading and highlights, you loose depth.

Here is a sphere....

The sphere covered in fabric with the fabric layer above the sphere layer. Note that the shading and highlights are now missing.
The sphere becomes a flat surface without depth.

The sphere layer set to multiply above the fabric layer. (the color does change)
(Also note: You can place the fabric layer or fabric group above the sphere layer
and set it to multiply as well)

If you don't use the "multiply" technique, you will have to add in the shading and highlights yourself with the brush tool on a layer above the fabric layer.
(did this real fast so it's sloppy)

hey, thanks! i'm going to look over your template! i was playing around with mine and think it's good, but i'm always down for more input.

but my current issue is that one of my designs isn't coming out looking too good. i am playing with layers and trying to adjust whatever i can before giving up and asking for you guys to help.
