Changing the color of an item


Recommended Posts

Hi all, I don't know what I'm doing wrong here. I was following along with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZznuJ05GbnA

If you look at these two screenshots you'll see what I mean. I want to change the color of the phone to teal. I have selected the phone (then hidden the marching ants) but when I add an HSL layer and start moving it around it barely makes any difference. Is this because the phone is almost white in the first place? The rose in the video changes dramatically. If that IS the reason can anyone help with a method that might allow me to achieve this? 

Thanks!

Phil

You're probably right, the phone is too white for HSL to do much. Try changing the adjustment to recolor.

...or just paint over the phone with a Teal colour and set Layer Blend Mode to Colour.
