how do i transform pictures to black and white with color eyes?

Question

i have corel paint shop pro x and i was wondering how you kept a picture black and white and then made just the eyes in color.. but to make the eyes look real not painted on.. if anyone knows can you tell me how or guide me or something.. let me know thanks<3

Answer 1

You use layers...mask or halo the eyes and create a layer...go back to the background and turn down the saturation until B&W...then the eyes will stay colored in the foreground or different layer...this is just the easy steps...if you want more..email me.

Answer 2

is really simple, just need to use a graphic program (panit shop or photoshop would work great) :

1* select the eyes (usally there is a laze)
2* invert selection
3* there should be an option like: color >> gray scale

on corel u should be able to do the same, just the name changes

Answer 3

with Photoshop is easy..

select eyes area

invert selection

image > adjusment > channel mixer > (check the monochrom box)

deselect

voila! it's done!

sorry, never use corel paint shop pro x, i know how to do it by corel draw 12 though

Answer 4

Can't you just grab the eyes off picture #1, save 'em on another pic #2, turn #1 to B/W, then copy the eyes again from #2 and paste them back onto #1?

Answer 5

I would just turn whole thing black and white and copy colored eyes with 'softedge' or 'anti-alising' and paste it on top of black and white photo. Or just select the eyes in black and white photo and adjust hue, saturation and other colorization.

I wish you would have good luck .
