Anyone good with photoshop?

Im planning on painting my sennheiser 595s, probably matte/satin black on the olive/greenish body, and a lighter blue (grabber/azure blue) on the black grills. However, this sounds good in theory so i was wondering if any of you lovely fellows could draw me up a preview. Thanks, DD.

Got any pictures of the colors you want, for reference?

 

Circles around the parts you want colored can help too.

 

I've got a quickie file made up, and can change the colors around at will.

Just a five minute attempt. Head Injury can help you if this isn't what you wanted. I didn't save the PSD and I need sleep.

Heres a good reference for the chop. 

 

 
Or this thread has lots of em. 
For blue heres a similar color.
 
 
From what i saw on the first chop it looks nice, but id be awesome to see its full effect on the apearance on a whole to the headphones. 
 
Also thanks regardless deadeye, looks quite nice. I really need to get a version of photoshop sometime.

I only did the one cup too. I can do the far cup tomorrow, but you can probably mentally project what it'd look like. Are you coloring the headband, too?

No the headband is leather on mine, so i dont intend on painting it. I dont think ill be able to keep the sennheiser lettering/symbol unfortunately(i cant tape out that well) however i may make the senn emblem  template out and do it the same color as the grills and put it where that lettering is at. I like the black look, but im not sure about the blue, it seems maybe too bright and out of place. Any colors you guys would suggest?

I was thinking it was too bright too, but it might look darker when painted in real life. The same blue but darker and less saturated looks nice, closer to Deadeye's image but darker still.

Maybe a burnt orange color.

Even the default black looks nice with the recolored body. You could at least start coloring if you like that black, then decide on a grill color later.

Hmm i do like the burnt orange a bit. I would decide later but id rather not have to take it apart again. Could you please try these three? White, silver, and maybe copper? Thanks a ton.
