Now for the clever part, this tip can be used in many situations. While on the Cf layer, hold ctril + click the layer that holds the part you are adding carbon to, i.e. the bonnet. This automatically selects the outline on the bonnet, but on the CF layer. Right click and do select inverse. Hit delete and you should be left with the perfect shape of the bonnet on the CF layer.
On the layers box, make sure the CF layer is selected and change the layer blending mode to 'multiply'
Ok then, nearly finished. The final step is to flatten the CF layer on to the bonnet layer (de-saturate now if you haven't already done so). Then it is simply a case of lowering the brightness so that the carbon looks more realistic. Sometimes you may have to play with the contrast to achieve the desired effect.
Finished! After all that work you should now be able to go away and create awesome Carbon body parts quickly and easily! If you feel adventurous then you can always play with colouring the bonnet to create one off effects.
now tell me you love me
