# Selective Colourisation practice


B3ta's Bob Todd likes the old burger.

Can you please advise on how I'd bring up that ketchup stain on her mouth without looking too fake?

Used GIMP to do this.

# Yes. Not remove the colour from it in the first place.
have the mouth stain and the burger deselected.

# That's the way I've done it
But it looks fake, despite it not being so.

# Shadow & highlight
Then drop the gamma/up the exposure a little, then make claws with your hands, hold them over your head and walk sideways down the office croaking "We are the lobster people, we are the lobster people."
