thats what i can neva do is get a REAL looknig paint jobb how do you do it mate???

It's actually quite simple. I might make a quick video tutorial, but all I did was use the pen tool (selection mode) and select around the edge of the area I wanted to fill in, then I right clicked (with the pen tool still selected) and clicked make selection. Then I created a new layer, filled it with the colour I wanted then set the blending mode to colour. Then you need to get the smudge tool (with a average to small sized brush) and smudge out your colour layer until your happy with your paint job.

For the text all I did was type some text in black, then right clicked on it in the layer panel, click "Rasterize Layer". Then rotated and resized it to how I wanted it then set the opacity down until I was happy. Then I grabbed the pen tool and made a selection on the windows, where the wheels are etc. then I right clicked, made a selection then hit deleted so it deleted anything that was selected (in this case the excess font of "Kawasaki").

Might seem a bit complicated just reading it but it only takes a couple minutes lol.

Didn't include the text part, but thats pretty straight forward.

Correct, that. But you still need to select what you wanna colour.

Unless it is on its own layer of course.
