metal man
Hello guys. Many of you are experts so maybe you can help me. I would like to make an image of Xman named Colosus. His special skill is that he can change into metal. 
I was wondering, how you would change photo of a muscle man (or a poser model) to look like it is made of metal?? 
Steve I think you achieved that very look I’m aiming for in your Oscar Backstabbing Parody. Would you recommend layer styles, or the metallic effect using Curves? Any suggestion would be very much appreciated guys..

Marv, maybe you could post a low-res version to the board and we can have a go at it? _________________ A happy-go-lucky chap, always dressed in black |

Yes, the Curves effect would probably work best. I'd really recommend doing this as an Adjustment Layer, though, so you can add the shading as you see the effect. |
