Here's a good tutorial that shows how to make white patterns and markings in this technique! Thanks to ESWard!
Hope you like it ^^ I worked really hard on that to make it perfect!
I am not a native speaker

i used (tried to) the tutorials both coloring the grey scale and grey scale.... I have the Photo Shop 8, I couldn't follow the coloring part... So i was wondering if you maybe planned on making an updated verison? Or maybe you know how to find the color balance on PS8?

are you sure it's PS 8 and not PS ELEMENTS 8? You don't have color balance and curves in PSE.

Is there another way to open the colour balance window? I've tried to use the "Ctrl+B" command, but no window pops up. (I have ps elements 8, by the way)
π: 0 β©: 1
yes, it's in the menu -> picture -> corrections -> color balance
But I'm not sure if this function is in PS elements... :shrugs:

Hmmm...I don't think it is... I shall have to do some more digging.

I spent a rather long time working on this tonight: [link] I really love how she's coming together so far, but I'm completely stuck when it comes to adding in white markings without disturbing the shading underneath. Help, please?

ive always wanted to greyscale

There are two possibilities.
You can either duplicate the colored Greyscale layer, and make the copy very bright (Ctrl+M - Curve bend up, and Ctrl+U - Brightness up and Saturation down).
Then move the almost-white-layer under the color layer, and just erase all the parts you want to have white.
Use a hard edged brush on areas where is no fur (nose, hooves), a fuzzy/soft edged brush where the horse has fur. (legs, body, neck, face). Use only 50% opacity for dapples of grey horses.
The other possibility is to use the lasso tool and just select all the areas you want to have white (as you did before for the color changes), use a 1 or 2px soft edge for this. Then press CTRL+M and CTRL+U for making the selection almost white.

When I hit download I save it but its a .rar file, I have no idea what that it but it will not let me view it?

You need the winrar program to de-comprimize the file.
You can view the file here, too: [link]
