No selective colouring!
o1. Crop and prep yours base, whatever you normally do. Duplicate the base and set to SCREEN @ 100%.
o2. Duplicate the ‘screen’ layer twice, leave the second layer (the one closest to the bottom) at 100%, but put the top one on 50% opacity and 30% fill.
&&
o3. Next, go Select-->All, Edit-->Copy Merged, Edit-->Paste. If you use Photoshop you can also press ctrl, alt, shift & e. I’m not sure about other programs though. Desature the merged layer.. Image-->Adjustments-->Destaturate. Now set the layer to SOFT LIGHT, with 100% opacity and 40% fill.
&&
o4. Create a Curves New Adjustment layer. Layer-->New Adjustment Layer-->Curves. I used the following settings, but all images will need and have different results.
RBG:
First point:
Input; 15 || Output; o
Second point:
Input; 128 || Output; 124
Third point:
Input; 240 || Output; 255
BLUE:
First point:
Input; 70 || Output; 65
Second point:
Input; 126 || Output; 140
Third point:
Input: 187 || Output: 191
Lower the opacity to 70%.
o5. Create a new layer. Layer-->New à Layer. Fill the layer with #626262. Set the layer to MULTIPLY with 50% opacity and 20% fill.
&&
o5. Create a new layer. Fill the layer with #DEDCDC. Set the layer to COLOUR BURN with 50% opacity.
