Imo it's not how bright it is, i think its more related with the actually shade of blue, it's too colorfull, do you honestly like it?

I uploaded two pics:

Notice the difference in color rather than brightness, i didnt touch brightness, just saturation.

I still think it's really too blue for my tastes... it's too "animeish" without the highlighting >.>

Thats a matter of preference, i am trying to keep his choice of color because it's what he likes, but trying to shield him from offuscation when running through jeuno , who knows where he might end up if he doesnt see the way whent he sun shines on his hairdo D:

Yea, But, I still think it's too bright, too boldish to even look like hair, if you get what i'm trying to say. If you want to turn it blue, you should just play with the saturation effects, and the hue, that way it changes the pre-made shading that's already in the game, and therefor it'll look more natural.

I have no idea what i'm doing with model editing, but, I do alot of photoshop work >.>

Yea if you 'colorize' when youre messing with hue/saturation you're gonna lose the real shadeing and stuff, and then things look like teh ass d:

Depends on what you're trying to do with it, really. If you want everything to have the same general color but keep the shading, Colorize is better than Hue/Saturation/Light. You don't lose shading when you Colorize, you lose color information, which is generally ok since the only reason you'd Colorize is to change the color information anyway.

Re: been playing around with my taru /check it out :p

Because you're changing the color information and making all of the colors the same you're losing the subtle variations in color that might be there. Subtle variations in color can add more dimensionality to what you're doing, but some colors actually look the same tone of gray when you take the color out completely. That means the subtle variations will be lost if they're all colorized to the same color. So there can be a loss in depth by simply colorization alone, but that's not always the case. Generally it's safer to use hue/saturation if you're looking to maintain the quality of depth. In something that is already pretty much monochromatic to begin with it doesn't make much of a difference. But if you colorize something and experience a loss of depth, sometimes Auto Levels can take care of that.
