I was getting a bit tired of the rather monotone shots of the A5/S5 so far, so I thought I'd do some quick photoshops to add some color.

I tried to emulate phantom black, sprint blue, papaya orange, and misano red. The colors may appear a bit brighter than they should be (especially if you're on a mac) because of gamma/color profile issues I didn't really care to fix.

no white :)

I avoided white because I couldn't get decent looking result - you'll notice it looks sort of metallic-y/blown-out. Here's my best shot so far:
