Quick Tips | Paint

Hi everyone!

Today I would like to show you a trick, how to recolor paint accents in a fun way. This method works with any kind of transparent elements as well.

First, open one of your favorite background paper, and a painting of your choice.  For this tutorial I used one of the papers from En Route Part 1, and a painting from Paint Accent 1.

Locking transparent pixels helps you to recolor the paintings without any effort.

The painting will be more realistic if you set the blending mode to color burn, and play with the fill to get a cool result.

Hope you enjoyed this tutorial!
