Thank you Sheena.

Thank goodness the Queen always wears saturated solid colour clothes that make it easy to key or composite!

Best regards, Euan.

How fun! The tutorial is excellent and easy to follow tutorial.

Here's something similar that I created recently. I used the masking function in Fresco to mask the clothes on a new layer set to multiply blend mode. Then I painted with a custom brush on the masked layer to create the patterned look of the fabric. After that I went kind of wild with the painting and added the patterns all over.
