Hi everyone - I'm looking at some pattern designs for textiles that come in multiple colorways and I'm wondering how they're made. In this specific case, does anyone have an idea how they made this pattern in different colorways? Is it as simple as shifting the hue, or do you think the florals are on their own layer and re-colored separately from the background? Any thoughts would be appreciated!
If you look closely at the tonal scale in the image, you will see that it does not change as you go from one color example to another. This suggests that perhaps the Mode was changed to Lab Color and straight line curves of the a and the b channels would provide the large variety of color schemes you want without affecting the tonal scale.
By way of demonstration the attached (using your top sample) shows an extreme flip of the a curve and an extreme flip of the h curve. Changing the a or the b to various slants independently or changing both at once are options. Then, if desired a local area may be changed by making s Selection followed up by Edit > Fill with the Blending mode set to Color. The best part: each version may be created in just a minute or two.
