Hi, you could try the following: Add a new layer to the first image, and fill the layer with the following color: #810037 - then set the blend mode of this layer to "color"

Hope this is what you're looking for

After changing the Mode to Lab Color and Edit > Fill with the Blending Mode set to Color (the overall dark pink) almost all the adjustments were made in the L channel via Curves, by first inverting the curve and then making the adjustments. The only other adjustment was made by placing a light pink layer below the image layer and using Blend If to lighten diamond shapes. Then made a composite of the image, returned to RGB Color to tweak local contrast. The curve shown below is the very first of several adjustmentss of the L channel. No selections or masks used.

There is no simple solution to get exactly the second example. As you can see, the tonal values are much different. Adding a color to the entire image, as Jody suggests, works very well in some cases. This image, however, will need to be done selectively. In other words, make a selection of each part and change the color.

Just a thought on an alternative approach.

You could position the second image above the first

Then clone /paint the gaps. The vanishing point filter helps
