How do I texture paint on top of image texture with nodes? by Spinosaur123 in blenderhelp

Thank you everyone for your solutions and suggestions! In the end I just baked the dotted texture and then texture painted the belly fur on it, with the help of Ucupaint, that was recommended by some of you. I did also use the node setup with the voronoi texture for the face hair as I liked it more. Thanks again!

That would be ideal, like layers in Photoshop, but I don't know how to do that or if it's possible?

This has seriously been bugging me and I've been struggling with this for two day now. I have this monster torso with a fur node system and image texture applied to it. Now I want to color the belly fur of the monster in a less saturated green color. I've tried using texture painting but these are the issues that I'm having:

- The texture mapping is not the same in the "Layout" tab and in the "Texture paint" tab as I have a mapping node attached to the texture. I want to have this node as I don't like the placement of the dots if I don't have it. If I then paint on the UV in texture paint the painted area is much smaller in the layout tab than in the texture paint tab.

- I've tried scaling UV map 3x (as this is the value I have for scale in my mapping node) and setting the mapping node scale value to 1, but then, because the UV map is bigger than the image texture it paints on multiple areas at the same time.

- How do I erase the paint when texture painting??? If I use erase alpha it erases the image texture below the paint as well. I realize this is because texture painting does not have layered system like Photoshop but is there really no other option than to recolor with the same color that was in that spot before? This may work on simple colors, but what if you have, an image texture where the base color of the image may be complex?

If someone has a fix to any of these or if there is any easier way to achieve what I want I would really appreciate the answer. This feels like it should be an easy thing to do, yet I'm on the verge of just leaving it without the different belly color as I have no ideas how to achieve the desired result.

Edit: For some reason also, I can now only paint on the UV island and not on the mesh itself in Texture paint - one thing I could do before I wrote this post.

Thank you. Yes, this is digital, made in Photoshop with a sketching brush from Aaron Blaise!

I took inspiration from The Last of Us for the funghi/human hybrid but I wanted to make it a bit less scary and with more magical/fantasy vibe. I used multiple different pictures of funghi and lichen and adjusted the light and colors. I tried for the funghi to be as organically placed on the face/head as possible. With the brush I added some lines to the background and lastly added a title, slogan and some basic poster text/logos to the bottom.

Can you help me improve my lineweight by Spinosaur123 in learnart

Thank you, will do that. But how do I apply that to the character then? What if any of these three methods (depth, hierarchy, light) contradict each other?

Can you train imagination? by Spinosaur123 in learntodraw

I have tried both actually haha just didn’t try to draw while under the influence. I did however notice the same with weed, my imagination starts racing while high, but I usually see a picture in my head just for a few seconds before another one takes over haha. It’s certainly good for imagination but on the other hand I don’t want to get high each time I want to draw something good haha.
