Step 3 – Exporting Face Overlay
In order to export Face Overlay you have to click on it, then click on the ‘Edit’ button that will show up in the top corner. When you do that a new window will pop out. You have to click Export and than save it.
I am going to save this file as EYESHADOW on my desktop but you can give it different name and save it in any place you like. Some people like to create a folder called “Projects” or something similar, and create a new folder inside that for each thing they make, to keep the files for that project separate, but this is all entirely up to you.
At this point I should probably tell you that although this tutorial is in english, sometimes on my screenshots some Polish words may appear (just like in the picture above).
Right now we have everything that we need from this eyeshadow so it’s time to move on. But before we start the actual process of creating the multicolor eyeshadow with eyeliner we will also need the face overlay for an eyeliner.
Step 4 – Getting an eyeliner
In order to get it we will repeat Step 2 and Step 3. The only difference is that instead of choosing an eyeshadow we have to choose an eyeliner.
Step 5 – Starting the actual project
Now when we have both files exported, saved in a safe place and ready to use we can start making the multicolor eyeshadow with eyeliner that we wanted to make.
First of all we have to create new project. Just like before you have to select Makeup/Facial overlay. Next instead of choosing eyeshadow or eyeliner we will select costume makeup. It may seem strange to be using costume makeup for this but there is a very good reason to do so – it supports having some different colors!
This time you will have to fill in all the project details. Just remember that the project unique identifier must be really unique. To help to make sure it’s unique, and different from your other creations and those by other creators, you can include your creator name or creator initials and a date (eg. Oct09, or as I’ve done below, 101009), as well as a short name for the creation.
Now we finally have the project that we will be working with.
When you open the ‘Texture’ tab on the right you will see that this time there are not only ‘Face Overlay’ and ‘Face Specular’ but also ‘Mask’ (which is responsible for different colors on different parts).
