I'm brand new to creating and I've found many tutorials for using the old Create mode for maps, specifically using maps on Zell heads to create makeup for avatars. I haven't found something specific to this for Studio and am unsure if I'm overlooking or if this is a pointless search at this moment.

 

I'm having such an issue figuring out why the colors I upload using the mask are so diluted. I'm trying to wrap my head around how to properly use a map and upload it while still maintaining the colors I had in my photo editor. Very much a beginner problem, but I'd love to learn more! :)

I should have added @mofaux​ The Material Maps should work the same way for both the old Create Mode and IMVU Studio. Once you have used the maps to make your material, the application of the texture is a little different but the concepts are the same. The help you may be seeking for Material Maps can be searched for the Graphic Editor you are using. It would be different between Adobe, GIMP, Paint, etc.

 

I know there are tutorials out there. Try Googling something like "How to create makeup for IMVU mesh heads" to see what comes up :)

 

Hope this helps.

Hi @mofaux​ A great place to get started with the Studio is by going through some of the Videos list on You Tube.

You may also find more information and walk-through steps in the Creator Education Center.

Hope these help...
