A Krita Python plugin that makes messing with colors while shading less exhausting
1 - Click the green "Code" button at the top of the repo, and click "Download ZIP".
2 - In Krita, go to Tools > Scripts > Import Python Plugin from File and choose the zip file you downloaded earlier.
3 - Restart Krita.
Updating the plugin is done the same way.
In Krita, go to Settings > Dockers, and enable Shading Helper. A docker will pop up.
Currently, only the top row functions. The second row is non-functional. I'll make it functional in later versions, don't worry.
Enter the hue range of colors you want to change the shading color of. In the image above, colors of hue value between 90 and 270 have their shading colors changed.
By the way, by "shading color", I mean the layer above the base color that is for the shading. I personally set the layer to 40% Multiply. Alright, now you know.
To the third space, enter the hex code of the color you want to change the shading color of. You can write it with or without the hashtag.
Before you click "Start Changing Colors", make sure the base color layer is selected, and also make sure that the shading color layer is named to "Shading". It's case-sensitive. And make sure the shading layer is drawn on and alpha-locked, or else the results won't be good. And make sure that the base color and shading layers are not grouped as well. Done? Now press the "Start Changing Colors" button and easily change the shading color of colors with hue value that falls into the range you provided!
