[ichimilk] Opal Scales for Male Raens

westlaketea for the original scales+ mod, as well as sting and croc
tzarev for TBSE

An opalescent scale recolor for male Raens. A private recolor originally just for face 1 and face 3, but now added face 2 and face 4 along with tails!

I've used an opal scale recolor before Dawntrail but to this point I haven't seen anything for males. Originally made for myself, but I thought. What the hell, sure. Since this uses TBSE textures, it should work with every derivative of TBSE.

There is a neck seam for the scales color. I tried fixing it but unfortunately this is the best I can do with it ;-;

Included is a PNG overlay of the colors for modded tails. To blend it in perfectly with the rest of the scales, please follow these instructions!

Compatibility with Westlaketea's Sting and Croc tail mods.

1. Save a PNG image of your modded tail texture (the color of the scales MUST BE THE VANILLA RAEN COLORS)
2. Create a blank white layer on top of the texture
3. Layer the tail overlay on top of the blank white layer
4. Duplicate the original tail texture on top of the overlay texture
5. Place a greyscale filter on the duplicated vanilla tail texture and set the layer to COLOR BURN
6. Set the tail overlay to 60% opacity
7. Save, import into textools/penumbra, and done :)
