Get A Doll That You Wish To Add Patterns. This is Shania, to make her Click Here.

This is the pattern i am going to use. I got them from xandorra and i had cropped it to a smaller size. (for no reason actually, just to save webspace :P)

Ok reminder -> You should have 2 of your dolls. Meaning you copy and paste it to somewhere else first, you'll need it later

Ok here goes, you place the pattern on top of your doll. Clear whatever there is so that there's only the dress left. Now clear the details away (the gold parts)

Make Sure You Have That box clicked (circled in red) This would make white transparent. Here you'll see that the doll that i have copy and paste earlier on. Put the pattern dress over the doll

Here we are going to re-color the pattern. Choose a color you want your pattern to be in. (here i chose dark red). If you are a patient you can color the pattern pixel by pixel ^^ but well there's a faster way. Here you see in the middle (you'll see this beside the color box. the color underneath is what you want your pattern to be and the color above is the color you pattern is.). Use a color picker and right-click on a color you want your pattern to be. Then use the color picker and click on the color your patterns are right now (which is black. For this do not right click). Then use the eraser tool, click right click without letting go...and just go over the black pattern. This would re-color the pattern to dark red. If you don't understand, well you can just re-color it pixel by pixel.^^

Now we are going to clear the mess. Get rid of the pattern that overlapped the dress outline and the underside of the dress by coloring it in the color it suppose to be (which is dark blue for the outline and lighter blue for the underside dress)

Just like coloring details, you follow the dress color shade. Where the dress is in light color, your pattern should be in a light color too. (i am not good at explaining so just stare at the picture, you'll understand) You can use the palette up there.

Well That's It!
