How to make alternate color skins tutorial

Well, in this case I'm not a huge fan of the original jacket color combinations, and wanted to change them a bit.

So: i went to photoshop and made the RGB texture you can see on the top right, where i painted all the yellow zones in red (255,0,0 RGB), all the blue ones in green (0,255,0 RGB)  and all the pink ones in blue (0,0,255 RGB). so with that i have a texture that combined with the "Separate RGB" node in blender i can use those Red green and blue as black and white values to use as factors in the "Mix RGB" nodes to change the colors.

Give it a try, you can get some cool custom color combinations.

Also, see that last mix rgb node? i used the same metallic imput to overlay a white color over the new color scheme to preserve the metallic parts as "white metal" instead of getting them tinted by the new colors
