Colourways
One Print. A Whole Colour Range. One Run.
Answer a buyer the way a colourist would: how many options, the mood, how the colours sit together, which colours must not change, and a short brief. The artwork is never redrawn, only recoloured, so repeats, registration and fine detail stay exactly as they are.

The design as uploaded
A painterly print with soft edges and a lot of tonal work, the kind that is slow to recolour by hand.

Twelve options back
Every option is a complete palette, not a hue spin. The pinned cream stays exactly; the ground and the peonies move together inside the Rich and deep mood.

Key Features
Artwork Never Redrawn
Only the colours change. Repeats, registration, linework and fine detail are preserved pixel for pixel.
A Mood You Can Promise
Fresh pastels, everyday mid tones, rich and deep, bright and bold, dark grounds or quiet neutrals, kept on every result, not just suggested.
Coordinated, Not Random
Each option is a complete palette with a dominant family, secondary, accent and ground, never a hue rotation.
One Flat Price Per Run
6 credits whether you make 6 options or 48. Ask for more rather than running it twice.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many options can I make in one run?
Up to 48. Large files allow fewer per run because every option is made inside one job; a greyed-out choice tells you the design is too big for that many.
Does it change the design itself?
No. The artwork is separated into colour layers and only the colours are replaced. Motifs, proportions, spacing and the repeat stay identical.
Can I keep the ground colour?
Yes. Tap the design to pin up to eight colours, such as the ground or a brand colour, and every option keeps them exactly.
How long does it take?
Typically under a minute for 12 options on a 4 MP design, longer for large files and high counts.
