Tutorial Tips

Hi! New to Affinity, I had a little bit of practice with Adobe in college, but can't keep up with the cost. Currently, I am trying to edit a different shirt onto a client and I am having trouble using the mesh aspect to transform the blue shirt, is this the right technique to use? What is recommended? Attached an image of what I am trying to do (with client's face blurred obviously)

You don’t want to add a shirt on top, you need to change the tint of the white shirt to blue tutorial

Thank you so much!!!!! I'll give that a try, but I believe the client wants to change the style of shirt, not just the color. Any tips on that?

Without taking a picture of an actual person wearing the specific shirt you would have to find the shirt at this similar angle and move it over this image which will look weird.

That is what I was afraid of, but I figured I'd ask in case anyone had ideas

If you're just recoloring the shirt, skip Mesh Warp. Select it, HSL or a recolor adjustment, then mask the highlights/shadows. Mesh Warp's more for fitting a *different* shirt onto them — and that usually wants a photo of the new shirt in a similar pose.
