Hey i don't know if anyone has posted this on here but I was making a clip and needed one to look like it was sunset and one to look like it was night. Initially I thought I would have to change the color of everything, but then I started messing around with anime studios settings and discovered the color blending mode.
All you have to do is:

1: create a new layer over all of your existing layers.
2:Pick a color that you want to have everything looking like. Like for night I chose dark blue and sunset I chose orange.
3. Use the square tool and make a square that covers the scene.
4. Go to layer settings on the square layer only, and change the layer blending mode to color.
5. Click on preview and adjust the color as needed.


It worked great for me I like the effect a lot!

Thanks, that's a good tip.

AS as a kind of Illustrator?

These techniques are great for softening images and making them look more organic (and changing day to night ).
