The name is Amy, and you're welcome Tinting or adjusting a material color is not that hard to do in the material painter dbx; I do it fairly frequently. I only go into another program if I really can't get exactly what I want.

Here are a couple of jpegs you can convert to a custom material. One I found and cropped, the other I made. Hope one or the other works for you. PS - it was easier to start with grey barnboard and overlay/tint with the red, than the other way around.

I think I would try the material painter and use the "blend color with texture" function as well. Select a grayish color to overlay over red vertical siding and I would think it would come out kind of washed looking. I've successfully created a driftwood color that way. Another thing I will do in these instances is create my own custom material. Google 'faded red barnboard' to see if you can find an image with the look of what you're after, then import into Chief, adjust as needed and add to your user catalog.

Where do we get notifications that these new catalogs are available? I stumbled across this one in here but it seems as if I only find out about them by accident. Once in a while I'll see something on FaceBook, but rarely. Shouldn't we get emails or something when a new download comes out?

I was offered the opportunity to do it on my first sign-in. This is a test to see if it actually worked. edited to add: it did work!
