Hey everyone, I am trying to colorize a photo, the method i have been using worked up until a few moments ago and now i am lost.

pick color > new layer > foreground color > add layer mask > black transparency > eraser

but now its not working... any clues on how to fix

thanks

You can add a blank layer above you picture and set Blending Mode to "HSL Color", then paint away.

Usually its white reveals and black conceals.
Never heard of using the eraser to paint on a layermask.
