Christophe Desse Shows How You Can Create a Color LUTs for Substance Painter.

If you are both the person how loves to work with Color LUTs and Substance Painter, then check out Christophe Desse’s tutorial on the subject. Allegorithmic’s Substance Painter can use color lookup tables by loading an active color profile. However, if you already have a custom lookup table that you’ve used elsewhere down the pipe, such as Redshift and Photoshop, it would be nice to keep consistent. How is not that obvious though.

Color Look-Up Tables (LUTs) are merely matrices of numbers that apply a color transform to an image, or in Painter’s case the viewport. LUTs makes up the differences between the source and the result. Desse shows how you can create a color LUT file for Painter so that your colors are consistent with everything in your workflow.
