: Mesh mask for easier color versions? I have a water droplet I've designed using a mesh and a gradient for a glare spot. However, I need to make it as easy as possible to swap the base color

Posted in: #AdobeIllustrator #Color #GradientMesh

I have a water droplet I've designed using a mesh and a gradient for a glare spot. However, I need to make it as easy as possible to swap the base color of the droplet.

I need to export for versions in dozens of colors - but I'm not clear on the best way to do this. Rather than duplicating the layer and editing all colors of the mesh (error prone too, I need each image to represent specific colors).

Is there a way I can turn the mesh into a mask of some sort, and then provide a flat, single-color version in the background?

If not, what's an easier way to change the base color?

The easiest way to do this is to either recolor what you already have via Edit > Edit Colors > Recolor Artwork or....

Create your mesh without any color. Using simple opacity options in the mesh to add shadows and highlight. Then add a new fill via the Appearance Panel and move that fill below the "Mesh" object in the Appearance Panel.

This is just a quick example. You could certainly refine the appearance a great deal.
