I posted this in the general discussion section, but suddenly thought it should be here, sorry.
When I colorize a grayscale photo I notice that the color i'm painting is consistent as long as I don't release the mouse.
If I release the mouse button, and then begin to paint in the same selection with the same color, it changes the previously painted shade of the color.
Is there a trick into maintaining the same color when one begins to paint in missed areas?

Hi Frank;

I didn't have time to test your issue, however I suspect you should
set your blend mode to color... It won't hurt to try... Tom :)
