Once you reach the texturing stage for a Prototype asset, you will have the option to use the Fill Colour tool to colour your asset.

Once you click on "Manual fill colour," the fill colour tool will open up on the left panel.&#x20;

Here, you can apply colours to each of your model's meshes. There are three of ways to select a colour:

* Use our colour palette
* Enter the hexadecimal or RGB values of your desired colour
* Get exact colours from your sample image or uploaded image by clicking anywhere on the input image
