How to Make Cloud Party Mask Texture Pattern Presets

It has the tint color applies to it tinting the white part of the mask. Thus the Output is Tinting. The second value is set to Two color -Red Mask. Don't worry about the Red Mask part of the value. This just means you mesh object has a tint color applied through the white shape of the Mask. The rest of the is black, this is the background color. So the Red Masking allows you to define a background color to complement the tinted white.
