How to paint ornaments easily in Substance Painter

Schaten

I want to ask that if is there any easy way of assignig ornamnets on model easily other than painting by brush. I model and detail object in zbrush. export Lp and HP meshes. I bake Low poly and high poly meshes in substance. Assing materials by UV. All is ok. But i want those ornaments to be in another color. Is there an easy way of that ?. may be polypainting in zbrush and exporting map from zbrush and use it as masks in Susbstance. but i dont know if is that possible.

if you polypaint in zbrush it is visible in the color mask that substance painter creates. You can then use "mask by color" to mask a layer.

Thank you very much. I've found the solution by your advice. But one thing: I Cant bake colorıd map in SP sometimes. It comes with black map. But i export color map from zbrush then import to SP and everything is ok.

When you export the OBJ file from zbrush it should say "exporting OBJ with polypaint" at the top of the screen. This is where the colors in substance painter comes from. 

Also when you bake maps in substance painter click on the map called ID in the baker dialog. This should have two drop downs. The top one should be set to "Vertex Color" to get vertex color from zbrush.
