"its paint shop pro, its DXT-3, would 32 bit look better? "
DXT3 is all I use. Yes, if one has the computer resources to run files which are 4-8 times larger than DXT3, by all means use 32bit Extended.
I don't.
I was trying to see on your repaint if you had made the green and blue solid color (that's how it looks from a bloody-great-distance); if so, you should make them so the underlying paintkit detail still shows thru.
In Pixia it's a Hybrid Layer and in Photoshop a Multiply Layer should be used to cover the paintkit. I do not know what this layer would be called in PSP.
