[Scotty]

 

select a smaller brush

 

and make sure you zoom in enough

Im sure there is a much easier way, but ok

I think there is a colour replacement tool, but I thought you wanted to keep the green top (and personally I haven't got a clue about how to use the colour replacement tool)

Ctrl + click on the layer you want to paint (the thumbnail) + colour it with a brush?

Why dont you just select the layer you want to color and hide the others?

Put an empty layer above the tree layer. Then click create clipping mask, this will make it so it only goes onto the object. Then just put the brush on brown, resize the brush to your liking and color it to whatever you want.
