Blending

Recommended Posts

Most of the time blending of colours/shapes is achieved with a blur tool or something similar.

 

 

 

Often a brush tool is used at a low opacity. The artist grabs a colour (using ALT), paints and repeats to achieve a smooth, gradiented blend.

 

 

 

I can't really give you any more advice than that unless you have a particular example you wish to blend. Every "blend" is different. :)

I think he means Blending Modes.

 

 

 

Blending Modes work on the basis of the relationship of overlapping pixels on different layers. Luminosity, colour and transparency are some of the factors that affect the outcome.

 

 

 

Should be in Questions sticky anyway.

If you're using GIMP

 

 

 

duplicate layer so you have 6 of the hing you are blending.

 

use gaussian blur like this:

 

Layer 6 (lowest): 20 px blur

 

5: 16 px blur

 

4: 12 px blur

 

3: 8 px blur

 

2: 4 px blur

 

1: 0 px blur

 

 

 

 

 

this should get you some pretty decent blendinnnnggs!
