Hey everybody.
I wanted to practice my painting again, and found out that I have not improved.
I use painter 7, but I am one of those people who do not like reading the manuals or the help. I want to get in and start painting and playing around with the tools.
I cannot seem to get smooth blending. When I apply a darker shade, for example to the jaw, I want it to blend smoothly with the lighter regions of the cheek.
I use the Digital Airbrush with an opacity setting of 10, but this takes time and after a while, with so many touch ups, I just start losing faith.:thumbsdow
Could anybody explain how to get excellent shading/blends without using a smudge like tool?
For the full sized image click here (bandwidth might be a prob)
