I've always been bad at blending and shading I always thought the only way to do it was by tone but the only thing I've got is a mouse and ms paint so this is very helpful ^^

So, to make that last ball, the really smooth one, you go over it with just one color?

Great tuts, by the way. Very easy to comprehend.

This actually explains something I wanted to try besides using the "standard" 5px soft round brush. Awesome and simple tutorial but does explain some nice things that can be done.
