hey! when you mix new colors, do you start out with 100% opacity and then go to 50% or do you start with 50? Cause if I start with 100 and then go to 50 I can't see the new color..
Great tutorial by the way!

hm you should be able to see the color if you have 50% opacity if you paint an area with red and choose green and set it to 50% and draw over half the red and some outisde the red, the red area should be a redgreen color and the white around should have a faded green

ah! I tried to color over the red with 50% red because I kept switching form your dragon tut to your color tut. Thanks so much for your help!

I LOVE YOR TUTORIALSS!!
yes, I'm stalking you.. *cough*

Just... I gotta couple questions?
1. Do you have pressure sensitivity on to change brush size/roundness/opacity as you press harder/lighter, or do you do it all manually?
2. I see you only worked with one layer here.. Is there any reason for it other than personal preference? Does it help blending better or something?
3. HOW ARE YOU SO FULL OF AWESOMENESSH!!?

THANKS FOR ALL THE AWESOME TUTORIALS! <3

I have penpressure on size ^^ so my lines get thinner when i press light and thicker when i press hard. I chance opacity manually when i need to.

Yes it totally helps blending better, and its alot easier to keep order than having 100 layers.

xD im not that full of awesomeness really

8D and welcomesauce
