edit 8/31/2021: i came back to my old da account after a few years for shits and giggles (i posted this in middle school, i'm in college now) and completely forgot about how this blew up. Apparently this brush is still relevant in 2021 so I want to address a few things that might be helpful

1. looking at the comments, i've noticed some complaints that the brush doesn't work in newer versions of firealpaca or something. what i've gathered is that load color is now called "complement," but other than that i haven't done digital art in years and there's not much i can do to help. there are a few people giving tutorials in the replies in my absence (thank you!), so i'd recommend looking at that.

2. there's another issue with this brush that i felt needed addressing. it's probably not a big deal because it's just a brush and i don't think anyone has noticed this in the 5(?)ish years this has been up, but i still feel morally obligated to bring this up.

this brush was an almost direct iteration of another brush by tumblr user katolilly. it's literally the same exact brush with the opacity turned down. i guess i found the brush more useful at a lower opacity rather than the full opacity katolilly used and i wanted to share it, but it definitely was not in good taste to post it as my own brush just because i changed one setting.

again, please keep in mind i was in middle school and definitely did not have good judgement when it came to art etiquette (the art i used as an example here was also traced from a body reference 💀) but that doesn't excuse the fact that katolilly deserved all the credit and positive comments i received for this. i believe their url is inactive now and i'm not sure if they're still online under a new url or platform, but I'll still link the original tumblr post from their url archive. that's it really, i just wanted to get that off my chest

I just wanted to share this really helpful brush with you guys: A blending brush for FireAlpaca! It's sorta like the water brush in Paint Tool Sai (I think ), and a great alternative to the blur brush. Anyways, all info in on the image. You're welcome and good luck! (And yes, this is another promo for my gemsona which is taking forever >_>)
