Description NOTE: This is not the ONLY way to blend in Photoshop. There are brushes and other brush settings one can use to blend with. In fact, a combination of blending brushes and this tool is great!

 Watch on YouTube  

**This is PERFECT for mouse artists who can't use pressure sensitivity or special blending brushes (made just for tablet users)!

This isn't me putting down SAI at all, just showing a way where you can blend in Photoshop like you can in SAI.

This tutorial /should/ work for PS 7+.

**HOW TO DO IN GIMP:
"To do the same thing in gimp, hit 'apply jitter.'" CitrineG

**HOW TO DO IN ELEMENTS:
comments.deviantart.com/1/3227…

I'm not a PS (or SAI) expert, but if you have any questions, just let me know and I'll do my best to help you!

I hope you find this tutorial helpful You can find more Photoshop related tutorials here .

a good way to do the same thing in gimp is to hit 'apply jitter'.

sambeawesome In reply to BabieFox98 [2012-08-22 23:57:53 +0000 UTC]

Oh no, I'm not sure :c I did a quick Google search to see if Elements has an equivalent 'scatter' option and I found these: [link] and [link]

Hopefully those can help you!
