Oh Color Dodge, I think I love you:
I messed around with some brush settings and found myself deeply enamored of the scatter brush setting. While it’s not the precision instrument that I’m used to, and getting a hard edge out of it is next to impossible, the “feel” of it is very interesting and I found it a lot easier to build up levels of color than with the regular round-to-oblong brushes that I’ve been using over the past 11 weeks. I probably need to devote a few hours to just making up brush settings and playing around with this aspect of Photoshop a bit more.
