    Hi, could you post those variants here again?

    well, I have the same idea to practice digitally to develop the necessary skills in mixing paints and so on. But lately I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s a rather different experience to paint in real life or in a program. I personally haven't tried using the method I asked about before, as it seemed pretty tedious to me.

    As for those green hair I completely redrawn them without `use real color blending` option and as it often happens, the result turned out to be a little different, and I did not save the first `green` variant. but even disabling this option still does not completely eliminate unexpected colors when mixed.

    So, I ended up using a grid to assist with drawing, (still a valid traditional method) which required I actually practice drawing skills.
    I still just usign a layer with a reference photo to redraw what I need but I feel it's realy teaching us nothing so using a method you are talking about is realy alternative and still a valid alternative. If you ever watched `Portrait painter of the year` then it becomes clear that more than half of the participants use this method, including experienced artists, and no one really bothers.

    unfortunately, the real experience of mixing oil paint colors, and its application to canvas simply cannot be replicated accurately in any current software available
    I came to the same conclusion, but even considering this, you paint, you mix paints, and in the end you enjoy creativity.

    Here is a link to the palette blender. This is not useful for painting and really is only good for making color strings and mixing on a virtual palette.

    My brushy blender was really for AR5 and has no texture... you can make a new one: just duplicate your favorite brush with "Color Refresh" (in brush designer) set to zero, save it under a new name.
    This makes a new blender with the same look as your favorite brush, only it puts no paint down, just blends what is already on the canvas.
