Hi Pat.....
Here are my blenders and settings, you can change size when needed...you will know when it's time to change.
I use any combination of these, just what ever looks good.....and start evenly rubbing from light to dark or dark
to light, depending on the shading you're after.

Sometimes start with Facesmooth2
I use Facesmoothoverall for pores and textures
And Fineshade for a bit smoother look

There's probably better ways of blending, but this is the current way I do it.

Back to the Hat....
Almost done, some tweaking and detailing then up to the Gallery.

This is a fabulous thread. I am very inspired to try your settings. Gonna have some fun today.

Hi Victor....
Thanks for stopping by, I' am just learning as I go as well!
Let me know if those blender values work or if you find other
settings, always looking for something new!
Glad you like the thread.
Take care,
Steve
