I was not too sure how these birds would turn out, but I think they are fine. There is definitely a bit of trial-and-error and so much depends on the image.
(Check out the Blunt – Round Blender and Fan – Flat Blender – I have used both mixer blenders to paint images – try adjusting the Size and some of the Options Bar settings for different results.) If you change some brush settings and like the results, be sure to save the preset to keep those settings. Check out some of the Converted Legacy Tool Presets – Default Tool Presets (open the top left pop out and select) to get some really nice brushes to start some painting.
These birds were mainly painted using PS Mixers – mostly the blenders at different sizes and shapes. The image above is one I experimented with using what I hope looks like a bit of a Fall background scene.
Since I have not been taking a lot of images recently, I decided to practice some painting in Photoshop. REBLOG – HOW TO USE PHOTOSHOP’S BRUSH TEXTURE SECTION FOR PAINTING CLEAN-UP
