Oh lord please don't eat me for my gradient QwQ

Aww, tysm! <3 For gradients, I use one of the 2 colors and with a brush transparency of .4 I create 2 in between colors for the 2 original. From there, I blend the in between colors, and eventually the original colors with 2 brush colors at a transparency of about .16 The way I blend is semi-similar to @Teakettle's, in the way the I also color blend the in betweens, but instead of using the secondary color to blend with, I put the colors next to each other and blend. I also use less layering techniques. @Teakettle's gradient tutorial ->
