# Go nuts.
The only tools I really use (besides brush/erase and all that necessary shit) are smudge, burn, and dodge. I love them.

I'm trying to organise a four way, but they're not cooperating.

# Black and white can be good fun sometimes.
The burn and dodge tools do wonders with colour sometimes though.

You can either make it a darker, more vibrant colour or closer to black, or lighter in the same way.

If I'm not trying to restrict myself to a PNG or GIF, theres around about a 99.9% chance I use burn and dodge in the picture :)

# ahh

# Well, it does work sometimes
But the fact that it creates a gradient and the colours are restricted for GIFs means it comes out looking kind of contoured.

This is the last thing I remember animating with those tools
