If you set the brush Flow to 20%, hold down left-click and begin to paint. The downside to this is sometimes you can get banding where the opacity layers haven’t blended well.įlow works differently, All you need to do is hold down the left mouse button once. Essentially, the way opacity works is by stacking levels of opacity on top of each other. Only when you release the mouse button and then click it again, does it then darken by another 20%. It doesn’t matter how often you paint over the same area, that area won’t get any darker. When you left-click and hold to paint with a brush that has a low opacity level such as 20%.
