[@dumbcat]

do you think it's worth the effort trying to paint in blender grease pencil? i am only aware of one youtuber doing this and she doesn't paint the kind of stuff i would. i've tried it a few times and it feels very difficult. there is no 'blend' or 'smudge' tool in grease pencil. it's starting to feel like a waste of time and something i should do in a different program like photoshop or procreate then import into blender. thanks

[@minthu6955]

CG ,watching three musketeers movie is good. if they want to change ? (very important). everton is in danger before x mas.. it going to make different in football.

[@funw3d538]

You glazed over how to set up those two lower windows, the mist pass window and the rendered window. I just noticed that you flipped the window controls to the bottom of each window. That's what threw me.

[@Sixstring65adgmail]

Can you also create ground fog with this technique (lineair gradient ?)

[@monish05m]

Yes, just create a mask only for ground.
