Color Blending cheatsheets

43 images total.
..here's how they were put together:
- There are 2 layers of the same colored lines overlapping each other. One layer has been rotated 90 degrees to cause a visual perpendicular crossover of the 2 layers.
- The number in the image name represents the opacity level of the layer using the specified blend type.
> Example: "multiply 50" means one of the layers is using the blendtype:Multiply and the opacity of that layer is 50%.
- The vertical line set is layer0, the horizontal line set is layer1. Layer1 contains the blending and opacity changes while layer0 never changes.
> In other words: Layer0 is your base color, and layer1 is your blend color.

Burning and dodging texture areas only goes so far during texture creation. Having these cheat sheets allows me to focus on exactly what I want to achieve..and quickly. (I've used simpler forms of them for years.)
..it's an out of place resource I'll admit that...but they're effective on many levels.
I also use these when I talk with people locally; I mentor a few college kids in my area and these sheets really help to discuss color theories, color uses, tweaking and all sorts of wild conceptual chat.

Also if you take a leaf out of Caylo's posts you'd fill the 100 word preview box with both ease and eloquence ;)
