[kitty3309]

Ooh! Thanks, I`ve been doing it all wrong! Well, not wrong but it took a lot longer than this XD

instead of using masks and the paint brush wouldnt it just be easier to erase the blurred layer

[W0Ndr3y]

@jt663 its easier to repair mask with brush, then have troubles with misserased areas

[jt663]

@W0Ndr3y ahh thanks

[TutorVidCom]

@jt663 Erasing the layer would work too but if you wanted to bring back part of the layer at a later time you can't. Using a mask gives you more flexibility later.

[jt663]

@TutorVidCom yeah i see what you mean
