While it's not super important to know about the mathematical side of blend modes, I think it's worth knowing at least enough about how each of the categories of blend modes works and why they do what they do; if for no other reason than having a starting point when you start experimenting with them in your work.

An overview of the basic blend modes and how they work from Genevieve's Design Studio: Accessible with minimal color knowledge; practical and illustration focused. https://youtu.be/kMc87hQrJd0?si=TWCB365pKSfWS8p0. (16 minutes) This creator also has a ton of free resources you can download, including a Blend Modes cheatsheet, but fair warning: you have to create an account to get them!

Borderlands fans - I am giving you a small gift because I wanted to draw this man and thought this would be a good time to use my 1000 screenshots of him fhsahioasf. So - here is Rhys' head from TFTBL from different angles.

I wanted to make Jack one but unfortunately in Tales, that guy looks mostly straight so it didn't work out. So, instead, have some compilations of my screenshot of Rhys' expressions I liked while looking through all these ihfofsahios

Enjoy <3
