Graphics help <gimp>

Post by Merker »

Currently, I need help to improve my graphics.

That's Bhutan, I didn't get around to making the borders and names because I need help with layers.

I want to know if there is some sort of layers organiser and if anyone can help my get some new style apart from the opacified brush.

Layers can be managed by the dockable window.

Windows--> Dockable Dialogs --> Layers.

Gimp has a good guide here
You could have best results with Photoshop (a bit more skill required)
