Amazing work Wes! Merry Christmas! As my gift I have for you few tips form of my own work process after using those brushes for few weeks now: - At first, I turn off pen pressure when I'm painting main shapes, so it is easier to just make blocks of them (specially darkest shadows and lightest light). But it is only first phase, it takes less than few minutes. - In brush preset menu I change opacity from deafult curve to simple curve from bottom left to top right; it is first one out eight typycal curves to pick above the chart (I use mainly memileo 360light Knife PHOTO-D). Thanks to that, painting with almost no pressure (when all weight on tablet is weight of a pen you barely hold), it is pure and easy blending without switching to some blend brush. - After merging basic shapes and basic phases of rendering I change brush tip to "scrathes_rough" (it is in deafult krita resourcres) or similar: that gives good impression of real brush hair, it is especially good to render hair or furr. Great option at final rendering, bad at the begining. [After changing brush tip to original paintly look, something is off, but it is resolved after clicking on "Reload Original preset"] That is my favorite tip: after discovering it helped me a lot with edge control. - When it comes to hard edges (like between eye white and skin), where I don't wont blending properties of those brushes, I use "Wet textured soft" or any other from those "violet" brushes you use as well (many others will sufice as well). And here is a tip for everybody else who might have some technical issues with those brushes: - Some of the brushes are lagging after each stroke, probably because of my quite old laptop and its graphic card, but I resolve that problem by turning off "pattern" in brush preset menu. Then it lags only for half a second after a stroke and its fine then, it may lag again after changing size or truning eraser mode, but it is tolerable. If you change brush tip to any other than memileo brushes all lagging is gone. [If I feel it lacks canvas pattern I add overlay layer with canvas texture]

Merry Christmas! These are fantastic tips for using the Memileo pack, I will definitely mention a few of them (with credit to you, of course!) in the Memileo "breakdown" video!
