How do i blend colours?

[Julio]

hello everyone, i have an issue.

ive tried blending as a pose to layering and im pretty good at it. the thing is, i took about and hour to blend a sword(fiery lava colour). i dont even know how to blend! all i did was paint with watered paint on one half and then painted watered paint on the other half and sorta merged them together.

is there a professional way to do this, and im not asking for extreme layering, just blending. i know it can be done, im just not sure how.


so ya any professional painters id be glad to hear your tips.

and who might that be? I'm not sure that any of us considers ourselves professional painters (especially not myself).

if you want my advice look here:
