    In this tutorial We will learn how to enhance our Renders so that they have a darker more shady look, and that gradient like fill.


    First Open Your Render (Pic). I will be using a render from here by Jesse_Boi

    [​IMG]


    Go to Filter>>Blur>>Gaussian Blur


    It's all up to you on this effect, use around 3-5. I normally use 5 but I wouldn't recommend using more than 5.


    Now you should have something like this.



    [​IMG]


    Ok, now go to Edit>>Fade Gaussian Blur


    Set it to 100% and put the blending mode on Hard Light.


    Now You're Done!
