Random Pirate (Blending Practice)

I've been trying to find an efficient way to blend colors in digital art. I'm currently using Krita and most of the youtube tutorials I've watched suggest a specific brush and settings in photoshop. I'm not really sure where to find these settings in Krita so I just went and improvised with all the tools available for me to use. Far from perfect but atleast, I think, I somehow improved.
