Invert: unchecked

Brightness: 0

Contrast: 0

Texture Each Tip: unchecked

Mode: Subtract

Paint one color at 100%. Change the scale to 90% and paint over the first color with a new color. The scale change shifts the texture so that it does not align with the first color thus allowing the bottom color to show through the spaces of the second color.

There are many other options and and variations. Have fun experimenting. Here are some of my experiments painting with Adobe Photoshop. http://www.scottefranson.com/?s=digital+painting
