Brush Tool
Good evening

Can I use the paint brush without having different scales of the same colour?

I would like to keep the paint brush smooth but the problem is that when the same area is painted twice, the colour in such area darkens.

Is it possible to lock the paint brush to one stroke of paint? If an area is painted, is it possible to automatically skip that area when painting?

In other words, is it possible to brush only once over a given particular area?

Please see the attached image.

I hope you do understand my problem.

Re: Brush Tool
I'm not sure I fully understand what you're trying to do here, so correct me if I've got it wrong. What I think is happening is this: you're painting at a low opacity, and so when you go over the same brush strokes it's building up the strength and making the effect darker.

Try painting with 100% opacity, and then changing the opacity of the entire layer (as opposed to the strength of the brush) to get the visual effect you want.
