I am new to learning pixel art and trying to study from examples, such as in the image below: I would like to understand what tools exist to simplify the shade/gradient transition effect below (rather than manually shifting the shade for each pixel). Looking at a given top to bottom strip such the central vertical brown line a transition effect of each pixel going from dark to light and back to dark again - is there a tool/brush/add on that can automate this?
As it would seem quite hard work to change each pixel for a big image, or am I thinking of this the wrong way?
So far I have researched the use of shading tool in aseprite, which only allows you to shift between three colours, the gradient tool only seems to work with paint bucket, the blur tool sometimes has this effect but is random pot luck.
many thanks
