: How to create an (over)spray effect (in gimp)? How to create an overspray effect? I tried fading out the selection and fill it with one color on a background layer and tried different brushes

Another method:


Make a circle selection
Bucket-fill with color
Select>Invert
Filter>Noise>Spread... and give the maximum extent of the "spill"




You can also use Select>Feather to blur the selection a bit to avoid the sharp edge:

You can ask GIMP questions here. Here's a super easy method.


Fill a circle with red, on its own layer
Select > None
Duplicate the layer
Apply some Gaussian blur to the top layer
Set the layer mode to "Dissolve"
