At its core, gradienting is a method in the building process that adds detail to otherwise bland surfaces. In the past before recent gradient techniques were developed there was a over-reliance on depth, or a use of haphazard 'splatter' texturing to create interest. In recent years however, an increasingly greater emphasis is placed on reducing depth and excessive structural detail in favour of realistically rendered gradients. The purpose of this guide is to inform the reader on how this technique is achieved.
