How do you "smear" colors across a certain area? To make backgrounds look natural.

Okay, so here's the final product:

Once again BIG THANKS to zeuspaul for helping me out with making an awesome 2nd panel! Smile

I roughly based my design on this:

Anyway, here's a quick joke explanation to the GIMP community:

The game referenced is HoMM3 (Heroes of Might and Magic III). There are different factions and different Heroes in the game. Dace is a Minotaur specialist hero. We can see Dace in the 1st panel has just seen something shiny in a briefcase. Dace responds to the Minotaur that they are happy with what they see. In the 4th panel we see a really unhappy army where everyone has mis-moraled (skipped their turn to move / act) except the Skeleton and the Minotaur. Long story short: The Minotaur's special ability is that their minimum morale is always +1. The Skeletons are undead hence they are not affected by morale, but since every of the other units is from a different faction plus they have a skelly boy in the same army their morale is shattered. Like actually -3 total (which is the cap), it gives each of them a 25% chance to skip their turn. Now of course I gave all of them the negative morale animation in a slighly different stage of the animation for comedic effect.

Oh, quick edit: The Artifact in the briefcase is supposed to give the whole army +1 morale, but yeah, it would still be -3 negative.
