I'm so glad someone made a video like this. He explains it waaaay better than I ever could ;_;

Photoshop program, but you can modify it to make it work for even freeware like GIMP. Perhaps I can help, or someone else more savvy can in the comments below if you're stuck.

PS: Forgive my recent absences here ;_;

More realistic foggy/hazy effect

This is highly unexperimented with on my end, so this may only work in some instances.
Example:
Before - [link]
After - [link]

DO THIS LAST, AFTER you finish your manip/editing!

Flatten everything and duplicate it.

On the top, duplicated layer: Filter > Blur > Surface Blur
_{Radius: I usually leave this at 100, but please, experiment first for best results. The higher, the better, I think, because when it's left low, it's so weak that it's used by some to smooth out skin in their photos.
Threshold: This one I leave at 50 - 70 levels. This controls how much fog there is and the thickness of it.}
At this point, it's up to you. Play with opacity and maybe even greyscale the duplicated, blurred layer when lowering the opacity.

Now, if any of you keep submitting your render > clouds fog, I'll cut you.

Teasing.

If nothing else, here is another way to add the thick kind of fog: [link]

Video tutorial by Matt Kohr, meant for painting but useful for any artist using this software. [link]

My jaw hit the desk when I saw this, tbh XD
