However, that's a lot of work. I like to use pixel paint applications with fill bucket tools that automatically generate dithered gradients, like Deluxe Paint (Commodore Amiga/MS-DOS) and its spiritual successors Grafx2 (open source, available for all kinds of operating systems and hardware platforms, but a very closely related remake of the old late 1980s/early 1990s DPaint without any modern functions) or Cosmigo ProMotion (powerful pixel paint prog for Windows which still supports old Amiga and DOS DPaint file formats). When you fill huge parts of the image with gradients, using something like that is preferable to dithering by hand. However, you will often have to make manual adjustments, adding and removing pixels here and there, if you're trying to fill an irregular shape, or if the automatically generated flat/linear, cylindrical, or spherical gradients don't perfectly line up with the shape you're trying to create. And if your object is rather small, doing it entirely by hand is often faster and easier than using gradient fill and then having to fix it by hand.
