The one I used had a bit of texture to it, but square brush should work fine, as long as you erase with airbrush / soft round brush (that's what creates the gradient)

Naranbaatar has this workflow where he uses a smudging brush as an almost sort of hatching-tool, it results in a smooth gradient but with a nice texture to it

(This is the workflow that I used to add the super-saturated shadow)
1. Hard round brush
2. Smudge in the direction of the form so that the gradient covers both sides
3. Erase the edges using soft round brush (but not too much because then you lose the details)

Or just go to step 2 if you aren't trying to add another value into the painting

Keep in mind, Naranbaatar repeats this process many times to get a fine gradient (while still keeping the underlying forms); it's like a very gradual form of hatching in a way (that still results in a gradient).
