Wouldn't Channel context, Add to Selection and Edit | Save to Channel do the trick?

No i tried and the scales in the "Scales" channel were not selected. Just the text outline. By blending i was able to make a perfect copy of the scales, blurred 3d and original channel layers. :bigthup

I have no idea why the scales were not added as a selection.

I see what you mean, Saulgoode's blend channels script adds a lot more options.

It is a valuable addition to the script-fu arsenal.
