I don't know much about art so I picked up a manga art book and started trying to copy the source images that show you how to do the thing step by step I want to be better to draw my own stuff but I figure this is a decent enough incentive to will myself to do something

 Did this at a drink & paint type event. Not bad, even though the crummy paint and brushes fought me the entire time

I haven't painted anything that large in probably.....man I don't know, 15 years? The entire time I was trying to use what I've learned, but being constrained to 2 hours kind of rushed me, but, in a good way? The yellow was too transparent, but I didn't want to mix it with white because I didn't want it to be pastel (we had R/B/Y and W/B) and I didn't really feel like I had time to mix the paints with the tools I had, and the brushes were, they were really bad, and then I was unfamiliar with the paint itself, so changing its viscosity on a large scale was also unfamiliar. It looked like they just squirted a large amount on the palette, so it looked chunky, and the blue thinned out enough, but then I needed to cover a lot of ground and didn't want there to be too much obvious brush strokes. I also was going for purple and completely forgot I needed to lighten the mix I was doing to get that effect...  , so I just went with that. the gold metallic I could not for the life of me, make it less "gloopy", it was so thick I just said gently caress it and started loading the brush up and dabbing it instead of stroking with it.I was more familiar than the gf with acrylics (she was complaining the entire time wishing it was oil paints) and the entire time I was cursing under my breath "I wish I had my nice brushes and some of my paints at home, I could do this so much better with those"  The person leading the event offered everyone some glitter spray to help seal it and make it glittery, but I think if I did that I'd mask the cat and moon off, then spray the sky exclusively. Maybe once it dries GreenBuckanneer fucked around with this message at 06:09 on Oct 28, 2022 |
