Painting a Portrait (airbrush tutorial)

This video is for anyone interested in learning how to paint a portrait. For this painting, I am using an Iwata micron airbrush and createx illustration colors. This acrylic paint allows you to soft erase highlights using an ink eraser. I am also using shields made by art tool (by Iwata) to paint in sharp defined lines. No templates or stencils are used; they are not needed. Unlike oil painting, airbrushing works best with small amounts of paint. Less is more! Work slowly and build the values up gradually.

If you work on this one, best of luck! Leave any questions in the comment section so that I can get back to you. Thanks for watching.
