By the God Emperor, after watching dozens of videos on the subject I finally found one explaining how wet blanding work! Thank you so much.

[Totally_not_a_Zaku]

after years of searching.... finally i found an amazing blending tutorial

[samsellner]

This is the best explanation of wet blending I've seen so far. Most miss the part about blending using the belly of the brush!

[ViperOptix]

This is by far the best guide to wet blending I have seen, I am keen to give this a try now. Thank you!

[Pumpavius]

I believe this is the first time I see a content creator talking about wet bending and actually pointing out that you need to apply the preasure on the BELLY of the brush, not the tip. That is super important, thank you Lyla!

[gustavmalm]

That's some great tips, I don't think anyone else has actually explained that you should put more pressure on the belly when blending 😊

[funchick]

Wet blending is one of my favorite techniques, but some of these techniques were still new to me!

[dadwrestler]

Straight forward and very thorough, fantastic video and tutorial. thank you

[stinx]

I think I'm going to give wetblending another go. Thanks for the painting lesson and the tip to use primed bases to practice with

[willday]

Great tutorial. Thanks for more solid content.

[LukeSteichen]

Definitely one of the most beginner friendly lessons on wet blending I have ever watched! Thanks for adding your amazing voice to the hobby!

[Gooch]

You have explained this process better then any other content creator Iv seen. Thank you, il need to start practicing!

[bear_brush]

49 Seconds... 49 SECONDS! And I understood why I struggle. That is a record. Thanks so much! Can't wait to get painting again tonight!

[keiramaize]

Still trying to learn this technique, but following your lead, ive learned so much!

[clintseppowitz]

It is the BELLY!! i was so struggling with wet blending without knowing why. Now there is at least the chance that I not simply suck.

[Timberjac]

An ultra-concentrated master class. Thank you so much.

[WildWilly]

The tip about pressure on belly of the brush was so useful!

[MiniModelPaint]

It took me years to figure this technique out, and just 7 minutes to understand what my brush was actually doing. Thank you for explaining it so succinctly, and Happy Birthday!

[MrHoogoos]

This video is going to be watched about a dozen times so I can finally understand how to wet blend correctly. Thank you!

[jessicaschoen]

Oh look, I'm revisiting this video just before running a class this weekend on this technique! Thank you, as always, Lyla, for having great explanations that I can use and share!
