Is he truly back now? More great stuff! Something fun to try would be oil paints anytime you would wetblend. Even when trying to do it incomplete/poorly on purpose like this, the extra working time and easier blending makes them really fantastic to use.

[duckchickenduck]

looks like a great technique to build up some natural texture in the leather, much nicer than the scratchy highlight style I normally try!

I'd've never thought to tint black with red like that

[caseyfrechette]

Nice way to get some ez texture, I suppose you can futz with the grayscale sketch til you get it how you want without stressing about ruining a bunch of prior steps. Thanks for another great vid Kujo! Now to see if I can resist the temptation to over blend it haha

"If you're bad at wet blending then you're at an advantage"

My time has come.

Splooge! is that a technical term? I always thought it was the noise made when a campervan hits a land sturgeon!

[ZerCrow]

A perfect excuse for me to add more wet blending to my repertoire. I'm getting too comfy in the "layer, glaze, blend, repeat" zone.

would you say that scale inks are the best to use? I've just started using an airbrush and have been looking at a few different inks and not sure which would be the best to get for my money.
