Your voice is very calming and pleasant to listen. Your explanations and guide are priceless. Your devotion and work is amazing. Thank you for sharing all this with us!
I really love how you break down something so daunting into manageable steps. With a leap of faith and your encouragement, I'm going to try my first portrait. Thanks again for what you do.
thanks Manny! Leap of faith is a great term for it. I feel like that with every painting I start as well. I'll have the reference photos and grids up on the members page later today. Best of luck with portraits!!
Waw Mark thanks so much for this lesson last time i painting was for More Than 6 mounth i was buzy with flyfishing and fly tying but waw this lesson make me wake up i will start again wish every Thing good for you you stell the best teacher thank you for everything ❤❤❤. M.S
M!! Thanks so much! Fly fishing and fly tying looks awesome- and being outdoors is the best. Happy to hear you're gonna get back into painting. Have a happy new year my friend!
This is one of my many favorites of yours. This video combines so much of what you have previously demonstrated. Also your commentary keeps things on an even keel for me as you explain mistakes and pacing the work. You’re presentation gives me confidence. Exceptionally informative and supportive. Thanks for all you share. Happy Holidays!!!!!
Absolute newbie at all this, grabbed some stuff and am watching lots of stuff, coming from a fine art approach I love your stuff. I am stumped by one aspect though - I cannot use an eraser to remove paint like you can….
thanks. A few things are needed- an easily erasable paint (createx illustration), an aggressive stick eraser (mars razor or 7058b), and a VERY smooth/non-absorbent surface (synthetic/yupo paper or prepared canvas). hope this helps!
@@theartworkshop The bloodlind and lifeline colors are Tertiary colors so they are not highly saturated pure pigments like the normal illustration colors. There is some difference in binder, Not all of them are transparents. They were designed for monster mask painters etc. Where that group of people prefer to use paint straight out of the bottle and normal colors would be far high in chroma for what they are doing with them.
Hi, I am a viewer just like you, he explained in a past video, the reason for having the cover off, it is quicker for him to clear a blockage in the nozzle by pulling the needle back instead of keep taking the cover off🏴
@@stuartmcintosh8275 im a product designer its my daily work and i made a lot of parts but i see the back end spray limiting options are poor designs which come lose very often. basically those functions are useless.. just like the cut out in the back end so you can pull back the needle while the trigger does the same thing. the only time when something blocks in my airbrush is when i encounter tip dry and i fix that with my finger tips wiping off the paint. the first time when i bought my expensive takumi i was not happy. the product is made out of cheap metals and has tolerance issues everywhere. i find the back end useful because the needle guides in the trigger spring adjuster and the tolerance/size difference in the needle and hole of the trigger adjuster is really bad. when u have the back end cover off and you rest the needle on your hand the needle can bend like 1mm and moves freely in the space of the trigger action adjuster but of course this wont all matter that much because the needle is guided in the front nozzle and packing as well but still if u just keep your needle stuck in the front with your finger and your going to move the back of the needle in circles your needle tip in the front will rotate. even when i just trigger my takumi for example the needle in the back looks like sterring a spoon in my soup! i guess its time for some airbrush upgrades. just wanted to know why he wasnt using the back end because im making really cool back ends as well. thanks for the feedback!
