that was awesome! every time I watch you do your stuff I am like, "okay what is he gonna do with the sponge?.... OMG, that's genius!" That's what my thoughts are on literally every tool you use. I don't know if everyone else thinks that but I do.
This is very good over all. One thing that stands out is that things are out of proportion. For example, the little tree in the front is very small and dark. The things in the back are more illuminated and detailed, you can even see the twigs and roots of the trees. Otherwise, I was very impressed and it was definitely a learning experience. Thanks so much for sharing.
I am always amazed watching your videos Sir!. I have recently started spray painting about 3 weeks ago. I would like to create rocks the way you do it's amazing. Once I get a tad better I will show some of my work and perhaps you could give some pointers ;0) And thank you again for another amazing video.
Cool idea! I actually thought the painting looked good upside down too. Like, at 5:03. Where the "treetops" were like moss, and the moss/bushes were the treetops. And the the white part would be the sky, or it could be painted another colour:-)
Good job on the painting, but make the front of the trees darker, hand paint the waterfalls to make them more realistic and make bigger branches by hand to offset the smaller branches,everywhere and make them more lifelike. It's good to use what u know about regular painting on stuff like this.
Wow Brandon... another GREAT video! It is cool and wet here so I haven't "dug in" yet... but I will. I am curious about what kind of sponge you are using in this one? In one shot it looked like a thicker typical car washing type sponge, and then I decided it may be a Sea Sponge ( like I use for interior design wall painting techniques) Thanks for sharing... you give the best detailed tutorials!
Beautiful work. One thing I was wondering about is - which type of paint is the best to use? I'm in Australia and have been using "all purpose enamel" as Rustoleum is not available here. Would this work if I tried cutting into it with my knife as you're doing up there?
Hey, I was trying to get the trees but the paint just wouldnt come off as easy. I was using a knife though. Wanted to ask you what the cardboard you are using and if the palatte knife the key to get the paint off for the trees. Super work brandon :)
Dineshka Aluwihare If your'e having trouble getting the paint off it could be because of several different reasons. 1. Your paint has dried: If this is the case, simply go over the paint again (not to heavily) with a clear coat. You can find a clear paint with the normal colors where you buy your spray cans, and you should buy the one that says "glossy clear paint" or "glossy protective enamal" 2. You are using the wrong side of the poster board: I have seen many people make this mistake. At first it seems right that you would need to paint on the ROUGH side of the poster, but that is wrong. You should paint of the GLOSSY (or smooth) side of your board. This allows the paint the be smeared, smudged and re-wet even after it dries slightly.
How did you get your waterfalls to look so blue? (Unless I missed a step) and do you ONLY use Quick Colour for your outlines? I’m spending a lot of money on Montana Gold and would love to find a cheaper but still good quality alternative. Thanks!:)
The main reason I'm commenting here is to know how you KEEP YOUR SPRAY CAN CAPS FROM CLOGGING. I use the exact type of paint you showed in this video (Rust-oleum and Rust-oleum 2x painters touch) and I'm having a terrible problem. Almost every time I go out to paint, I'm finding that 1 or more of my paint can 'caps' is clogged. I have tried soaking them overnight in various solvents (acetone and turpentine) but it didn't work. I was wondering if you have some way to simply prevent them from clogging in the first place, thank you.
yeah? well.... before i watch this vid which is showing his WHOLE arm i watched vids that had only hands and thats when i discovered he isnt a woman and btw dont ya think its unusual for a man to be so patient and paint sthing that needs so much concentration :/
