How To Paint Silver and Gold 

Here's a quick demonstration of my metal-painting technique. Really it is all about learning how to paint what you see, and not what you think you see. These two cylinders took around a half hour each to paint, not counting a bit of drying time in between layers. I hope you'll try this!
PS Sorry my preliminary drawings are hard to see! This is why I usually don't do them in my videos. When you draw for watercolor, you have to do it about this lightly.
