There are some that use it as a power trip, but most are just punching the time clock until something better comes along. <br /><br />That said, I also found the time lapse of the tubes of paint levitating on Legos or whatever it was quite fun, as well as the bit with the cover to Traids.<br /><br /><br />The second vanishing point was so useful but one I often try to eyeball instead of marking and therefore get wrong. I realize that I need to learn more about perspective and tones to help my drawings stretch further. <br /><br />You seem to get much more range from three colors than my early attempts have yielded. I tend to paint from pans rather than tubes, and wonder if that leads to some of the results I find? Or if I need to soften my pans earlier in the process? Ideas? When I glaze I tend to get much deeper colors but it takes time and patience.Bevanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12880159505047529060noreply@blogger.com
