    I love the fact that you mentioned how other TH-camrs do little by little in detail. I paint exactly like you, I just call myself The Messy Painter now because I rarely see anyone paint full coverage at a time. This was validation lol

    That was so detailed. I always had doubt what are highlighted areas, how to give highlights, how to blend and all. You explained it so well. I felt like you're doing it in real time with no editing in between. But when you said you took 3 hours, I stopped breathing. A lot of patience. It definitely gives results.

    • @ruth_ism7355

    Thanks for your tutorial, I watched several times, along with other videos on achieving dark tones, your approach was the easiest to follow, I used your method with some slight modification (my photo reference was of darker tones than yours) and I am very pleased with the results, thanks again for sharing, I am still learning at 65 years of age and enjoy painting.

  • @JustASorcerer
    @JustASorcerer 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2
