Great tutorial! I do sometimes need the reminder that I don't need to put down a gazillion layers in a colouring book to get a good result. Thanks for sharing your process
Hi Queen...great video, thank you! I just (today) pulled out my Polys to finish swatching them as a break from the Kerby picture, so the timing on this was perfect for me! These are both gorgeous blends, thank you for listing the colors in the notes. I find the dark-to-light more visually appealing - I think that's what Ryan does mostly and one of the reasons I like his art so much. As always, I learn so much from watching your techniques - the commentary is so helpful too!
Thanks so much for the watch! I’m glad you found it useful. I tend to switch back and forth based on what I’m coloring, especially with these pencils. If I’m coloring something that doesn’t have a lot of texture, the light base and build up is more workable. If you come in too hot with the darks using oil based pencils, it can be real rough to smooth edges out. It’s much easier to work dark to light with Prismas. But…flip side, if I’m coloring something like tree branches where I want a lot of those details to be in the final result, it does work better putting your darks in first. Really just all about your vision for the final piece.
Thanks so much for the kind words and the sub. The Mythographic books can be a little intimidating, but there are so many to choose from and once you get into them it gets a little easier. ❤️

I too have to remind myself that I don’t need to layer myself to wrist injury. Thanks for the watch! ❤️🥰
Excellent beginning tutorial on using Polychromos!

@@QueenofFlannelColors i am tempted to pick up the Magical Earth coloring book that you were using!
@@kp-ew1bn It’s a fun book 😃
This is good material for someone like me eagerly awaiting my own polychromos.

What type of sharpener do you use to sharpen your pencils to such a sharp point?
@@beverleyquirke5614 I use an AFMAT electric sharpener for 6-12mm diameter pencils :)
