Thanks Neil! I think that this is a technique that I unconsciously borrowed from the airbrushing way of painting. With airbrush, sometimes artists at first sketch the illustration in black&white, and then they use color filters to properly add tones (that happens a lot when they paint with inks or transparent colors, that for obvious reason can't cover at all dark basecoat, so they at first have to paint with white -that is very covering- and then paint over it the proper red/yellow/whatever color they want) u__u I use this way of painting because I'm not super talented, so I find more comfortable to focus at first on light/dark contrast, using desaturated colors, and then I use inks and filters to add saturation and obtain the result I want! In specific, however, in rough texture like leather, stones etc, I think that it's also interesting to alternate filters and desaturated colors: this way you obtain different layers of hues and tones, achieving more interesting and realistic results u__u
I thank you as usual, Guillaume, but I assure you that it's not so difficult as it may seem ^^ give it a try, of course the first times you need to get the hang of making tiny dots, but it's only a matter of experience u__u I'm self-taught and I have not a particular artistic talent, so everything you see in my videos, is within everyone's reach ;)
Very nice!
Perfect time was just finishing up some rebels from Star Wars legion this will be perfect for leather straps and packs
Grande Matte come sempre! un abbraccio
