🚨update on the Crackle paste🚨 Thanks to my lovely subscribers, a few suggestions for it are: -use it to make things look antique -cosplay -add it as a frame without a fame -building models and replicas -abstract art -paint pouring
Omg I’m actually 5th in one of my fav youtuber’s comments! I’m soo happy I’m early and I love your videos it must take really long thank you so much for uploading another awsome vid!
I'd use the crackle paint for painting a cottage or building. It looks like a stone house or castle to me. Then a bunch of greenery around it 👌 also I need all these supplies!
Always keep a small spritzer bottle full of water in your painting supplies for acrylics. You just spritz the painting every now and then and it prevents it from drying before you are done painting.
also make your own wet palette, use wet sponges or of those absorbent reusable towels wipes and put a parchment paper on top. now put your paints there and the parchment paper keeps them fresh and wet without watering them down.
My mom was obsessed with the cracking paint back in the late 90’s and early 2000’s. She used it on her DIY home decor crafting projects and on existing wooden furniture to revitalize them. It’s still prominently used in the “primitive inspired” house aesthetic. I received the 20 year old kitchen table and chairs that was in my childhood home as a hand me down and it still has the cracked paint product on all of the legs 😂
I wish more people knew about slow drying medium for acrylic. That’s basically what open acrylics have in them. Golden sells a slow drying medium called retarder and you can add a small bit of that into any acrylic paint you already have even acrylic gouache and you have slow drying acrylic paint without spending the money on whole tubes. And frisket is the same as masking fluid just make sure you get the removable kind
Artist's Loft has acrylic retardant that works like a charm as well. The only thing is that it slightly changes the dry "texture"? Like, I notice that it makes my paint glossier, but I honestly don't mind for the miracle that it makes my mixed colors last longer. I'm genuinely surprised that Rae has never heard of acrylic retardant lmao
@@sexytrashbag5315 hahah yes 😅 I think its root Latin word means to make slow/ hinder, like slowing the drying time or hindering it from drying so fast. The slur probably came from the same root word?
Friskit is masking fluid, besides typical art uses- you can also use it on the skin around your nails/cuticles before you paint your nails so you don’t get nail polish on your skin
Okay but can we appreciate how Rae does her makeup and eyeshadow beautifully for us every video? Like it’s amazing. She’s so beautiful with and without!
So I use Frisket and slow drying acrylic regularly. To answer your questions why the slow drying acrylic is not used more is that it's more expensive and it takes a major learning curve to get use it. Because if you're not careful, you can easily mess up your painting. Also Rae acting like we all havent reworn clothes during the pandemic
GOLDEN's OPEN line costs the same as their regular paints. GOLDEN as a brand is more expensive than pretty much everyone else, but they're sufficiently high quality that it's usually worth it. The learning curve for OPEN paints is also worth it, it's definitely trippy at first, but once you're used to it they can be incredibly versatile and just feel more intuitive to paint with than regular acrylics.
@replicanna I don't know if I have ever had a bottle last a year. I use it a lot. But I have used cheaper versions of masking fluid and I am sure they are all comparable to a certain extent
My mom used a crackle additive to make my vanity look older. I loved it. It was very much my 14 year old self's style. Not so much anymore, but I was so happy with that piece of furniture.
when I started painting with acrylics I saw a video guide in which they mentioned that there are products to mix acrylic and make it faster or slower to dry . That would help, mix the product with your preferred brand of acrylics to achieve a desired result 😊
My immediate reaction to the crackle paint was for desert landscapes, broken glass, frost or crystals, and a really detailed close up of dried skin ❤️ Haven't seen it used before either but I feel like using a thinner layer could have different/easier results
I use a regular brush but i coat it in soap(i have some of those brush cleaner soap pot thingies so after i use the masking fluid my brush will be perfectly clean) so it creates a barrier but i can still get brush strokes
based on the exterior, that looks like an older michaels (the way its built + the logo) and the interior tiles and lower ceiling make me think the same. feels like a nostalgic place to step into just from the video alone lol
@@shamsumaru7751 Really make sure that you don't want to use that brush for anything else. Once that stuff gets into the heel of the brush, or lower belly, forget it. I made that mistake decades ago! It's a stupid mistake that you don't forget - I used a sable, you tend to remember expensive mistakes!
For the frisket you're not actually supposed to shake it because it can cause air bubbles; like the ones you saw. It's more of a rolling upward motion you're supposed to do? Like, imagine you had a liquid in a cup and wanted to stir it but didn't have a stirrer so move it in circles. Kasey golden did a great video on frisket/masking fluid comparing different ones available & which ones work best in case you are interested in that. I can also imagine crackle paste to be a good scales base for people painting stuff like dragons or lizard sculptures?
Tip: don't use nice brushes for the frisket! The latex builds up and ruins the brushes. Use either on old brush, a you don't care about, or rubber brushes made for it.
Golden open acrylics are SO fantastic! They also have slow dry medium through a bunch of different brands that give the same effect when mixed with your normal acrylics. Another obscure art supply you might like is also by golden! Mica flakes :D Super shiny! Suspended in acrylic medium! Great for impasto techniques.
Your liquid mask (Frisket) can be used for sooo many creative things, just be careful to pull back on itself to not damage the paper. You can also use it as a mask for surface etching with a Paasche Air Erasure on glass metal etc. for free hand designs, Bonus: you can use the Air Erasure to remove ink from paper or etch the ink off of soda cans etc.
Hey Rae, I remember using crackle paste YEARS AGO to decorate some plant pots, sold a few as well! Was interesting seeing all these unusual art supplies!
The crackle paste is such a cool technique! The texture reminds me of snake or reptile skin, it would be awesome to paint a lizard with that stuff!! A super colourful chameleon or a realistic snake would be cool af.
Love that golden open, honestly. my trouble with oils has been inconsistent dry times--hard to know *when* it's going to dry or how long it's going to take to be 'ready' (and when it takes a very long time invariably there's cat fur or dust stuck in it). The open acrylics stay workable for several hours, but are *always* completely dry to the touch within 48 hours. Perfect.
Crackle paint is very often used in multi media projects and craft projects like ageing a wooden box, ATCs, and multi media board art. Or, of course, just a painting with a cool texture! Loved that yellow! Could paint a stunning poppies painting over it, in a gentle, watery style. The crackles would give a real atmosphere to the piece, evoking timelessness and history. I love the crackle effect, as long as it’s not over done and used on everything. There are many amazing surface effects, like patina and verdigris, which are available. Check them out! I’m in UK so can’t recommend a store, but I think you could have great fun learning all these techniques 😊 As always, your art examples for the charcoal were stunning! Hugs from over the pond
Can I just say that you are one of the most amazing artists that I've ever seen?!?! I actually don't really watch your channel for the supply reviews as much as I do to set the hacks and "my oh my," your finished works of art ❤❤❤❤ they are STUNNING!!!
*to be more specific* in love with your makeup, your teeth/smile, your personality, your artistic abilities, and overall everything about u, lmk where i can pickup an exact copy/clone girlfriend of u 🤕 _thanks_ 😇
I love your videos: love your comments and the way you just jump in and go for it! Crackle paste is used in mixed media a lot to add background texture. If you go over the cracks with a thin coat of brown or other dark color ink it highlights the cracks and gives a great grungy look. It's a Tim Holtz staple technique.
The crackle paste is used occasionally in model and diorama making and some times used on the bases of miniatures. I think it would be super cool to see you do a painting using the crackle paste as the focus!
One thing i have been waiting patiently to see is a video based ONLY on dollar tree items you find good, great you would reccomend for low budget artists !
When the notification for the video popped up on my iPad, I read it as I *tasted* art supplies… Visions of Rae licking crayons and watercolours instantly sprang to mind 😝
Woah that crackle paste looks so cool! I imagine using it to create interesting textures using a palette knife in sort of an impasto-style, and adding colour on top.
The crackle paint is very popular when it comes to crafting more than painting as far as I know. I remember first discovering crackle paint when researching how to decorate wooden boxes. I remember watching quite a few tutorials and sometimes they used the crackle paint to get some textures to make it look old. I'm pretty sure you could use it for painting as well if you wanted to apply some texture to a part of your paiting.
It was fashionable in the 80's for handcrafts. I did a ceramic egg with a transfer but the paste I used was clear to let see through the transfer. When dry I applied brown oleo paint on top and removed with a paper towel to enhance the cracks
For the crackle paste I guess it's mostly for texture. So for instance if u were making a diarama and wanted to create a dry, barren landscape you could use it for that. Or you could use it as texture for 3D models such as bark or cliff faces.
For the crackle paint there are 2 ideas I have 1) that paint seems like it'd be absolutely PERFECT for recreating old Renaissance art or 2) you could highlight the cracks with something like watercolor which could make a really cool background or just abstract art
I was genuinely so excited about those charcoal erasers because that's my favorite medium to use but I honestly think malleable erasers work better for that kind of stuff. I've been using mine since 2016 and haven't had to replace it, yet so that's a plus!
Acrylics are super versatile. Acrylic mediums are used to alter acrylic paint ie. medium + pigments. These paints are available in various medium like ink, soft body, heavy body and slow drying medium. The only thing that’s need to be remembered is once water is evaporated, it will set immediately. So keep on misting the paint if you don’t want it to set so quickly, put your palette inside a sealed container with wet paper towels on the bottom to prevent moisture from escaping.
The paste you used, I like to use it on my dioramas. It makes really good desert scenes. Always on sidewalks. I'm just sharing with you on how I use it.
That crackle paste with mica added would make a beautiful faux leather for book covers and junk journals💜💜 aaaaanndd it would be kinda cool for steampunk crafts too 😮
I kept waiting for the weird,but instead got a list of products I often use for little interesting effects!That said...That did not stop me from enjoying this video & ...You are always a delight to watch really
So the auto-generated captioning would occasionally say "brisket" instead of "frisket" and it was glorious. "So next I paint a thin line of brisket" Btw, frisket is one of the basic supplies for watercolor painting, I can't believe you've never heard of it!
I guess she’s used liquid latex because she knew what that was so maybe it was just because it was called “frisket.” I know what liquid latex is but I’ve never heard of frisket either lol
I’ve never heard masking fluid referred to as “frisket” so I was intrigued until she described what it’s used for 😂 and then I was like “...it’s just masking fluid?”
The crackle Paste can be used in miniature sceneries, especially when creating a outdoor scene in which you will need to do mountains or large Rock structures.
Who else loves how Michael’s smells around Christmas time?? The smell of cinnamon pinecones🥰 (also When she said Frisket I heard brisket and now I’m hungry)🤣🤣
I love that smell for the first couple of days or just walking by, but I spent years working at a Jo-Ann and let me tell you... That tasty cinnamon smell isn't so great for allergies in the long run. XD
When I was working at Hobby Lobby people bought crackle paint when they wanted to make a small piece of furniture or a decorative piece look old. They called it 'Antiquing'. I don't ever remember people saying they used it on actual canvass for painting a picture.
I think the art Sherpa likes to use that paint that dries slow. She mixes something in with her paint that causes it to dry slow too. It’s pretty cool and helpful. I don’t know if you’ve ever seen any of the art sherpas stuff but she is an amazing soul and I love to follow her tutorials. She’s also a really positive person and just really comforting so a lot of times when I am going to sleep I will put her on just because she is so comforting. My sister and I really like to do the wine and paint stuff but it’s expensive so we will follow her at home and drink and eat as much as we like while we follow her tutorials haha. :-)
The golden open acrylics are AMAZING. They have a luminosity and color vibrance like oil. But they’re water dissolvable and layer greatttt. Amazing color selection too!
You could use that crackle stuff to do what I call a relief painting. It's a painting where some of the paint is globbed on really thick on certain parts, so that you can feel the shape of the objects in the picture. It gives a nice 3D effect. I have a painting by the artist Harvey Konigsberg, called A Chair and a Sax, which is like this. It was an oil painting that he did in 1968, of a saxophone lying on a chair, on a white background. The thing I always liked about it, is how the paint on the saxophone, especially on the bell end, is applied so thick, that it sticks out so much that you can actually feel the shape of the saxophone. I think you could do something similar with that crackle stuff. If you did a picture with a lot of bright neon colors, where the things in the picture were outlined with the crackle paint, that would be really cool. Maybe a picture of people dancing or playing musical instruments or something, and the instruments would be outlined with it, so they stand out in 3D.
I only knew about crackle nail polish. But of course it’s used in painting stuff. Oh. Amsterdam makes a great acrylic paint extender that is a clear fluid that mixes in with a few drops and it’s a lot better than other mediums I’ve tried. Edit: My husband just told me that he uses crackle fluid for Warhammer paint. So much I didn’t know about 🥴🤔😃😂
There is a liquid that is slowing the drying time of acrylic you can add to any of your normal acrylics. Thanks for the work you do, I love your videos ❤
I would use the crackle paint to make a zebra or any animal because it shows lots of texture. Also, you can use crackle paint to make birch trees or regular trees!
I had this crazy idea of painting a volcano 🌋 with the crackle paint! It would come out so realistic with all the cracks and dimensions because of the crackle paint!
The fact that u r a Leo got me jumping up and down as whenever I find out that my favourite person is a Leo I get excited Also m one myself! Also love ur makeup, u look gorgeous!
The crackle paste would probably look cool if you used it with a gold or silver metallic paint (like that liquid mirror stuff). Or maybe put it on a black background and use a really colorful paint to make the cracks
For the Golden Open Acrylic paint: they are not transparent because of them being longer workable. It's just because of the pigments they used in the set you've bought. The same goes for the bright colours you've mentioned. While there are usually more fancy options for acrylic paint than for oils I won't say that that's typical to have more vibrant paintings just because one is using acrylic paint instead of oil. It's what colours you choose and what you make of it. Sure, sets, especially in the lower price range are often super bright and since many don't know how to mix colour and how to keep acrylic paint workable longer this tends to end up in more flashing paintings. However, if one dives deeper into it it is possible to achieve oil like paintings with acrylics (I had people not believing that I was using acrylic paint in my paintings when I corrected their assumption that it was made by using oil paint). Especially Golden has a great range of colours in different styles from inky fluid to real thick and a lot of mediums that help achieving amazing results. For those thinking of trying their "Open" series: they will feel super weird first. The consistency is quite unique and if you're coming from normal acrylic paint you need to learn to get patient (well, they also dry slow when it's not what you want right now and sometimes you'll need to wait a day or more to have them dried completely, depending on what you were doing). And adjust your technique: they are different and just like graphite and charcoal are similar but not the same it's the same with ordinary acrylic paint and "open" acrylic paint. Anyway: thanks for testing all of that and showing it online!
Crackle paint has been around for more than 45 yrs. I sold it in a now defunct craft supply/yarn store in Canada. And yes, the thinner the paste the finer the cracks. When I sold it, it was a thick liquid, but if you take the excess water out of it, it would probably have become a thick, fluffy produced like you have tested. "Back in the day", we used to use it for a distressed look on painted objects like a birdhouse or inexpensive furniture.
Crackle paste, Slow drying aclyrics, and magic erasers are very well known. many people in my school including me use it for projects. It's just not easily available in my country.
Hi Rae, I use crackle paste for painting desert scenes, it's gives great texture to the flat sand and dunes. I also use it for painting ceramics, vases, bowls ect. it gives a great aged effect. Enjoy your channel so much!
I think the crackling paste would be great for hyperrealistic surrealism. Like painting a hyperrealistic portrait but at one point the person just crackles and falls apart or something like that. I'd 100% use the paste for this. To me it's just going the extra mile, not just painting the crackles but creating them with this paste and giving it a nice mixed medium look.
The crackle is also used allot in mixed media and scrapbooking. I’ve seen my mom use this allot to get certain effects. I myself also use it for the bases of my miniature figures.
For the crackle paint I think you actually used it a little too thick. But yes you can have it thicker and thinner to add texture. Once dry you can add glazed layers over it too to give extra dimension 🎨💜🥰
Crackly paste is so much fun! Had to use it for school (we were learning about textures) but I used it for a personal piece for skulls and it looked so cool!
I was always taught not to shade with black, so every time Rae says people use a ton of black I look at all my leftover black supplies all baffled like, "really??? but these are only for accents and lineart????" 😂😂 hooray for different approaches
🚨update on the Crackle paste🚨
Thanks to my lovely subscribers, a few suggestions for it are:
-use it to make things look antique
-cosplay
-add it as a frame without a fame
-building models and replicas
-abstract art
-paint pouring
I love your videos ❤️😍
AAAA I LOVE YOU ❤

Could you do the antique one as I think it would challenge your artistic talent as creating antique art is a difficult thing to do
Omg I’m actually 5th in one of my fav youtuber’s comments! I’m soo happy I’m early and I love your videos it must take really long thank you so much for uploading another awsome vid!
Crackle paste is huge in modeling work. Makes giving life and texture to terrain pieces incredibly easy.
Just abt to comment this
Ooooh thx
I thought you meant models for designer clothes and runway so I was confused at first😂
Also work fine if you want to give picture frames an really old look (or paintings).
Haha yeah I was just about to say I crackle so many of my miniature bases. And some miniatures.
I'd use the crackle paint for painting a cottage or building. It looks like a stone house or castle to me. Then a bunch of greenery around it 👌 also I need all these supplies!

The crack paste is great for miniature work like dry land ( drought ), old plaster walls or concrete floors.
Friskit is masking fluid, besides typical art uses- you can also use it on the skin around your nails/cuticles before you paint your nails so you don’t get nail polish on your skin
That’s such a good ide!
Use it with the Real Holo™ and then peel, peel, peel like it's no big deal.

You can also coat your brush in dish soap! It works every time for me! But I always use my super cheap brushes just in case lol
i find using ruling pens for the liquid latex/masking fluid good for small details & easy clean up
I use a regular brush but i coat it in soap(i have some of those brush cleaner soap pot thingies so after i use the masking fluid my brush will be perfectly clean) so it creates a barrier but i can still get brush strokes

oh p.s. also your eyebrows 😭 and sense of humor 🥺🤓
I love your videos: love your comments and the way you just jump in and go for it! Crackle paste is used in mixed media a lot to add background texture. If you go over the cracks with a thin coat of brown or other dark color ink it highlights the cracks and gives a great grungy look. It's a Tim Holtz staple technique.
Rae's the kind of freind u need when you're in a bad mood and she just cheers u up
The crackle paste is used occasionally in model and diorama making and some times used on the bases of miniatures.
I think it would be super cool to see you do a painting using the crackle paste as the focus!
Rae your makeup game is just on point as your art!!!! We would love to see you do a makeup tutorial some day💖
One thing i have been waiting patiently to see is a video based ONLY on dollar tree items you find good, great you would reccomend for low budget artists !
These weird art supply videos are my favourite. You test them so we don't have to!
Ok can we talk about the intro for a second lmao
When the notification for the video popped up on my iPad, I read it as I *tasted* art supplies… Visions of Rae licking crayons and watercolours instantly sprang to mind 😝
Okay but that lighting with your green eyeshadow is dope 🔥
Thanks!!!
For once the truth is told
Woah that crackle paste looks so cool! I imagine using it to create interesting textures using a palette knife in sort of an impasto-style, and adding colour on top.
This is kinda off topic but your makeup and nails look soo good 🤩🤩
I will definitely be trying out that frisket supply 😊 have a great day!!
The crackle paint is very popular when it comes to crafting more than painting as far as I know. I remember first discovering crackle paint when researching how to decorate wooden boxes. I remember watching quite a few tutorials and sometimes they used the crackle paint to get some textures to make it look old. I'm pretty sure you could use it for painting as well if you wanted to apply some texture to a part of your paiting.
It was fashionable in the 80's for handcrafts. I did a ceramic egg with a transfer but the paste I used was clear to let see through the transfer. When dry I applied brown oleo paint on top and removed with a paper towel to enhance the cracks
im lowkey surprised you havent heard or tried any of these! masking fluid especially is very popular amongst watercolor artists
For the crackle paste I guess it's mostly for texture. So for instance if u were making a diarama and wanted to create a dry, barren landscape you could use it for that. Or you could use it as texture for 3D models such as bark or cliff faces.
For the crackle paint there are 2 ideas I have 1) that paint seems like it'd be absolutely PERFECT for recreating old Renaissance art or 2) you could highlight the cracks with something like watercolor which could make a really cool background or just abstract art
Ooh shimmery paints and metallics
Ooo I'd love to see you use the slow drying acrylics for a painting!
I was genuinely so excited about those charcoal erasers because that's my favorite medium to use but I honestly think malleable erasers work better for that kind of stuff. I've been using mine since 2016 and haven't had to replace it, yet so that's a plus!
Acrylics are super versatile. Acrylic mediums are used to alter acrylic paint ie. medium + pigments. These paints are available in various medium like ink, soft body, heavy body and slow drying medium. The only thing that’s need to be remembered is once water is evaporated, it will set immediately. So keep on misting the paint if you don’t want it to set so quickly, put your palette inside a sealed container with wet paper towels on the bottom to prevent moisture from escaping.
No one:
Rae: *being emotionally funny in the intro*
Ikr
Yes lol
The paste you used, I like to use it on my dioramas. It makes really good desert scenes. Always on sidewalks. I'm just sharing with you on how I use it.
That crackle paste with mica added would make a beautiful faux leather for book covers and junk journals💜💜 aaaaanndd it would be kinda cool for steampunk crafts too 😮
I kept waiting for the weird,but instead got a list of products I often use for little interesting effects!That said...That did not stop me from enjoying this video & ...You are always a delight to watch really
So the auto-generated captioning would occasionally say "brisket" instead of "frisket" and it was glorious.
"So next I paint a thin line of brisket"
Btw, frisket is one of the basic supplies for watercolor painting, I can't believe you've never heard of it!
I don't think they sell it in my country lol 😂
I know. I thought the same thing. Liquid mask has been around a long time. Maybe it's because it's most popular with watercolor.
I guess she’s used liquid latex because she knew what that was so maybe it was just because it was called “frisket.” I know what liquid latex is but I’ve never heard of frisket either lol
I’ve heard it called masking fluid, maybe frisket is the name by that particular brand? Or a US thing, idk.
@@FelineFurKin it's probably a brand thing, I'm in the US and I've never heard of it either. Then again, it may be regional.
"I'm testing art supplies no ones ever heard of!" *Tests masking fluid*
Thought the same xD
Ikr
I’ve never heard masking fluid referred to as “frisket” so I was intrigued until she described what it’s used for 😂 and then I was like “...it’s just masking fluid?”
@@katelillo1932 Same! Lmao
I remember hearing about LF in art class. Haven't had the opportunity to purchase it since then.
The crackle Paste can be used in miniature sceneries, especially when creating a outdoor scene in which you will need to do mountains or large Rock structures.
Can we talk about the neon eyeshadow?!it's giving✨
Who else loves how Michael’s smells around Christmas time?? The smell of cinnamon pinecones🥰 (also When she said Frisket I heard brisket and now I’m hungry)🤣🤣
I love that smell for the first couple of days or just walking by, but I spent years working at a Jo-Ann and let me tell you... That tasty cinnamon smell isn't so great for allergies in the long run. XD
Come home smelling like cinnamon and covered in glitter :)
don't kill animals plz and thnx
@karma6161 I love meat I love love nuggets not vegan ones😂🙄💅
When I was working at Hobby Lobby people bought crackle paint when they wanted to make a small piece of furniture or a decorative piece look old. They called it 'Antiquing'. I don't ever remember people saying they used it on actual canvass for painting a picture.
I think the art Sherpa likes to use that paint that dries slow. She mixes something in with her paint that causes it to dry slow too. It’s pretty cool and helpful. I don’t know if you’ve ever seen any of the art sherpas stuff but she is an amazing soul and I love to follow her tutorials. She’s also a really positive person and just really comforting so a lot of times when I am going to sleep I will put her on just because she is so comforting. My sister and I really like to do the wine and paint stuff but it’s expensive so we will follow her at home and drink and eat as much as we like while we follow her tutorials haha. :-)
The golden open acrylics are AMAZING. They have a luminosity and color vibrance like oil. But they’re water dissolvable and layer greatttt. Amazing color selection too!
You could use that crackle stuff to do what I call a relief painting. It's a painting where some of the paint is globbed on really thick on certain parts, so that you can feel the shape of the objects in the picture. It gives a nice 3D effect. I have a painting by the artist Harvey Konigsberg, called A Chair and a Sax, which is like this. It was an oil painting that he did in 1968, of a saxophone lying on a chair, on a white background. The thing I always liked about it, is how the paint on the saxophone, especially on the bell end, is applied so thick, that it sticks out so much that you can actually feel the shape of the saxophone. I think you could do something similar with that crackle stuff. If you did a picture with a lot of bright neon colors, where the things in the picture were outlined with the crackle paint, that would be really cool. Maybe a picture of people dancing or playing musical instruments or something, and the instruments would be outlined with it, so they stand out in 3D.
Can we talk bout Rae's Christmas themed nails they r so adorable
I only knew about crackle nail polish. But of course it’s used in painting stuff.
Oh. Amsterdam makes a great acrylic paint extender that is a clear fluid that mixes in with a few drops and it’s a lot better than other mediums I’ve tried. Edit: My husband just told me that he uses crackle fluid for Warhammer paint. So much I didn’t know about 🥴🤔😃😂
There is a liquid that is slowing the drying time of acrylic you can add to any of your normal acrylics. Thanks for the work you do, I love your videos ❤
Windsor and Newton slow drying medium
@@RitaBaumann A lot of acrylic brands have a slow drying medium. But I think the medium is way cheaper at the long run.
I would use the crackle paint to make a zebra or any animal because it shows lots of texture. Also, you can use crackle paint to make birch trees or regular trees!
WE NEED A PART 2
I think crackle paste is more often used in craft projects.
I had this crazy idea of painting a volcano 🌋 with the crackle paint! It would come out so realistic with all the cracks and dimensions because of the crackle paint!
I think using the crackle paste would be really cool when painting something like lightning, lava or a stormy ocean.
My first thought was for making a dry lake bed, since that texture looks almost identical.
The fact that u r a Leo got me jumping up and down as whenever I find out that my favourite person is a Leo I get excited
Also m one myself! Also love ur makeup, u look gorgeous!
Ya, crackle paste is used a lot in art journals or mixed media projects to add texture or distressed looks. The result is really cool 😎.
Crackle paste can also be used in mix media art. It’s a lot of fun I highly recommend!!!
The crackle paste would probably look cool if you used it with a gold or silver metallic paint (like that liquid mirror stuff). Or maybe put it on a black background and use a really colorful paint to make the cracks
The crackle paste kind of makes me think of scales on a snake or dragon. It could also be cool to use in a desert landscape.
For the Golden Open Acrylic paint: they are not transparent because of them being longer workable. It's just because of the pigments they used in the set you've bought. The same goes for the bright colours you've mentioned. While there are usually more fancy options for acrylic paint than for oils I won't say that that's typical to have more vibrant paintings just because one is using acrylic paint instead of oil. It's what colours you choose and what you make of it.
Sure, sets, especially in the lower price range are often super bright and since many don't know how to mix colour and how to keep acrylic paint workable longer this tends to end up in more flashing paintings. However, if one dives deeper into it it is possible to achieve oil like paintings with acrylics (I had people not believing that I was using acrylic paint in my paintings when I corrected their assumption that it was made by using oil paint). Especially Golden has a great range of colours in different styles from inky fluid to real thick and a lot of mediums that help achieving amazing results.
For those thinking of trying their "Open" series: they will feel super weird first. The consistency is quite unique and if you're coming from normal acrylic paint you need to learn to get patient (well, they also dry slow when it's not what you want right now and sometimes you'll need to wait a day or more to have them dried completely, depending on what you were doing). And adjust your technique: they are different and just like graphite and charcoal are similar but not the same it's the same with ordinary acrylic paint and "open" acrylic paint.
Anyway: thanks for testing all of that and showing it online!
Crackle paint has been around for more than 45 yrs. I sold it in a now defunct craft supply/yarn store in Canada. And yes, the thinner the paste the finer the cracks. When I sold it, it was a thick liquid, but if you take the excess water out of it, it would probably have become a thick, fluffy produced like you have tested. "Back in the day", we used to use it for a distressed look on painted objects like a birdhouse or inexpensive furniture.
Crackle paste, Slow drying aclyrics, and magic erasers are very well known. many people in my school including me use it for projects. It's just not easily available in my country.
Hi Rae, I use crackle paste for painting desert scenes, it's gives great texture to the flat sand and dunes. I also use it for painting ceramics, vases, bowls ect. it gives a great aged effect. Enjoy your channel so much!
I love your eyeshadow. Wish I could do it like that!
TrueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEE
Ikr! It’s so pretty
That beautiful neon green💚
Can we talk about her eyebrows too? 😳
Their so perfect
I could neverrrr
She’s just perfect
You can! I believe in you 🥰
I think the crackling paste would be great for hyperrealistic surrealism. Like painting a hyperrealistic portrait but at one point the person just crackles and falls apart or something like that. I'd 100% use the paste for this. To me it's just going the extra mile, not just painting the crackles but creating them with this paste and giving it a nice mixed medium look.
The crackle is also used allot in mixed media and scrapbooking. I’ve seen my mom use this allot to get certain effects. I myself also use it for the bases of my miniature figures.
For the crackle paint I think you actually used it a little too thick. But yes you can have it thicker and thinner to add texture. Once dry you can add glazed layers over it too to give extra dimension 🎨💜🥰
Crackly paste is so much fun! Had to use it for school (we were learning about textures) but I used it for a personal piece for skulls and it looked so cool!
The crackle paint one looks like mustard on a gingerbread. Interesting video, thanks, Rae
Ok can I just say I LOVE your makeup THE BRIGHT GREEN EYE SHADOW IS SO COOL
I was always taught not to shade with black, so every time Rae says people use a ton of black I look at all my leftover black supplies all baffled like, "really??? but these are only for accents and lineart????" 😂😂 hooray for different approaches
Metallic and shimmer go GREAT on black...also chalkboard markers and colored chalk💜
Same
