Joan of Arc - Avoiding Burn Out
Contrasts... first of what i am sure will be many thoughts
I bloody love them so far but I am not sure if you can paint with contrast alone.
The below two bulidings (foreground) and the four trees (you can just see them in the background) took just around an hour… or one episode of “American Dad”, Jerry’s overview of “Saga – Age of Magic” on the Site and sorting out my wife’s dinner.
Still a bit wet...Now please ignore the white, this will be painted brown as this is the timber frame and how shiny the roof is as they are still wet but i have to say I am very impressed so far.
So far the biggest lesson I have learnt is that loading the brush for one thick coat really does depend on what area you are covering and I am wondering how the contrast will work on the fiddly bits like the door handles and window frames without running too much.
I also notice that on the trees there seems to be small white patches that have somehow avoided all paint – maybe due to bubbles? Will go back and sort them.
All in all though I am impressed and to get to this stage would have normally taken me a lot longer.
