Wow, now this is helpful as I'm clueless at painting in general. quick question though... after doing the back ground colour and moving onto the otehr areas do you still use the masking stuff again??? Or does is mangle the already painted areas?

For this pic, after I was done with the bg area, I didn't use frisket anymore. ^^
so the other parts I just painted them regularly without frisket ^^.

Ah, thank you. I really need to actually dig out my old watercolours. I have some really nice sets too.... Of course I can't get anything nearly as beautiful as your work so I shall continue to watch you in envy.

No you're not idiot at all!!!

Aww.. you're so sweet.

Before you made the tutorial, I was actually kinda wondering how you use watercolors without ruining the other parts of the lineart. So that's the magic of frisket. XD:

You really are awesome!

สุดยอดดดดดดดดด หนูเป็นพวกกลัวสีน้ำ แต่พออ่านอย่างนี้แล้วก็น่าลองจังเลย

Liquid Frisketมันคืออะรเหรอคะพี่หมี จากที่อ่าน ดูเหมือนมันจะช่วยกันน้ำได้?
แล้วเงาที่ใช้สีม่วงกับสีน้ำตาล พี่มีเลือกใช้จุดไหนสีไหนยังไงเหรอคะ

Thank you so much for making this; it'll be so helpful when I begin learning watercolors (never tried it )

But I have a question; what size and type of paper did you use? If it's not too much to ask.

Thanks again, this is going to be so cool to try out. ^_^

Ecthelian In reply to Lumaris [2008-07-20 07:30:10 +0000 UTC]

Ana-sama In reply to ??? [2008-07-20 06:21:37 +0000 UTC]

I have two questions:

What brand of watercolor paper would you reccomend?
I noticed that the tape you used to hold it down was blue. Do you need a certain type for that, or will regular scotch tape work?

By the way, thank you so much for this ♥

Ecthelian In reply to Ana-sama [2008-07-20 07:29:28 +0000 UTC]

Usually I use Canson : Montval (it's cold press by the way) but recently I switch to use Fabriano. I think Fabriano absorbs colors better but still, Canson is the good one for sure!!!!

And the reason that I taped in that picture. Because I wanted to stick it with my clipboard so I could work more convenient. The tape I used is called 'Artist Tape' I think you can find it at any art store : D
