Well, I draw manga, so this technique wouldn't look to good on the skin, but it definitely is a great technique, and it explains somethings to me that I've tried to achieve. Thanks a lot for these tutorials.

Could you recommend any basic supplies for starting watercolor painting? (P.S. I've never painted seriously before, though I have some old brushes from my family some watercolor paints in my room somewhere.)

Great i'm so happy. Can i ask you another thing? Do you know anything about finding the different opacity paints, I'm finding I'm buying transparent colors all the time by mistakes. I don't mind transparent colors, i just don't always want to use them was wondering if you get that alot too.

a lot of the time paint doesn't go on opaque because it doesn't really work that way

Well honestly I've been getting Blick artist brands mostly. but I do get some winsor newton mostly gouache, golden, liquitex, when i get a coupon/sale.
Either way i think I might be doing something wrong. Especially when my paints turn dark like that....

thanks and you're welcome! it's not as daunting as it seems! as long as you begin with a warm base tone, skin usually comes out looking pretty good! a lot of people actually use the wet on dry technique for painting skin, but i feel you get very little warmth in the skin with that technique because of the white of the paper
