You can use clear coat as a first layer of the straight line with tape trick. Thay way you only have to match the finish, not the color. I think someone also used hairspray, but don't quote me. I may have confused the hairspray with a 3D printer trick.

OK Y'all, I am an artist, but, more importantly, I was a pro painter for years (that means a house painter) and I worked in the paint dept of Home Depot for two years. The "secret" to painter's tape is to remove it when the paint is still wet. If you wait til it dries the paint is essentially chipping off and you won't get a smooth edge. If you wait til it's kinda dry it is even worse cuz the paint is, like, stretchy and elastic so you can end up ripping even bigger pieces off, like trying to rip a piece pf plastic wrap in half. But yeah, with textured walls, it is almost impossible to get the tape to wrap around all the little bumps and valleys.

But then you would have to be really careful if you also did it after you painted or else you would wipe up the paint.

Tip for blending color pencils: If you want a smoother gradient, you have to bring up the colors into each other instead of just holding the pencil lighter. For example if you mix 2 colors (like red and yellow) then you need 3 color areas (red, orange, yellow) - in that middle area you blend while gradually shifting the amount of color, so the first color becomes weaker and the next becomes stronger. This should happen with the colors being layered on top of each other, not in separate. That's also how you can get blended colors (in this case orange) even without using a pencil that was originally that color.
@Difyance3 жыл бұрын
The thing with straight lines with tape is that the video is using green masking tape, which is Frog Tape. It creates a seal when moisture first hits it. If you go over it with water first and wait a few minutes, it will create that clean edge. I use it exclusively for my art (mainly watercolor but sometimes acrylic) because it also is less likely to damage the paper when removed.

Thank you!! I like to make sure people know that they’re not alone if they find new mediums challenging or have to practice for a while at them! Just because someone is an artist doesn’t mean they can use all mediums perfectly right away, ie I’d be a terrible tattoo artist because I’ve never done it, and I’ve only used oils once 😂 of course knowing how to use acrylics helps, but you still have to learn how to work with it. Every medium takes a lot of work!

I’ve used a hair straightener on my natural bristle brushes. Doesn’t affect the glue because you don’t put it on the metal.

I've seen a lot of people do the hot water with brush trick. As long as you don't get the ferrule wet than you should be ok. A lot use soap after to maintain the shape while it dries. I noticed someone mentioned that it probably works better for synthetic hair but as hairstylist I assume real hair would work just as well because when hair is wet it swells and it can be moulded to the shape you like and it creates new bonds as it dries. So again the soap makes sense to maintain the shape whilst drying. Also your bear looks awesome! X ☺️

To be honest the weird troom troom linetechnique was (in a modified version) very helpful for me to learn to draw what you see instead of what you think you see (so maybe to learn how to analyse shapes better?). So look at the negative space and making shapes angular, and measuring the line lengths against each other helped when getting a shape to look more like the reference version

One thing I was always told by my art teachers, always start out light and get a little darker as you go, and do everything in layers. (In terms of shading) it'll look bad at first but it gets better with each layer and if you want it to look realistic you'll need a lot of layers. Takes patience that's for sure, of course with practice you'll be able to do it faster

I've actually learned the boiling water method from one of my first How to Draw Manga books. My secret is to not dip the brush all the way in (Get only the bristles wet to prevent the glue from melting), then shape it, carefully drying it with a paper towel, and then using either a bit of conditioner as a brush shaper to really smooth down the bristles with your fingers, then let dry overnight. Works beautifully! ♥ Also, there may be a couple of stray bristles that I carefully trim off with tiny scissors.

So the drawing hack is actually exactly how I would attempt to explain to a person who doesn't draw, how to begin drawing, I'm 40, I've been an an artist and drawing since I was 5, so sure I have 35 years of experience, my hand and eye is trained, and quite honestly at 5 I had a natural ability to render objects realistically on paper, and some people just can't do this and yet they want to learn. Even the grid method can be incredibly challenging, hard to grasp, and frustrating for a beginner. So that strange method, hack might actually work for extreme beginners.
