Thanks for subbing! Glad I was able to help.

can u tell me which frame it's used for glass painting 🖌️

[@nagatouzumaki7265]

@@pecocoart2789 I have used normal glass from photo frames but it's kinda dangerous...I got a severe cut with the glass and my hand was bleeding like crazy. Took over a month to heal. After that I didn't do glass painting. Just scared about what happened. Then I discovered plexiglass, some people use plexiglass and it seems really safe compared to actual glass.

[@minjoonie]

Hi i have a question. When i use sharpie oul based marker for black lines, sometimes when i go over the lines again itll scrape off the line I had before. Does the sakura pen do that too?

[@DrawninjaKC]

No it doesn’t. But to prevent the oil based sharpie from doing that don’t press so he’d on it. You can actually get a strong opaque line the first time if you ease off on the pressure when you have a good flow of paint.

[@wangyipu06]

Hello, I’m planning to do a very large glass/plastic painting so I was wondering before I invest a massive amount of time: have you ever had any problem with paint fading/cracking/peeling? Have you tried painting on plastic as well? If so, would you recommend glass or plastic for longevity?Do you prepare the glass in any way beforehand? Do you use a sealer? Thank you very much

[@DrawninjaKC]

How large are we talking? No I do not prepare the glass other than making sure it’s clean and clear. I don’t put any sealant. I usually put it back in the frame with Bristol board cut to size at the back of it in the frame to give it a white background. I’ve never done it on plastic so can only recommend glass. I’m not sure about longevity but my oldest glass art painting about 5 months old and so far so good. Hope this helps.

[@wangyipu06]

@@DrawninjaKC Thank you, this does help a lot. Probably about 90 by 60cm. What’s the largest one you’ve done?

[@pial4613]

How do you secure the back of your glass? So that the colour won't go of when it's in the frame

[@DrawninjaKC]

I don't. If you want to you can use mod podge. but i just put bristol cut to size in the back.

[@janasitoy8342]

Hello! I lovee your video's and I was wondering if you can paint characters with glasses when doing glass painting. I wanted to do a hawks glass painting, but I can't figure out how to paint his yellow tinted visors before painting his eyes.

[@DrawninjaKC]

Don’t think of it as painting a transparent glass. Just match the colors to every part the glasses cover and when it’s finished it will have the desired effect.

[@janasitoy8342]

Ohh, okiii. Thanks soo much!

[@xmarshmellox8427]

Any alternatives to using the Amazon bag things? Trying to ship mine soon and I don’t have anything besides bubble wrap

[@DrawninjaKC]

Sure old newspaper or crumpled up copy paper.

[@psimango]

Hello I just started glass painting and was wondering, do you pay the special handling fee or ship normally? I heard that even if you add fragile stickers/write fragile on the box, that the shipping company handles it as it would other packages anyway (because u need to pay the fee) ?

[@DrawninjaKC]

That's why i did this packing video. You really can't rely on shipping companies to be careful with your package. So i make sure to pack it in a way that drastically reduces the chance of the art being damaged.

[@psimango]

@@DrawninjaKC Yeah unfortunately that is the case :( But this video helped me learn how to properly pack my orders so thank you!!

[@leonardofiorentino5853]

Hi, I’ve a problem can you help me? I have a fine line sharpie but the line aren’t opaque and when I put the paint the ink spreads and the color come out dirty. How can I solve this problem. I’m an 15yo Italian so my English isn’t good. Pls don’t pay attention to my mistakes

[@DrawninjaKC]

Don't use that sharpie! Try to get an oil based sharpie. They work well.

[@leonardofiorentino5853]

@@DrawninjaKC thank you, I'll try

[@KhyanSocrates]

Hi so I'm finding the best marker for outlining my work and i try the Posca pen, Identi pen and i want to try the sharpie oil based marker the problem is this Posca pen- really great for outlining it's really thick for lining but the problem is i used acrylic pait and i saw your video that it smudge with the posca pen so that's a no for me Identi pen - I like it it's the one I'm using on my work but the ink is just too thin I'm going back and forth to get a thick line The sharpie oil based pen which the one i want to try, i want to know how it will react to the acrylic paint and is the ink thick And I'm dealing with cracks on the paint, maybe it needs more time to dry, and can you give a me a advice to stop the paint from cracking? And the name of the squeeze bottle that you used Please let me know about the sharpie oil based paint, Thank you❤️❤️ Your fan from the Philippines

[@DrawninjaKC]

I'm not sure if you know but the identipen does have two sides. you may be just using the extra fine side. Use the other side and see if the lines are still too thin. The link to purchase the bottles are in description under the video. hope thie helps. I highly recommend the oil based sharpie.

How do you cover the back of the painting? Do u every time just frame it or do u use anything else? BTW the video is awesome 😁

@@DrawninjaKC don't mean to disrespect you but I saw the whole video I saw that you made a sandwich with the cardboards I guess I wasn't able to explain my question properly..what I meant to ask you was what do u with the back of the painting like do u apply varnish? Or modge podge? Or something else

[@DrawninjaKC]

@@KorePriti ooooooohhh, lol. I’m not offended. I actually just misunderstood your question. In truth I don’t put anything on the back of the painting. I’ve found that it doesn’t make a difference.

I need your help pls! I'm using identi pen as a marker but the lines were fading away. So i used sharpie markers but the outlines still fading away what should i do?

[@DrawninjaKC]

You’re paint is probably too thin. You need a better quality thicker paint.

[@angeloresano5523]

I mean I haven't started painting it yet and the outlines started fading away

[@DrawninjaKC]

@@angeloresano5523 thats definitely a mystery. When you’re drawing the lines is your hand on the glass? Could be that your hand moving across the glass as you draw is erasing the line work.

[@angeloresano5523]

It's probably because of my hand but i started using paper on my hand but still the lines are fading. I can send a pic to you on gmail if you wanna see.

[@DrawninjaKC]

@@angeloresano5523 any fraction would make the lines fade. When you remove the paper is there black paint or ink on the paper? Not sure why this is happening.

[@Angelica.wallee]

Can I ask you something, I am good at drawing faces from a reference but when drawing anime I just never get the character like the reference. I see every artist making a perfect drawing of anime characters but I can’t seem to get the hang of it . What do you think is the problem?

[@DrawninjaKC]

Are you talking about for glass paintings or just in general?

[@Angelica.wallee]

@@DrawninjaKC just in general, I want to paint in acrylic or gouache but the sketch looks different than the original reference

[@DrawninjaKC]

@@Angelica.wallee try not to focus on getting it perfectly like the picture you’re copying. As long as it looks like the character that’s good. No one ever gets it exact. Only the animators. Keep practicing and eventually you will see you’re going to get better at it. Have confidence in your ability to improve.
