[@belladrawsthings8314]

Amazing tutorial! This one actually worked and i didn’t end up with a splotchy pastelly mess like i did with other tutorials.

[@rc0770tc]

My grandaughter totally loved this video and she is going to try this sometime.I hope that her results turn out great!!!

[@coley8116]

Thank you this was very helpful and it was also calming.

[@AprilXyloto]

This video is so useful! I've just moved from acrylics to watercolours and was wondering how to get an effect like this, so thank you! :)

[@dennislowry8260]

You made it look so easy. Thanks.

[@su37fhiok97]

yo, thanks for the tutorial! this was super helpful and way simpler than I expected

[@RivyaZWorld]

I have the same exact book and watercolor paper as you 😂 what a coincidence

[@itsjustmekc1029]

OMG!! Thank you for making this tutorial...

[@THEARTISTGAURI]

Purple ocean 💜💜💜💜🤩🎨

[@pytra]

it looks so good! i will try whenever i get proper sized paper ♥ thank you!

[@studioofmm]

There were a couple of issues in the original which have been fixed in this version.

[@denisecamacho8825]

Hey I was wondering, how did you make your colors darker? Thanks! P.S. Really enjoyed this

[@denisecamacho8825]

And I was wondering should I start off with light colors?

[@studioofmm]

+Denise Camacho watercolour paint is naturally translucent so the darkness happens as you build up the layers of the colours.

[@studioofmm]

+Denise Camacho it's always a good idea to go from light to dark, especially with watercolour paint.

[@denisecamacho8825]

So you used the same paint all throughout?? And it became darker? Thanks!!

[@chiyo4237]

Thank you for this, you're instructions were very clear. It really helped. ^^

[@jaala9878]

Nice! This is pretty helpful, thank you!

[@offtothenextadventure4048]

Beautiful!

[@AnaCrisisBlu]

whenever I don´t know what to paint, I always paint galaxies :) this one turned out beautifully :)

[@bigboyanimation3799]

For the stars i use gouache instead of acrylic

[@suavelomito5229]

Do you use wet on wet between each layer or just on the first one?

[@micheals1992]

I'd say this is more a watercolour nebula but its still a helpful video 😁

[@bateflaiiii]

happy to see it. i like it. say best..

[@nameless6821]

Thanks so much I really needed that 😍✨

[@courtneytang4631]

very nice!!

[@offtothenextadventure4048]

Can you do this with crayola?

[@takii9846]

Ahhhhhhhhh I LOVE GALAXYYYYYYY 🌌🌌🌌😆😆😆😆😆😆

[@trivediamrita]

What thing first you add?

[@jimmysagastume3051]

Did you do wet on wet or wet on dry .

[@studioofmm]

+Geek Girl 101 wet on dry. I find that wet on wet makes the colours bleed into each other too much for a galaxy.

[@Pineapple-bv4bh]

this was greaaattttt omg thankyouuu

[@maggir8220]

I really enjoyed this. Thank you for sharing. New subscriber :)

[@takii9846]

Thankyou 🌌☺️

[@myszamyszokrwista3669]

from M.M. to M.M. i have a stupid question but i dont know how to dilute my watercolor paints. I have them in tubes. or first place them somewhere, add water to them and then put on paper?

[@sophianedima]

Hi.Can I use canvas or an illustration board?

[@studioofmm]

+Sophia Guinto they can both work, just be aware that the paint won't absorb into the surface the same was as with paper.

[@sophianedima]

Thank you

[@youcanmakeanything2436]

I would love to use water color on my channel but not really sure how this has helped some

[@teresitasantana6043]

what if I use bond paper?is that okay??

[@kathirneela1]

how do you just sploge the colours? I just mess up!

[@Kat-cc6hy]

Luv it

[@gewrgiafl8420]

Can we use regural white watercolour for the stars or it is necessary to use acrylic?

[@studioofmm]

+Gewrgia Fl watercolour is a translucent medium so for the stars you really need something that's opaque. There are a few different things you can use; acrylic ink, acrylic paint, gouache, I've seen some people even use white out.

[@gewrgiafl8420]

thank you

[@9really]

is it possible to do this in 1 hour and 30 minutes?

[@studioofmm]

+Choco Mousse possibly; it’s the paint drying that’s the time consuming part.

Studio of M.M okay thanks for the response

[@raining_in_autumn]

I've tried everything! I didn't know if we had an old toothbrush to use, so I bought a new one and tried that, didn't work. After several attempts I searched for an older one, and gave it a few attempts with that one, didn't work. I got one in an even worse condition, and checked with water how it would splatter just to see if it was my finger movements that was the issue, but when I tried with water it worked perfectly fine. So I tried again with the worse toothbrush, but then it failed AGAIN! Don't get me wrong, this video was very helpful, and it seems to work for others. I'm just upset over my own failures since I have no idea what I'm doing wrong!

[@studioofmm]

+VampireFox 3 it's probably not so much about the brush as it is about what type of white paint you're using. It needs to be liquidy enough to be able to splatter but still opaque.

[@raining_in_autumn]

I don't know honestly. The paint is liquid, that's for sure, and it's not opaque since I've gotten a few dots.. Just.. Very few... It might be that the paint is too liquorish, since when I first tried it just melted into the bottom of the brush, as well as got all over my hands. I don't know if this is the actual problem, but I don't know what else it would be. Does that mean that I'll have to get new paint tho? Or is there an easier solution??

[@raining_in_autumn]

Y'know what? That might be the problem. I took a closer look at the paper, and it seem to have gotten all over it, it's just super tiny dots and hardly visible even from a closer angle. I don't know for sure but.. I don't know what else the problem would be... Welp, guess I have to go buy new paint again then :') Thx for the advice tho, very helpful! ❤❤

[@uwu-fw1ji]

It’s best to use a thicc brush or an old brush for me, hit is on a stick or a pencil like drums but on each other and it should work out better I guess

[@julianefadriquela8773]

What brand of watercolor do you use?

[@studioofmm]

For this painting it was Winsor & Newton Cotman paints.

[@lauraacan8255]

Have anyone told you before that your voice and accents are so similar to those of Sophie Turner? :D

[@studioofmm]

+Lauraacan haha, actually yes, though I don't hear it myself (and I'm severely lacking in the British accent department).

[@lauraacan8255]

well my French ears didn't bother with the lack of accents ;) Really impressive And nice tutorial btw :D

[@ydalyxoff]

I actually imagined Sophie the whole video and only realised it when I read your comment. That's awesome!

[@___painutbutter]

may I know what watercolor brand do you use?

[@studioofmm]

+Rima Magdalena this painting was done with Winsor & Newton Cotman paints.

[@___painutbutter]

Thankyou!! Wish I can paint like you

[@uneezaqureshi98]

I'm sorry to be bothering you for asking, but are the water colors transparent or guache? Last time I used guache and the colors didn't blend well

[@studioofmm]

+uneeza usman gouache isn't actually watercolour though it can sometimes be called the equivalent of "opaque watercolour". Normal watercolours have a range of transparency levels depending on the particular colour's ingredients. To answer your question, the paints used in the video are just watercolour paints.

[@bigzaria]

how do you even use water color tubes? i bought some but i have no idea how to xD

[@studioofmm]

+Twiligh Cinder squeeze a tiny amount of the paint out onto something like a pallet or plate (something that won't absorb liquid!) and then dilute the paint with water to your desired opacity.

[@bigzaria]

Oh thanks :P

[@angieeuhardy7732]

Wow, Thank you! Love it!

[@elf6460]

New Subscriber here. This is simply stunning! I am just getting into watercolor, and loved this! Please make more tutorials like this!!! :D

[@studioofmm]

+Journaling Booknerd thank you! I'm all for making more tutorials, not sure what I'd do next though. If you have any ideas that you'd like to see I'd love to hear them :)

[@InkyBerry]

This is so cool! Amazing work, love all the colours I make watercolour paintings too, would really appreciate it if you could check them out :)

[@FunWithViks]
