I Spent 14 Days Painting this 10 Meter Wide Mural

[@KaypeaCreations]

I’m not gonna lie when you first painted the white base for the particles I was like what?! Why?! Then I say how freaking awesome they turned out and was like. WAT?! HOW?! Airbrushing really is a game changer 😆 the end result turned out beautifully I hope you feel pride in this piece cause you absolutely should. Also congrats on the new space!! 🥰

[@alexandralite835]

Omg kaypea, I didn't know you watched nerdforge. What a small world. 🙂

[@tigerdcd]

Always trust in the process

[@Deehydrate]

When you need something to look like lightning up, you need a white base. All light in nature have a white shine in the middle because all colors are actually just white with different reflections. a red neon light in example is white in the center, yellow around and red only as the last shine.

[@artsybuddies7742]

Me too! I LITERALLY felt the same but the end result is my dream thing like-

[@amberhatcher9476]

I think having a background layer adds a tremendous amount of depth, realism, and life to your work. I always thought thats why you worked in layers. Whatever the reason, keep it up your doing great, and don't let those nay-sayers get you off your game. Your work is incredible and stunning as ever. Thanks Martina for continuing to put out new content.

This looks incredible and your KZbin got me back into painting with acrylics -- thank you for being such a huge inspiration to us all.

[@grexursorum6006]

17:28 The birds on the tree infront of the light ray are my favorite motiv. IDK why but its this nice contrast to the dark and mysthical forest around and the swarm of birds in the background. They look relaxed and happy to me. They have done theire work for day and have come to rest in this slowly awaking magical forest, whlie the rest. Absolute fantastic job over all.

[@zatoth13]

Martina: “Look at the size of this! This is huge!” Next video: Martina: “We are painting a mural on the Burj Kali!fa!” I can relate on painting in layers and covering over other things you painted in it. Layering provides a continuity. If you have a tree or road, you do not have to fret about the lines following correctly. I find pen and ink challenging for that. You are working with everything together at once and I often draw on tracing paper different elements to move and get the movement and negative space correctly.

[@mee9981]

[@chrisose]

There are invisible UV paints that are transparent in normal light but glow under UV. I've used them for reveal effects in a couple of projects with great success. The paints aren't cheap but the results can be amazing. Another point with UV paints is the quality of your UV projectors. To get the best blacklight effect you need lights that produce UV right around the 365nm range. Most LED "blacklights" produce light in the 400nm range which doesn't fully activate UV pigments and will also cast a visible purple light onto the work.

Small question: are you using like, something to cover the acrylics, some varnish or something?? How long do acrylics last on walls? Do they discolor with the sunlight?? I have so many questions o.o Cuz I wanna paint a mural in my new bedroom but I dunno what kind of paints I should use or how I should approach the medium on the walls

[@nae_on]

You can use either acrylics or oil paint. I used both on my mirror. I suggest using acrylics, since they dry a lot faster. I don't think you need to use a primer or finishing varnish for the wall but you should look it up just in case.
