By far the simplest, most straight forward tutorial for galaxy skies! Thank you! ❤

Glad you like - I hope you give it a try.

Very cool! I love nebulas. They are the cradle of baby stars and planets.

[@WildCreates]

Ha ha ha that’s a great way of looking at it. These are fun to make. Hopefully more to come In the future

Glad this could help... Let me know how the the painting comes out.

Very impressive, and informative tutorial!! That toothbrush method is fantastic. The only time I've seen it before, was from a lady painter from Asia.....

[@WildCreates]

Yeah it is a pretty quick and fun way to paint. Glad you enjoyed the video.

That is beautiful 😊

It’s a fun and little challenging one. Hope you give it a go.

[@yenracm]

Will check out will it work in oil too?

[@michaelgoodwin5510]

I believe you could do it in oil, but use a black acrylic gesso canvas to begin with, then prime it with an additional layer of black acrylic gesso to fill in the white bits (or not, your choice). Once dry, proceed with the oils (thin layers so as to help the next layer adhere to the canvas). Remember the rule "fat over thin."

@@michaelgoodwin5510 cool man will do thank u

[@michaelgoodwin5510]

@@yenracm you are so welcome, i've learned alot watching the wild man.

[@WildCreates]

Just adding to the good advice you already got here. When it comes to oils you wanna generally work from light to dark and start with very little paint. You can always add more as you go BUT most mess up by starting with too much paint then you have a big blob of ugly colors that blended together. Start Small, go slow, don't eliminate all the dark, Blend softly AND have fun :)

[@tinootb]

When glazing and moving progressively from red to violet, do we wait for the paint to dry?

[@WildCreates]

You can do either or for different effects. - Dry will let you layer colors. - Semi wet will allow you to blend colors. I would layer at highlight points and blend at darker points.

[@tinootb]

[@anabanana9141]

I attempted to do this and i was a doing great until I had to start glazing. Mind you, I decided to use light blue and dark blue. I’m using the craft smart brand. I guess I didn’t wait for the paint to dry before starting the glazing. How much water do you suggest adding to the paint before glazing? Lol

[@WildCreates]

Hard to answer that because craft paint is generally cheap paint, which mean not much pigment in it. I would may think around 10% to 20% should be water. What I would do is make sure its dry before you put on the next layer and so a test on a section and see how it goes.

[@nashvillepredsfan2562]

Did you allow the paint to dry between layers?

[@WildCreates]

The answer is yes and no. For certain layers that we wanted blended that was done with the paint still wet. For layers we wanted to build on top of we allowed it to dry. I hope that helps

[@nashvillepredsfan2562]

@@WildCreates thank you so much I’m new to painting I’m actually attempting this today!!

[@srm8866]

Man, this is fantastic!!! An absolutely perfect nebula painting - I really do dig it! Thank you, Wild, for the tutorial!!! *Newbie Question:* _Once you start the painting, must you finish it before it dries, or can you return, say a couple of days later, to either finish it and/or work on it some more?_ Nobody really touches on this in any of the videos I've watched. Thanks,

[@WildCreates]

That's a great question for newbies. If you are painting with acrylics you will notice that some sections will start drying in like 5 to 10 mins ( totally normal ). If you don't have enough time to finish, find a good stopping point that will be easy to start from again. In the video, you will notice that I break the tutorial into chapters... any one of those chapters are a great stop and starting point.

@@WildCreates - Thanks brother Wild for the info, and for the links. I saw the Blue Nebula video this morning, which was absolutely awesome, but just went and checked out the purple. Man, you're a real inspiration to a newbie like me, and with some practice and dedication, I hope to one day paint just half as well. Thanks again and I'll catch you again on the next one. Meanwhile, have a great day, Wild! Cheers,

I have tried to dollow this about 9 times and can't get it to work. The glazing just goes awry every single time. phooey.. alright 10th time the charm

[@WildCreates]

are you by chance using a low pigment paint? Or you might not be waiting for some layers to dry... Hence you are wiping them away.

[@pirateofthekarelia9172]

@@WildCreates Pyrrole Red if that tells anything. The water/paint mix either tends to cover too little or too much depending on how thick or watery I make it.

[@WildCreates]

What's the brand?

[@pirateofthekarelia9172]

@@WildCreates Amsterdam all acrylic standard series

[@WildCreates]

sadly I have not really played around with that brand. The only advice I can give if you do it again... it take more time between each nebula/glazing layer. This will let the paint set up more and show more of the color. This will hopefully give you more of a visual on where you need to add more or less color.

[@CindyVonHier]

It looks so easy..but that layering freaks me out 😅

[@CindyVonHier]

Watching it the 126 time 😅

[@WildCreates]

Ha ha ha True That ha ha ha I would suggest practice on a space piece. Don't worry about making anything... just practice the layering over and over. This will help a ton 🔥

[@WildCreates]

YES... watch it 126 more times... I need the ad revenue ha ha ha. Not sure if you saw but I have a purple nebula video that I think is a little easier to do. Perhaps give that one 126 viewings too 😋 You can see it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6fWpo2kbcR-qpo
