Artist's Comments

I got bored of CG. I'll put it away for awhile..
Just a fun experiment with my watercolors. I mixed silver paint with the colors so the original is shinnny *_*.
Can someone tell me what the heck gum arabic does and how it is applied? >_<

A little fairy carefully decorating flowers, all day long. Best damn job in the world.

Gum arabic: you put it on with a crow quill, let it dry, paint over, then use an eraser to take it off easily... is that what you wanted to know? :)

@_@ Holy shit! You're supposed to take it off? You're bluffing! I mixed it with me paints and when I see theres no different, I left it. I think you're thinking about masking fluid, right.. right? Otherwise I'm really messed up man.. XD
btw: Thanks for the comment! :)
