Konrad Von Juntz
« on: April 27, 2007, 02:02:58 PM »
Hello.

My painting skills have gone to the dogs of late simply because I don't paint as often as I did. But I did at long last finally finish this guy.

Not my best but better than what I have been doing.

Hello

Probably but he is in on the finished list. I was going for usable and that is what I got. He is sealed with two coats of gloss and two coats of matt coat. Like I said he isn't my best but he is still better than some I have done.

i can see that..

why did you do that? 4! coats...

that really is not necessary. max 2 coats of relatively thin sprayed puity seal (or the like) will be enough. it does not even have to look wett..


the dragon is just washed a little with black ink (wings, head..) it gives an enourmouth contrast and deph by increasing the work very few. use a japanese bursh and ad and remove ink with it. its easy quick and effective

Hello.

The 4 coats are recommended by quite a few painters I know. They recommended 4 thin layers of sealent. two thin layers of gloss with two thin layers of matt. It seals and protects best in there opinion.

@wmeredith-- Looks good.  I wouldn't be ashamed to put him on the table.

@Aldrien-- Very nice dragons.  If I get a chance to come to Germany we have to party!!! ;D
