lemon sherbet dragon
🕑 Added 2020-04-04 00:47:31 +0000 UTCi restarted the dragon. this time i inked all the lines with a felt tip .005 pen and most of that jittery line work is due to how hard i grip the pen (i am not quite relaxed with the medium yet)
after the inks i got my BIG set of watercolor brushes and started putting down all the underpainting colors. once that is done then i will go over it with gouache and hopefully have a nice painterly painting in the end
if this looks the way i want it too then i will try the same kind of process for oils. use tracing paper to transfer my image to a canvas. ink the image, do an acrylic underpainting with several translucent layers THEN finish it with ink
i wish i could have more success with a looser method but i think i need to do things with this rigid step by step method to get any real progress

but this time i did it on purpose, since it is watercolor starting out yellows and oranges are my lightest colors.

you ... really like your yellow bases đđđđđđ Sorry, just riffing here. But yeah, as you said, this second try is coming out much better.
