Cover WIP 3
Here you can see I’ve done a lot more with the sky, introducing some purples as well to keep it from being too monochromatic up there. Scrubbed out a lot of the pencil work into those spaces to blend in with the painting.
After that, new layer I’ve started on the cloth. It’s nice being able to isolate the elements this way so should I come to not like something, I can just delete the layer. You can see all the reds I’ve been mixing on the palette. For those who use painter, I use the Wet Oily Blender Brush a LOT. Almost exclusively. It’s got a short stroke to it, and with continued pressure the paint "runs out" so I can soften edges, or blend colors. If I need some blending without adding more color, I switch to one of the blender brushes.
