minus-squaremelbaboutown@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-217 hours agoMashing paint again for this video. https://youtu.be/eBuR2nMGBhQ I’ve stuffed up a few times and am only halfway through but oh well. And the paint dries quickly being in small space limited piles even on baking paper. I think I need a proper palette or something
minus-squareTheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·17 hours agoMaybe try paper plates? Or those ultra cheap plastic ones from colesworth?
minus-squaremelbaboutown@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·17 hours agoThe plastic ones sound good. I’m finding paper absorbs moisture and speeds drying. Also I’ve been accidentally scraping through wet paper
minus-squareSeagoon_@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·17 hours agojust keep on practicing, use different materials, daiso is very good for cheap and good artist supplies but you are awesome, you are slowly but surely doing things 🙂
minus-squaremelbaboutown@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-217 hours agoThanks. For paint I’m currently using Anko from Kmart and Born from Officeworks but will check out Daiso for more art supplies Edit: The Reject Shop also has cheap primary colour paints
minus-squareSeagoon_@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up5·17 hours agocool, art supplies can be a real money bottomless pit so I hear you 🙂
minus-squaremelbaboutown@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-217 hours agoIt feels criminal to squeeze out so much. And the cheap kits mean buying a bunch of colours I don’t use. Canvas is also going to add up so paper sketch pads might be worth trying
minus-squareSeagoon_@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·16 hours agouse all the colours just to get brush skills , sketch pads from daiso are a definite option right now I’m using a so so quality burnt sienna ink, it good enough for practice
