Had fun with this one, itching for something from Howl's next.
Ooh very good! I like the minimalistic sea and the texture on her coat is beautiful. The watercolour texture and colours are so fitting for Ghibli. If I remember correctly they do use watercolours for some of their backgrounds.
Yeah thank you so much. A lot of thought went into the textures on the coat actually. I know they use a couple different methods for their art, it's all absolutely beautiful. One day I might mess around with gouache, I believe it's what they primarily use.
Is that white gel pen for the glint on the water?
Great job, btw!
No, I masked the area with frisket. I actually would have used white gel but I was masking other areas anyway.
Thanks! Appreciate it :)
I love it!
Also those big flat spaces are hard to do in water colours!
Also I love the kitten π!
I mentioned in another comment- I used a liquid masking fluid to cover the 2 smaller birds, the broom head, and the radio. Really helps with clean even washes when you can ignore those inconvenient areas and lay down some paint freely.
Thank you so much for the comment.
Not the hair and the rest? You're good at this! The flat color seems really spotless too jealous sounds...
