I’ll probably do some toothbrush spray near the top as well Heres where I’m at .. once background is done ... spray should be last thing yes ? that looks great. No dont cover-spatter will seep under paper and smear/puddle. Just do the splats, let dry, and paint over whatever you dont want. You can tighten up the lines on sword with a sharpie btw. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea true ... rookie mistake .. next time or , at this point maybe just leave white I would never leave an unpainted white canvas area it looks cheap. Even if I wanted white b/g I would paint it white. A thick layer of white. Edited November 21, 2018 by kav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kav Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 One thing i liked about airbrush was you can fix anything. Just spray over mistake/spill with white, do over!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You dont grind your own paints so no need to be a stickler!! Just think of a sharpie as a type of paint brush and the ink a type of paint- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A thick scrawly line looks great. I mean thick vertically not wide Edited November 21, 2018 by kav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kav Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 and be sure to add enough coats to make word balloon blindingly white. If paint keeps seeping up use something like fixative or shellac to make impenetrable layer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
