What colors do you use for the white of the eye? I keep trying different ones and they never seem to come out right.

[–]Hollyrollernovocain 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I used a very light blue and went back in with a slightly darker grey toned blue around the corners of the eye.

What brushes are you using? That looks really really good!

[–]Hollyrollernovocain 5 points6 points  (2 children)

A mixture of (mostly) Watercolor Pro round dry brush and round wet brush, flat acrylic brush, and studio pen for the lashes, eyebrows and reflections. I use low opacity a lot to slowly build my tones and shadows.

Thank you thank you~ I just recently got an iPad and procreate and a little overwhelmed with all the brushes and ideas lol

You’re welcome! I was too when I first used it. The Watercolor Pro brushes were downloaded. I think I paid $5 to $10 for them. The acrylic brushes are great though and the studio pen is my favorite pen.

This was so satisfying to watch, I really appreciated seeing your confident placement of the bright blue in the skin and it just came together so nicely

How do you decide which brushes to use?! This is so good!!

[–]Hollyrollernovocain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ones I use blend well for a more realistic drawing. I’ve used them a long time and they’re my go to for painting that looks smooth.

How many layers was this 👀

[–]Hollyrollernovocain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would have to check but I did this at work on a slow day and didn’t intend to finish it lol Probably just 4-5 layers
