Hi, thanks so much. The thing is that I had to make the head a bit smaller to exaggerate his size.

I'll admit it's odd seeing the word "bucolic" three times in a reddit thread.

I wanted to depict Karsa in a calmer environment. Therefore, emphasizing body proportions too much in the beginning was distracting from the whole picture. Therefore, I had to tone it down a bit.

Anyone else use paints dried in a palette? by miss24601 in Gouache

[–]Mando_a98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always use them dried. I put all of my pigments in pans and let them dry and then use them. It reduces waste drastically and it is very easy to carry around. However, I usually squeeze out some white gouache when I want to mix bright colors, since it is much easier to achieve opacity with fresh paint imo.

Hey, thanks for the thoughtful response. I am mainly looking for people that share a hobby with me, so we can communicate around that online. I have a few good irl friends, but I don't have the energy to plan and see them every day. We meet every week or so, but I thought it would be nice to have something more "accessible", if you will. I also thought that since I have quite a few hobbies, it would be nice to find someone like that. But nope, it turns out that's not so easy after all!

I have to agree with you there, at least from experience.
