  • @Deathknight1700 oh nooo noo he does like characatures or however you spell them, there "supposed" to look like that, it is supposed to resemble the face alot, emphasizing on the face though and having small bodies

  • That was a major fuck-up when you went in to do the neck (right at 2:34), wasn't it? Your grasp of facial proportions is basic, I can't believe you're a professional illustrator.

  • Hello Lars, I watched your video yesterday and impressed with your work. I myself am an artist and actually work with carving eggshells. My husband handed me an airbrush he inherited from his father and it's the old type with the bucket on the side. I have a question if I may ask of course. I intent to finish a mural I started in our bathroom and am using acrylic paints. I would love to play with the airbrush. I don't know how thin or thick I should make the paint for correct flow.

  • I thought airbrushing was kinda easy from the very first time I tryed it.. The first thing I ever airbrushed was a face, with shadows and everything.. but still, it was just as basic as it can be, I still need to practice :)
