 can hear that. I think you can hear that other one. Lucy can. They all have microphones. So I, the video previously of this one, the alcohol link, stopped recording for some reason and I didn't get me putting the gold and the black hexagon on here. No idea why, I don't know how it stopped. I was streaming it private to YouTube and YouTube for some reason has been cutting us off. No idea how or why or when it happens. Unless we're live it doesn't tell me that it stopped recording on YouTube. So I don't know. So we didn't get to see me doing this but I'll show you the stencil that I used. Regular old honeycomb. Just laid it down and sprayed it black, turned it around and did the gold which I love. So now I'm going to apply the eyes. I made a bigger stencil and the previous video showed me, showed me, I showed you how to cut this out. This was a print that I made from a, what is it called, a drawing from AI. I just basically traced a face and traced just the dark parts, the parts that I wanted to cut out and use for this particular reason. It's a little easier doing a portrait when you have just the dark parts. When you, when you're practicing painting eyes or noses or hands or whatever, you just cut the dark parts out and there you go. So I'm going to put these eyes on this board and do some detail and put a little airbrush in there and some colored pencil, probably some Posca pens. I don't know, we'll see how it goes. But I'm gonna cover up my laptop with some rags because I don't want any of this overspray getting on it or in it. I'm gonna figure out a way to protect this thing if I'm gonna be painting over here like I have been. Alright, first things first. I'm going to put some multi-purpose spray adhesive. This is some decent stuff. It's not like a super 77, like a normal one where it sprays like silly string and it's super sticky and it's it's pretty industrial stuff but this is a very fine it sprays like a regular spray adhesive. You only need a little bit just a little bit and let it dry for a minute or else it will stick to your subject and will not want to come off. So what I'm gonna do here is I'm gonna put this under here and this one under here so I can spray the adhesive on it. Make sure we're not seeing anything. Also, man, that would be fun. What if you took this and had a sprayed it, flipped it over, put it on your board and then sprayed it with more of this, peeled it up and then you could put like glitter or foil. I bet that would work. It'd be just like cutting it out of shelf paper, contact paper. But alright, let's spray this on here. I'm getting sidetracked. That's it. That's all I need. Just a little bit and I'm gonna let this set over here and dry it for just a minute. You definitely want that to dry. I mean not dry dry but just soak into the paper a little and as you can see this is a brand new brand new rag and I sprayed this tonight. This black and this gold and whenever you're whenever you do like a mist and you're misting it from dark to light, there's always gonna be over spray and it's gonna sit there until you wipe it off. So if you're doing resin and you do half white, half black on a canvas and you pour resin on there, that resin is gonna pick up that black over spray and it's gonna look terrible. So all you have to do is just get a rag and just lightly dust it. Look at that. All that. You're just barely going over this. You're not really given any pressure. You're not putting any pressure on it. Go up into the gold, lightly in the gold. You don't want to scratch that gold. As you can see there's still a little bit. There you go. You can feel it on there too. Like you don't want that on there. And especially if you're gonna be doing putting color and all kinds of stuff down, your your hands will get over spray on it and you start touching and getting fingerprints and that's not good. So I'm gonna put this stencil on here. I think I probably left this dry a little bit too long. We'll see. And I made a crease around here so I remember where exactly these eyes need to go. I just lightly pushed on the edge of it here to show me right where. Whoops. I don't know if you guys in the way there. Let's see here. That's a little bit over. You can see that stuff is working. Alright so eyebrow here, eyebrow here. I think that'll be good. That's the good thing about hanging a circle. You can hang it any way you want it. But I think this is good. I think we we got it to the point where it's pretty much centered. I think this will be fine. Yeah I'm gonna I'm gonna respray this. I don't want to I don't want a lot of underspray but I don't need your tape sound. We're packing up packing up borders from me all. We appreciate that. That's the sound of happiness right there. Especially at the end of this week. It does help. Alright so you're just gonna lightly tap this because you're not trying to stick it down. It's not like you just want all these little little points to stay. It's not gonna go anywhere because it's laying down flat and you don't need to worry about that. So I've been doing this in black. I'll just do it in black. A little darker and put some like probably some purple in there. Some teal again. The teal looks good on here. I'm gonna tip this up. I'm gonna tip this so you guys can see this. I just want it at a decent angle so that I'm not spraying down and that way you're less likely to drip paint from your spray paint can. And the can wants to spray even spray and always make sure that you tilt. You see your little dam here. I explained why this is in the last video. Although I don't think it recorded that. So this is to prevent overspray from going down on your piece here. And all this is covered up so we should be good. I should be fine. Just don't spray up there. I'm not trying to get it solid. I'm just trying to get it to where I can get a nice coverage. Especially on the eyebrows. You know you're not trying to make these super dark because you can always darken them in. You can put it dark. You can put it light. You can finish it. You can do this in transparent color if you want. You could trace this on here and do it. This is just a faster way. So all you have to do is get the airbrush and do some shadows. Put some highlights. Add some color and you'll be all right. You're good to go. Take it off nice and slowly. You don't want to rip your stencil. Just in case you want to use it again. This is always a good deal. If they like it, they'll definitely want you to do another one. There you go. See I like it when that gold has dropped down. And I'm barely put. You can still see that gold in the eyebrows. See that? That's fun. I probably won't even do anything to them up there. Maybe darken them a little bit through here. That's about it. This paint dries pretty quick so I'm not worried about it too much. Let's see here. Alright so what I'm gonna do next. I'm gonna take this charcoal pencil and unplug this sharpener real quick. That's for some reason. You can't sharpen your pencil while it's plugged up. This is an awesome pencil sharpener. I'm not sure who it's by. I just got it on Amazon. There's not even a oh I guess there is. Half matte. It's a super sharpened pencil. It gives it a really nice super point and that was charcoal. Like you ever got a charcoal that sharp? Look at that. Like it's pretty amazing. Let's see. Do I have any other just regular sharpened like this? Look at this. That is a typical sharpened. Well this is an eraser but that's within a regular sharpener. Pretty amazing. Alright so now what I'm gonna do is I'm basically just going to zoom you in here. I'm just going to fill in some of the stuff. Just some of the details with this. I have a blending tool that I like to use too. Just for the detail right here and then I'll break the airbrush out and do the shadows and the dips and the nose and all that come down into the black. But just to give it this detail it's a lot faster and if you're not comfortable getting in really tight with the airbrush on these little parts here with your eyelashes then this is good too. Or you can get a paintbrush and make those lashes a lot longer. Make these connect all this stuff real lightly. These really aren't black lines but you definitely want to put some kind of a little grayish line I guess you could say. Alright so let's just do that. I'm gonna turn this light on just a little bit and I've done this phase about three or four times so I kind of know what everything looks like. I could actually probably finish it with just this nib just to kind of give it a some shadow here. Look at that. It just starts off right away. I'll give you some small eyelash shadows and that is it. That's a little trick that I figured out. If you take your airbrush or chalk or charcoal and do your eyelash to make eyelashes but make them extra long with just this light stuff and then you take your black like your solid and just go right over them. Those first ones become shadows and it makes it look super nice. There's a lot of black right here so it's kind of hard to see any shadows so you might want to I might have to get those with the airbrush to darken those in. See this is a little bit easier getting in with these eyelashes. You get this little shadow here. There's like this little dip here where the eye corner of the eye. What is that? I don't know any terms of the anatomy I'm self-taught so you guys get the lamest terms of all. The shadow right here where the eyeball and the eye socket meet I believe. That's where this guy comes in. There's normally on the photo I use there's a lot of shadow right here so a shadow from the eyelashes and a shadow from just where that meets there and I'll fill that more with with the airbrush. Fill in a little tiny little eyelashes up in the front there that go that way and they gradually start going off to the side. This is different like I haven't I haven't done a video like this or I'm painting and talking without an audience. I'm normally live when I do this so hopefully you guys enjoy this rather than me answering questions from people which I don't mind doing at all because sometimes I do miss questions in live chat and in comments and stuff. People like to know you know that's the fun part of live chat. You get to ask a question and it gets answered right away. If it's seen sometimes it just goes by a little fast and we miss it and we miss comments and questions and I like doing these because a lot of times people don't understand that there's like a shadow right here and a lot of that shadow is the reflection of your eyelids or your your eyelashes or they're the actual eyelash and then when you darken that in those get darker then it gets a little shadow here and then man it really brings a nice touch to it. Alright so I think that's all I'm gonna do with that because the airbrush is gonna do a lot more. Alright I need my circle stencil. There we go. I also made this one a bit maker space. Look at that that's perfect. I'm just gonna give this a light little line there. I don't know if I like that though. So I might, I might bring this, I might bring that down. I might meet maybe you make it bigger. We'll have to do this to the other one too so we'll see. We'll put this one up and if we don't like it we can erase it. That's what I love about charcoal is you can add it as dark as you want normally on some on any surface and it'll let's just make this one like this and you can erase it. So let's do this other eye. Don't have as much detail over here do that and if you're not comfortable doing this line just kind of do dots because it's basically all you need. You just need something to kind of give you an idea of where that is and then just take your hand and guide that charcoal. Not a pleasant sound. Get that shadow underneath the eye here. I don't think excuse me if I'm not talking I kind of get into it and forget that I'm recording. Alright now in this particular one there's she has this little dip and then there's a quick dip and then her hair comes back in. See that you can just kind of lightly you have some charcoal on your hand you can get that shadow and you can know where to airbrush that out. This is like a dip there's a highlight there and then there's a kind of dark right there. Same with this one over here. So I think this is good. This is good enough charcoal. If you want you can give her some loose eyebrows. Normally with eyebrows I'll take the exacto blade and you can do this with the eyelashes too when you start airbrushing. Airbrushing them and but you can take your exacto blade. Normally if your base is white I've painted this I think I rolled it with a flat white dead white by PPG and then sprayed it with some spray gesso. Just sand it with a little 220 then 400 and it's pretty amazing but see that you scratch and you can get and that's what I normally do also when I do the highlights and these in the in the eyes and the little eyes here you scratch back down to the white and you get some highlights in here where this eyelid is but look at that that's great I didn't even do this to the last ones. I'm not sure if I want to do that. I'll just leave that. Alright let's fill this eye in because I think I'm gonna color these I'll probably do a little bit of color. I'm not sure. A little bit bigger. I'll put this in with the airbrush. I'm not sure if I like that though. It'll be fine once I put some color in there. And I like to I like to put the color of the eyes first before you start airbrushing so that when you when you do start airbrushing you can get you can just do a natural shade natural shadow and then that goes over the eye once you darken this in then you have some kind of color underneath there so the eyes just aren't blah like sticking out when you if you do this last which doesn't make sense unless you do airbrush you can put airbrush in there if you like but a color I like to put a color down and then go from there this is a Posca pin aqua green I'm just gonna go right off I like that I think I want that more rounded of these Posca pins yeah let's I'm gonna wait till that dries I'm gonna make yeah I use two different ones on there see this one goes more circular in in towards the eyeball yeah that's too rounded that is not this off right racer here I can come back with a circular template if I want to make this pupil bigger which I might I'm not sure if I dig what I did with that was not dry it's a good thing about that as you can always come back and fill stuff in all right so I think that's all the detail I want to do with this now I get the airbrush out some fun I think I'm going to put it put purple on here first just a light shadow just all the dips and curves and add black to that and put all the definition in here yeah I'm using my eclipse I want eclipse I'm going to use I think that would be too I think that'd be too similar let's go a little darker we use the transparent dioxane I don't know I've never been able to say that word a little bit in there because you don't use a lot especially when you're just doing some shadows and just adding a little color here in there I won't be using these yet I'll get those out when I use the black need to prop this up just a little bit I have a easel over there but I'm not using that thing all right we'll start with this eye here does not want to come out not tighten that nope all else fails tighten the chuck first I'm going to warm up just a little bit I will do just a little bit to warm up just to get the old airbrush trigger hand no matter how long of an airbrush and I like to do this just a little bit it's weird not holding like normally I hold the airbrush this but since this paper my paper might want to stay there and I rarely paint at this angle I'm normally painting up on an easel and get back to the hang of it one of my least favorite lines to pull is up and down I got said I'm just gonna add a little bit of where a typical shadows are the mysteriously smoky eyes you know this little bridge part right here come down it might get one of those templates out let's use that just a little bit you know it's all you need just need a little bit it's a little little straight edge to make something not so soft you make it you know more defined being so defined I don't think I did this on my last one longer that fits perfect I just like to put a little soft line right here separate that from that because that's normally that's obviously sticking out so there's gonna be light in there and then add a little bit of color a little bit of a shadow in between but you definitely want to align right there you're not trying to draw a serious line definitely just want some kind of hint when we come back with the we'll come over it with a white pencil make some eyelash shadows since the first ones didn't want to show up because of all the paint you want to watch out when you're using a circle stencil any template and just lightly blow in that direction because if not you'll get a little hail little rounded overspray like to get in there closer but I'm holding this and I'm sitting down and I rarely paint like this so it's a little awkward painting like this let's put a little hard edge right here and that's what I like about these as you can bend these these are just made out of poster board and I made it on a laser cutter start out light you can always go darker gives it that one-two punch you can come in with your white pencil and give it some highlights or airbrush or a paint pen or something I'll probably do a paint pen with a little bit of color pencil this is a transparent color so you're wondering why it doesn't look like there's really paint getting on there because it's just so it's so light and everything is so dark right here that you have to layer this and I probably have my air pressure up to I so to see as I keep going over the same spots it gets darker and darker and more noticeable see if I would have been using black this would have been just completely covered like it wouldn't look good at all so a little bit up here in the eyebrows give a little something like I might come back with this stencil this hexagon and place it up here just right in these spots and tape off some of these obviously I'll tape off the eye but not like here or like over here and spray it so that the gold is more relevant I think that would look nice like real mist it we'll see this is where your airbrush comes in for a little hair there so it kind of gives a little more definition that's why I love working with transparent colors because they're so forgiving and they just layer and layer and layer and just get darker let's do this other one this looks so 80s but I love it I like that I'm just gonna put this in here so that I can get it going I come back to it not as hard defining it forgot to do on this guy that is more of a harder see like that just like that that's why I love these things I just want just a hint of a line there you go a little bit just a little bit do the same with this and there's that little little dark phone jump right there I know you guys like my little add a little and you guys didn't see that now I really can't I just added some tone right there all right so let's I'm gonna have to I'm gonna bring this purple all the way up here maybe a little more dramatic than the usual it's gonna look different because I have this a little bit offset but so let's put some black in here we're just about out anyway so it's good normally I wouldn't use black which I probably not because there's too much black in here anyways I'm gonna use shading gray transparent shading gray this is just it's a very harsh shading gray I should I should say like that's the original purple I'm just gonna not fill it up but I'm gonna put enough in there to make a difference probably not the way to mix paint but that's yeah it's a big difference that's funny because it's still it's still kind of purple but that's the best way to darken up purple just add to the purple you know a nice shading you don't want to do black because in black with this takeover and then we get super dark and this is about the point when when you know what I'm gonna do that I'm gonna get this out sharpen it a little bit and I'm going to add just some highlights just a little bit so that that part is highlighted just enough and then when you do when you start putting the black over it it'll kind of cover it so it'll it'll even give it a better almost like there's a little bit of a glow to it like a shine and then you come back in with the pencil and hit it again just in the center you're not trying to do the whole thing again but you want it to be a gradual glisten I guess you could say and then if you want I'll probably do this with a paint pen just because this is kind of cosmic kind of spacey I'll probably just go and just dot wherever the highlight would be the brightest like I'll do the eyeball here I'm just gonna make up I have the the saturation turned up on my camera so I'll turn that down here in a minute just so you can kind of see this isn't that bright I mean it's bright but this looks like he's got pink eye in the video and I'm doing this because that I've saturated that this board with that transparent paint you just put so much and you layer and you layer that that color pencils not gonna want to stay on there and I could if I wanted probably put just a little bit of a matte spray down and let it dry that's if you want something to stay but I'm not really worried about that right now all right all right so what I'm gonna do is just imagine where that shadow because the shadow normally is right about here I'm gonna kind of just dotted in I'll probably put something there put a little of that transparent so it gives it a shadow and then I'm gonna put that highlight right underneath that I'm not trying to fill this in like super because sometimes it's really like dark here there might be one over here a little bit and then a small one because really this is just a reflection of what's standing in front of this person you know it's not like a real dot unless there's a ring light in front of her a little bit of a highlight in here to make this a little bright up the eyes a little bit and I'm gonna probably put one couple little moist little eye things here because it's normally a little glistening up there definitely went over here and then kind of give this a little bit this I highlight these eyelashes here I always tell people if you don't think it matters do it everything matters and a lot of this is gonna get covered up by the dark but I don't mind it's still gonna be there you'll still be able to see it and kind of drift it off you know always got a kind of color of these little guys in just because that's where that there's light coming from down here white in here for highlight and eyeball and then I love doing this one that separates the lower from the upper and then it gives it you can get that really nice shadow right here and you can put a shadow highlight wherever you want it you know I feel like I'm sitting with somebody talking so different just talking to nobody basically but if you're watching I appreciate it and I hope this helps you it's helped me and that's the main reason I'm I do these videos because I know people out there I'm just started you know and it's difficult a lot of people don't want to tell you their secrets and how they do it and our channel isn't about that and if you can do it better than me then man more power to you just give me a shout-out if I teach you how and you run with it and make it your own and I know it sounds sappy but that would help me sleep at night right I'm gonna do just a little bit right here just because I like doing this one that's fun we'll bring it a little closer for this one see how I'm really not pushing that hard I'm just kind of scribbling for one you really can't get too hard of a edge with this with this pencil because it's not like it's an oil pencil where it will draw on no matter what so just a hint just to just to make it look nice I'd like to try to make those a little different because I see what the light source where it's coming from how it hits your eye actually I didn't do this to the other eyelashes this gives it just a hint and then when you go back over with the black it kind of covers it up but it still makes it look like it's just popping off there so it's not bad at all a bad little tip that would be my hairbrush if you hear that this black here you know what I didn't put any of that up there in the other eyebrow did I didn't want to be so weird painting sitting down I'm so not used to this remember this is still transparent so it's gonna layer but it's definitely gonna get darker you'll you'll see the difference that would be my alarm miss you know what don't forget to put this on no matter what you're doing we've learned it less than many times so using this if you wonder what I'm using this for it gets it to where you can have a nice hard edge right like in the spot like that because if you just sit there and do that chances are that paint's gonna come over here and it's not gonna leave that little highlight if you hold it off of your piece just enough it'll give it a real nice like a nice little soft line even better than if you're just like lightning lightly airbrushing the black just goes over that white just enough to make a difference all looks really long see how the black the shading just darkens it in and just it just enhances it it doesn't take it over it doesn't doesn't just paint over it just gradually darkens it in you don't want to spray it over that white it's not covering it like it like in it all right so right a little bit for getting those cans are back in there a little bit of this because it's not gonna show up that much more it definitely gets you some definition here just kind of scribbling in here just to give it some highlight couple in here give you some of these little divots maybe just highlight this little guy just a little bit and then this one I love this the bridge right there it's always fun I'm gonna take the Posca pen and just hit little bitty parts where I I feel like would be super bright anything crazy see you just if you just give that eyelash just a little bit of an outline like underneath it it pops it out it gives it that more little oomph there's your little highlight there just a little bit power right there that looks nice see you just barely hit that barely underneath the eyelash and it I mean it brings it right out a little bit this one a little bit sorry if my camera's shaking it's attached to my bench need to figure out some way to not have that give some definition to these eyebrows just I'm just barely just hitting them just wherever I feel there needs some kind of definition or highlight or something it's not anything that you need to do all right so I'm gonna take this let's give a little bit I'm gonna take this white Posca pen and just hit some of these little highlights I'm not gonna like color man and I'm just gonna and this is a good thing about Posca pen is if it's too stark you can let it set for a second you can just kind of damp it man and it tones it down give me a couple highlights in here I always like to put just a dab right here to really make that little eye I think stick out I'll just do a dot here dot here I mean it just pops everything out even if you want these to stand out in between your eyelashes over that man look at that you just they just pop out it just pops it right out you put a little dot between these eyelashes and it separates them to right there just really pop it out I like it what I really want to do is put a shadow make it a little bit more serious I guess you could see the one that's meant for that you can make these longer let's see see how that just fits perfect I'm gonna just do you might not think you're putting any color down but you are and just gives it that little ink and just down make it a little bit more serious darken that out darken these eyelashes up a little bit there you go what if I put like octopus tentacles I don't think I do want to want to outline one of these we have a couple of these in gold I'm waiting on this come out just so you can kind of see the actual put you on the full screen and I'm gonna take some of this saturation out it's not even up all the way just super bright it's still bright it's a little better but it still looks like this in person it's still bright but I think I'm done I don't want to do anything else to it like it I'll probably put a flood coat over it of resin and be done with it I really like it sign it to see here guys in on this they don't care but I really like this piece so I'm glad you hung out and watch me paint it so there you go I love it y'all have an awesome night or awesome morning depending on where you're from and I will guys I will guys I will see you guys and gals on the next one thanks for showing up be kind of one another you never know what somebody's going through y'all have an amazing night
