Transcript

So now we want to work on some outlining and some detail work. With my number six brush, I'm just going to mix my color here on my palette. Again, I'll put some water on my palette, and I'm going to pick up some of the sepia. Put it down I want a nice rich color here. So added quite a bit of pigment here. And I also want to mix in a little of that vermillion hue with it just to help tie those colors together and a little bit more.

And now I'm going to switch to my smallest brush my number one brush. So I want a nice sharp point. And I'm going to start outlining my image. I'll move my paper around to make it easier and I just want to barely touch the brush to the image to create that outline. So we'll start with the stomach area. Think it's a beautiful shape.

I'll go all the way around, following right to the tail. Continuing down connecting my lines when I feel I need to rotate the paper to make it easier, do that. continue all the way with this beautiful rounded shape. Again, barely touching the paper. Then I'll work on these little detailed shapes right on the back here. Flip it over, keep doing the back in the back of the crown here.

And then finally the jaw and the head. Let as much pigment as I want to get that rich color now and add a few little spots here to really accentuate it. I'm going to outline the back of this stripe here. And again I really want to play up that beautiful shape kind of like making emphasizing the belly When I have that done, I'm going to pick up a lot of pigment on my brush with a nice sharp point. I'm just going to make some dots here and there. I'll make a few freckles down the nose.

Make a little parallel line to the eye just behind the eye. And then I'll make some freckles over here. I'm going to do it on the back spot of each of these little crown pieces. I think I'll connect them as well. And then going down the body. I'm just going to make little sections of three dots here and there.

When I get to the back part here, I'm going to add the same dots that I did on top of the crown just to make it coordinated. And then I'll just add a few more down the tail, again with my groupings of three. Maybe add some on this side as well. And when I get to the base of the tail, I'm going to add some dots, just like we did in the crown and we'll let this layer completely dry.
