@@twofacecomix It’s not fun. The last time I did it was with 4 people in color and it tore the paper in half somehow. But they were okay with me just taping it up from the back. I think they knew how frustrating it was. Thank god for understanding people sometimes.
I’m having trouble getting the neo color smooth on the paper. Can you make a video demonstrating that please? I already tilt it to the side and have a foam board under my paper but it still comes out rough.
Absolutely! Although, to be 100% transparent, I am holding off on doing videos on how to color caricatures because I want those videos to be super comprehensive. But here are some tips that might help you now: 1. Use smoother paper. Hammermill makes a smoother paper that allows the Neo Colors to go on smoother. 2. Shape the stick. Ive noticed that when I shape the stick to have a more squared edge, it prevents making those rough strokes. 3. Make spheres! Make circles with a marker, and make a color gradient sphere with the Neo Colors. It’s all about gradients anyways! The more control you can have over your gradients - the better it will look. Also, while practicing this, work on your color palette. I’ve found several pallets that I still use just because of doing this exercise. 4. Realize every second you practice you gain experience. It’s good that you’re honest with yourself and you want to boost your skill on coloring. You realized your problem. Now it’s time to solve it. You’re going to improve far better by taking the time to just sit down and practice. Errors are not a bad thing. I get it’s hard to see it like that because us artists are super critical. But treat it like a video game. You can’t level up your character to 100 without first slaughtering some molerats. So just put 10 minutes in a day, solely focusing on coloring and I promise you will notice a difference.
What kind of material is the drawing board on the bob lite easel? And do you guys use any kind of mat or foam board under your paper to make the marker lines or coloring smoother? Btw I love your videos and I look forward to them each week
@@antpag237 Brilliant Question! The drawing board is Aluminum Composite. It has a has a plastic core, sandwiched between two aluminum sheets. It’s super lightweight. As far as what we use under the sheets, we use a foamy sheet if we are going to color the caricature. This foamy sheet allows the color sticks to go on far smoother. Works perfectly with Crayola Color Sticks or Neo Color I I appreciate you for watching! Keep commenting! You have awesome questions!
super nice that they happened to have 1 of everything you needed left! Great video man
Great video! Keep 'em coming!
AJ's cool. He did a caricature of me in 2020 at a company event (pre-covid). It turned out GREAT!!
Love these videos!
