:D ohh, I sooo bow to your mystical ancient Chinese guru-osity!

I've got to try that canvas effect.

And might I say, nice job on the ocean scenes!

Mike Thanks a lot, but that's not me, it is the prog.
I am so excited.
Canvas is super easy and watercolour is really quick to learn.
Put drying speed on almost 0% fluidity about 80% and blending up 100%
Brush 1 only.
Play around and find your way.
Using the eraser wit this high blending is like sucking the brush dry to get water away from your picture.

Oh dear.
That's insane! I can't stop. Verve and me waited for each other ;)
Something different. 50 min.

Booooaaaahhhh! Dude! Knacki?!? That's crazy cool! :shock: Damn....or: Daiummm! :lol:
I love this so much, the softness and sharpness at the same time, the colors..what beautiful shades and nuances, yet it's strong. This is a piece of delicate art, Knacki, straight up! :D

Holy crap, I totally didn't see the new chinese style painting!? When I was scrolling up I thought it was a scan of some original art to show an example, hahahahaha... OMG?! Knacki, man, you're completely exploding here! :lol: WONDERFUL! :D

Pfff...man, you really got that under control! Masterpieces!
I've tried a canvas texture test for the oils, too, and it turned out really interesting, inspired by your excellent ideas! Hmmm...guess I could post it.
Anyway: CONGLATS + YOU TOTARRY LOCK! :oops: (inappropriate?) :?
