I think what makes them look old is the painting style, (old school watercolor technique) combined with only using a 1" or 1/2" wash brush. I did just find a brand new #1o filbert so that seems like it might be my new favorite brush. I use alot of daniel Smith quinocrodone gold to brighten areas its one of my favorites I can tell that the pics arn't perfectly color accurate, thers alot of sublties that can be seen in person. I just cant pick up on the camera. https://tikicentral.com/uploads/3734/44e0b79e.jpg [ Edited by: Sophista-tiki 2009-01-08 11:39 ]
