Yep that 's Dales' 32 coup - I finally got around to doing this painting. Here's the latest tikigodz ~ Well the idea is Acrylic is a water based paint best applied in washes of color. So, a mono chromatic under painting is only "color"-zed with color washes. Not a whole new painting. But, I'm still learning the tricky use of washes... to much paint, and you are just painting the whole darned thing again, too little, and you don't get enough color. So;.. my best use so far was on Frankenstein. I changed the colors of his hands and feet only with light wahes of color over fulled rendered under painting, Hope that helps with that question. Brad~
