That boy is on FIRE!

is that black gesso or just black acrylic paint as a base you're using?
I found the results with black rattlecan or black gesso to work a lot better
the rattlecan lays down smoother than the acrylic and still doesn't soak up the colors-they just lay on top...FLAT!
but the black gesso soaks the paint up a bit in the most delicious way!

Anyways...gotta get back to work!
Can't wait to see the animation someday!

I've been using black acrylic. I feel it worked better on canvas than on the wood I am now using! Gotta go buy some black gesso!
