Chapter 17 - Painting - Part 4

So with the painting complete, it was time to make the hard edge. I took a fine brush and began to paint along the feather so it would become a hard edge. I used the paint straight from the jar and cleaned the brush a few times.

It took me about another hour and the edging was complete. One thing I really like about this approach is that it pretty controllable. There’s not a huge time pressure when either airbrushing or hand painting so you can do it in increments if you have time constraints (like fixing my daughter’s Barbie dolls).

Up Next: Dry brushing
