Airbrush Technique Issue 12

By Gerald Radmer www.people.freenet.de/airbrush Material List: Reference Photo, layout block A3, commercial artist illustration board Schoellershammer 4R 40x50cm, Tischstaffelei, projector, pencils, coloured pencils Chroma of Faber Castelle, Airbrushfarbe Schmincke Aerocolor, skalpell, radierstift, Knetradierer, brush, mixing pallet. Step 1: Here we have the photo we will use as reference for this painting, from this I make a pencil sketch. Do your best to capture the shade portions and detail as seen in the small photo. By means of a projector I transfer the picture onto commercial artist illustration board, 4R Von Schoellershammer which is 40x50cm in size. We will start the painting process by using one neutral grey color. Step 2: Now we will start to bring the horse to life using several different brown tones. I begin with diluted ochers (one Teil color reduced with five parts water). Afterwards the mix is reduced to 1:3 and 1:1. Subsequently, burned Sienna (1:2) is laid on. We will move onto a darker brown for our next layer, um- bra. First again at 1:5, then 1:3 and in the end 1:1. Between the individual layers we emphasize the high lighted areas again and again by erasing; I use several different kind of eraeser’s for this. http://www.people.freenet.de/airbrush
