What did I learn? There is a happy middle ground somewhere with the glazing medium. It is also easy to overwork things.
Getting tired, so need to head to bed while I am tired. Would like to hear how I could get better transitions. Or am I expecting to much - either of my current beginner skills or of the medium (brush, as opposed to airbrush) itself? Specifically, I am not happy with the sharp lines that I couldn't quite get rid of.
Did I glaze wrong going from blue to yellow to red?
Do I want to try to find a red with tinting strength closer to phthalo blue?
Should I try other blending techniques or should I hammer on glazing for a bit to get it down better?
Ok, off to bed, thanks!
