        This week didn’t go to plan. My original intention had been to choose very strong vibrant palette and use the pencil setting to do a colour pencil version of the drawing. Unfortunately the pencil tool gave an opaque laying down of color rather than transparent. So I played some other brushes as an alternative. You can spot the colour pencil attempts early in the video! I will have a look at some of the settings and have another go at a colour pencil effect next week.

            Peter have you turned down the opacity of the pencil layer? Forgive me if I am telling you something you already know. Switching from different layers in life drawing would be a challenge in short poses. Nice work as usual.

                Thanks for that Bill. Actually I think what it needs is the “multiply” depicted in your photo. I am hoping to build it into the pencil, perhaps using the glazing option.

                    Peter I tried some things and the Multiply plus Glazed you suggested was the best solution thanks for that tip. Will you make a dedicated brush for this or it’s only a casual thing?
