I love the way you laid this out. 3c2qtp is a wonderful way to organize what we are doing! Brilliant. Also 5:21 I have not done it with paint supplies but with a large container of BBQ sauce. I got it on the roof as well as everywhere else. Did you check the ceiling?

@@flyingmonkeys9774 While that is 100% true the outside of the paint how it interacts with the black is what makes this technique. I can see that and compare that without the marble portion. Once I master that than the marble can be added to make the technique complete.

Ich bin sicher, dass es eine Möglichkeit gibt, dies mit deutschen/europäischen Produkten zu tun. Viel Glück.

I discovered Denni Jo when she had about 300 followers. I was lucky enough and got the result straight away, using products i could find in Greece, if for any help to all of you struggling, I use 1 part Amsterdam titanium white paint, 1 part Vallejo pearl medium, a little owatrol, 1,- 1,5 part satin enamel in white (not the strong one you have in the states) and water to thin. It reminds me of melted cheese at first, but water thins it just fine. My black base is usually with the very cheap "Artistico" medium and amsterdam lamp black (i use artistico pouring medium only in base colors like that)

Hi David, thanks a lot for the work you put into sharing your experiments with us. I love to understand the "whys" of how fluid acrylics work. Also thanks for sharing the "oops" moment with the Floetrol. Makes you seem more human... we all make mistakes. Keep up the good work! Oh, and Pebeo is pronounced pee-bee-oh. Notice the macron diacritic marks on the paint tube... both 'E's are long vowel sounds. Again, thanks for all your work. I really enjoy seeing your experiments!

Thanks for another informative video and using Denni Jo's ghostly pour to demonstrate 3C2QTP. I've tried to replicate pours, including yours, with mixed results. I get so excited trying something new that testing seems to fly out the window. Just gotta rein myself in sometimes.

@LeftBrainedArtist

Жыл бұрын

Reining in myself is one of the hardest things to do for sure.

Your experiments are very valuable especially to people who have not had your vast experiences. I also noted that once all the paint with mixture have the same WEIGHT that is not enough to have a successful outcome. After that, the paint mixture needs to be checked and tested and modified. If I am correct then the WEIGHT of all the paints. may change. Only the right consistency for a given pour will matter. Am I correct? David if I may suggest you may wish to put some saran wrap over your scale that will keep the paint on that rather than the scale.

@LeftBrainedArtist

11 ай бұрын

You can have different weights but the same consistency. Have the right set of both is the key to getting the results you want. 1st I would focus on consistency and getting those locked in. Then you can work on varying the "weight" or density of a mixture to get your desired cells/lacing/effects etc.

Thanks! I enjoy your instruction very much. I did the same thing with paint last week that you did with the floetrol. Sure did make my job of “touching up” the inside of my craft closet a whole lot bigger.

@@LeftBrainedArtist for the cloudy effect I failed. For the Dutch pour here is my trick: 15g paint + 15g water + 10 drops of liquitex slow-dri fluid (I used Amsterdam). Covering the paint with the base a little bit before blowing. Other brands I would use 60% paint with 40% water. I really had amazing result by adding liquitex slow-dri (on the bottle they recommend 25% I didn’t I put just drops: 10 for 30g (paint and water).

Weird how something like that makes all the difference isn't it?

Another great video and you're result wasn't so bad at all. I'm wondering why you chose to spin rather than use the marble as she did. Both methods would give different results? I'm really sorry but I laughed when you shook the floetrol without a lid. btw I use an old aquarium net that I cut up and fixed to the floetrol bottle with an elastic band. Works great to keep those lumps away and is not as fine as the tights I was using to start with so I still get a good flow rate. Thanks for another great video.
