Bloody Sword

Ink & Watercolor Painting

This is a method I use now and then. It's easy in theory but requires a bit of patience. I first paint free hand with watercolors, no sketching. Then I follow the nuances of all the different shades created, and outline them. Depending on how many differences in nuances you see (and how much patience you have ^^) you can take the outlining very far. I like how it creates a sort of mosaic, or "glass stained" feeling to the painting, or makes it looks withered and like it's falling apart. I "invented" this method all by myself in my teens, and I haven't seen anyone else doing it exactly like this, so far. But sure, someone else has probably thought of it as well, independant of me.
