Part 4
Got a good bit done. The third coat was dry so on tho details:
- Added Rapids to act as dam below trestle on creek.
- Now
comes the "Secret Sauce" - these 3 products are used to reduce the
glare and flat look of the water, create little eddies in the flow and
lastly to add a touch of sparkle back. Short stiff brushes are
preferred as you more dry brush / Highlight that paint. You want the
lines running with the water path around rocks and other objects. This
will establish the flow. Begin with Matte Mod-Podge, it is thin and
mainly cuts glare.
- Next
we highlight rapids with titanium white. This is a dry brush
technique. If you mess up it will wipe off if your gentle. Make sure
lines follow flow of water. This is what really gives the movement
impression so go light at first and add more as needed.
- Now to fine tune some more. Some of the rapids were not full as I wanted so went back and added more caulk.
Before
After
Time to Let it dry and hopefully revisit tomorrow evening after work. Hope this is useful information.
Thanks Cameron
