Beginner cutesy goldfish + simple one stroke frog

Post by Coral3 on Thu Jan 12, 2012 5:25 pm

Painted this goldfish last night and (apart from the 'splashes') I kind of like how it turned out. It's essentially the one Lisa Joy Young does at the end of her shark you tube tutorial, although I did change the lips ever so slightly. I've been face painting for 3 weeks (with no other painting experience). Anyway, just thought I'd share! Smile

Wow! Three weeks and already that good! Kudos to you Smile

The line work, tear drops, dots and shading is very impressive, especially for that length of time!

Nice work Smile

Yep... the blue isn't working, BUT that goldfish is so sweet.

Agree, you don't need the blue. Bigger bubbles headed towards the corner of the eye?

Thanks everyone, and thanks for the pointers re the blue.

Bekahcat, I used TAG Frangipani one stroke for the orange. Somehow I can't help but feel like I'm 'cheating' using one strokes, but I do love them! My black is Snazaroo (for now - until I use it all up and get some TAG black to try).

And yes, that is me Martha.
Very Happy

...and here's a little froggy I painted on my arm today. Used TAG one stroke leaf white. Feedback/suggestions/criticism welcome! (I'd love to do a frog with/in a pink waterlily flower somehow, but am yet to figure out how to do that, so he's just a frog for now!)

That it is so cool! I love it and it looks simple enough...i'm going to give it a try! I love the fly buzzing on the side and how the frog looks like he's just about to stick his tongue out!lol....great job!... I do love the fish too!
