    Hi Rob, for me is very important to use destilled water not tap water because contain a lot of scale. Some times I use 70% destilled water, 30% alcohol of 70 grades, and few drops of liquid vaselin, it works perfectly

    I really like these full length videos! The real time work and hearing your thoughts as you work I think are more informative to me. Not sure about what everyone else thinks? Keep up the great work!

    This pin-up is wonderful, but I doubt this is the ideal subject for a complete beginner (like me). I was much more comfortable to choose less precise and more forgiving references, like an African mask or a Balinese face of a monster... But thanks so much for this lesson!

    One of your best tutorials Rob. Just shows what can be achieved without Gesso or erasers. You mention your art programme - what do you use? Can you give the link for the image?
    And a Happy Easter bud.

    Hey Dred. I'm going to the prestigious Dru Blair School of Realism in Sept through Oct in South Carolina, USA. I got Dru's Custom Iwata Custom Micron too! It's a custom version of the Custom Micron. Don't know if you ever heard of Dru Blair but he's the guy that actually worked with Createx to develop the Illustration Colors line.

    Absolutely amazing piece of artwork. I would love to think I could get the same out of my Infinity..You may of heard this saying before, but when I once said to my art tutor. “It is difficult to know when a piece of work is completed” He replied. “My boy, art is never finished, merely abandoned!”

    You can make stencils out of old x-ray films. They will last forever because they're made to hold up against chemicals.
