Acryla gouache and oh the possibilities! (Patreon)

I've experimented with very thin acrylics before (Paul's Laerminuial, and a few pieces in Cannae), but haven't really pursued that in years, mainly because I didn't like the shiny finish. Now look at that! With acrylic gouache, you can detail, shade and render the entire thing in monochromatic colours - and then you can just add colour. So much control! And it dries totally matte and looks like watercolour - but is waterproof. 

And a tiny little spot of paint lasted me for horse and knight. That makes it less painful to clean your palette every night.
