Hi Myles...basic question I suspect but how do you go from colour to colour quickly enough before the paint deies? Do you have two brushes at once or are you using the same brush and washing the paint off between going from say gold to silver?

I'm pretty sure he uses a wet palette. I use one and have more issues with the paint being too wet than too dry but I'm in a very humid area

Very cool! The method definitely seems very approachable. In the video, you mention editing out your mistakes. For a future video, it would be interesting to see what mistakes you identify and how you correct them - especially since we as students will be making lots of mistakes :)

Hey Myles, what are your preferred brushes for metal detail work? I recently got some very nice sables but as many say, metallics shred sable.

I like using my usual Windsor and Newton. You just have to ensure that you clean your brushes with soap afterward. If you are looking for an alternative paint brush set that you don't mind destroying try the gears and games synthetics, or synthetic blends from Rosemary and Co.
