🧑🎨 Expert Tips
- Choose a Smooth Stone: Pick a smooth, medium-sized rock for the best painting surface. Uneven textures can make details harder to apply cleanly.
- Outline with Pencil: Lightly sketch the chick’s shape with a pencil before painting. This helps keep proportions balanced and guides your paintwork.
- Use Posca Paint Pens: These pens offer bright, bold colors and are great for clean lines. Yellow, orange, white, and black are ideal for chick features.
- Layer Colors for Depth: Start with a light base coat and let it dry fully. Then add vibrant layers to build a solid, even finish without smudges.
- Add Fine Details: Use a thin black paint pen to outline the chick and add eyes and beak. Small touches bring character and clarity to the face.
- Seal the Rock: Once fully dry, apply a clear spray or varnish to protect the paint. This also gives your chick a nice shine and longer life.
