IF I do more PYO’s after this one, then I will make my own thread, but for now, here is my first PYO Kirin! Over the black of the body, I used a metallic copper, and a metallic bronze to do some coloring over the black. All of the paint on him is metallic.

Thanks!! I didn’t quite antique, although the idea is similar. I took a dry paintbrush, dipped it in copper paint and then I took the dipped paintbrush and gently smeared it into a paper towel until the brush seemed dry again, then I took the brush and applied it gently over the black-painted fur so that the paint could highlight the raised details of the fur. I did that all over, then I took some bronze paint and essentially did the same thing on the muzzle, mane, ears, hooves, back, and tail, but I didn’t do it as lightly. The bronze areas are the lighter parts on the fur.
Oooh! I love the fur!
Read my books! Volume 1 and 2 of A Dragon Medley are available now.

http://www.sarahjestin.com/feedbacklists.htmI’m loving the fur- it’s sort of rustic looking (although, you said it was metallic paint, so maybe less rustic looking in person?).
