Hi all! I am real beginner in the art of pinstriping and I want to learn how to paint pinstripes. First I went to Wizzzzard's course to learn basics. The course last only two days, but I have finnish master of art, Pekka Mannermaa's extremely good book, which I read at the same time as I try to learn basics.
Someone could wonder why I choose english for my blog, but I try to train my english as well as pinstriping. Pinstriping is very challenging and fun. At the beginning I start learning how to clean my brushes.(It is quite expensive if one can not clean his brushes, I have try it hard way too...)
|
Here are my brushes. In the middle of picture are those ones which i have start using last weekend at pinstriping course, Turku.(Actually i bought them from there.) |
|
Before I start, I wash mineral oil from brush with turpentine. |
|
I start training with One-Shot yellow... I also tried other paint , but this is better for training. |
|
When open containers, thinners are top, pigments and other heavier parts of paint are bottom. Stir well before use! |
|
It takes few minutes to get paint stirred well. It is better to do this carefully... |
|
Apply paint carefully to brush. After I have washed brush with turpentine, I dry brush before loading paint. |
|
First almost good line... after many, many tryouts... I realize that I need to start training only straight lines first, no too difficult at beginning...... Damnt!! |
|
How so simple shape can be so difficult?? Not even close symmetric.... |
|
Okay, I give up and start training scrolls, which are easier to me... but they are also so far what I think to do... |
|
This is what I think I need to do next and plenty... just training.... |
|
When i finished training, I washed brushes with turpentine and put oil to them last.... |
Not so bad I waiting for... Seems that my fingers are not so sensitive yet... That first session on my own was little frusfrating, but I wait for next one. The book is good help for, but this need really much training...
