Meanwhile the
various cards are all made of nice,
textured stock, with my only complaint being that certain ones use a different artists whose style I just can't
gel with.
The acrylic paint dries almost as fast as the wax paint cools, and by using combinations of no
gel, some
gel or a lot of
gel — mostly semigloss — with
various paints that are by nature opaque or semi-transparent, I can create some of the same play of opaque, translucent and transparent hues that I do with wax, with something of the same built - up
texture.
