      • Hi Ali

        I am anxious to give this a try. I feel it is a bit over my artistic skill level, but my bet is that I will learn a lot.

        Love

          @larry Hi Larry 😊

          I already know you’re an extraordinary artist, and that’s exactly why I’m excited to see you try this. When you step slightly outside your comfort zone, that’s where real growth happens.
          I’m confident that once you give this a try, you’ll discover new tricks, new control, and maybe even a new level in your skill that you didn’t realize was there.
          Trust the process. You’ve got this 👍

                    @Jay Hi 😊

                    I am really glad you liked it. Thank you for the kind words.
                    For the studs, it is all about contrast and clean edges. First build a smooth mid tone base. Then push the darkest dark right next to the highlight. Finally lift a tiny sharp highlight with an eraser. That strong light and dark contrast makes it look metallic and raised 👍 Try this on a small test circle first and see how it feels. Let me know how it goes 🔥

                  • Wow!. One day I will try that tutorial. At the moment I need to continue practicing and improving my skills.
