While I focused earlier on the importance of the layering of colors, the finer details are equally important.  They continue to “breathe life” into the project down to the tiniest touch.  Watching Casey put on these final details, occasionally with a paintbrush instead of an airbrush, is absolutely fascinating to view.  Whether it’s a specifically painted vein coming out of the ear to make it look like a sensitive organ or a final epoxy on the eye that actually makes it look moist, these are absolutely the icing on the cake.

From the broad patterns to the finer details, watching Casey “breathe life” into his alien maquette is honestly an intoxicating experience.  As you watch each layer subtlety build on the next, it’s both a specific lesson on painting, as well as a perfect metaphor for the layering of art itself.  Enjoy.
