Warpainting tutorials Well if the masking is in place properly it would not bee needed. This is only to reinsure you that it won't seep through. But when using Acrylic paint its easily fixed when it does by just cleaing it off with a bit of the acrylic thinners. So in my opinion its a waste of time.

@MalinOfSweden 9 жыл бұрын

Yes, exactly. Tamiyas tape usually gives really nice edges provided that you made sure its sticks properly. I guess that's the beauty of acrylics and the reason to why you picked it for this tutorial. By the way, what kind of audio setup do you use for recording your sound?

Can somebody tell me if thats the issue or could it be something else? .
