Watercolor Pencils appear at first to be normal colored pencils, but when water is added to them, they give the beautiful look of watercolors. They might seem tricky to use at first, but when used correctly, the end result are pretty good!
Watercolor pencil techniques: --There are many but these ones are the most common-
1.-color the drwg by layering colors and then with a brush and plain wáter paint over the area
2.- Rubbing your brush against the tip of the wet pencil as substitute for watercolor pans
3.- Use the pencil dry to add details on the watercolor painting (useful for finest lines)
4.- Wetting the paper in advance in a previous spot in which you want to add color from the watercolor pencil
For the following Project will use basically technique No 1
This is the result regarding this process Main steps are as indicated below:
1.- Draw a pencil sketch of your subject. It does not need to be too detailed, but do include major lines and points. I did use black prismacolor pencil for reference contourn helping me with a rule for some reference lines on it----
2.- Now shade the picture with watercoloring pencil accordingly (I did use just black color for this particular car) it is easy to get the different values needed as if you drawing with a normal pencil
Step 3.- Some lines are made with my ink pen; not all, but just the important ones and also where shadowing lines are quite black to complement the car basic lines (see following picture) these lines will remain for a better reference through out next steps
(Note. Create a chart of colors. With each of the colors of pencils that you will be using, shade a small square and paint over it with water. This will allow you to see how your colors will look, as some colors look completely different once water has been added)
Step 4.- As you´ll see in next piture, I start to add wáter with my wet "filbert type) brush and the partial result through out front bump ---paint water over your picture. Make sure that your brush strokes go with the contours of your subject. Start out with a little bit of water, and add more to produce a more washed out effect. The more water is added, the lighter the color will become and the less you will see your pencil lines. However, if too much water is used, the colors will run. Use a smaller brush for detailed áreas
Step 5.- With your base color, make a second layer over your picture. This time, leave blank the areas of highlight and shade in your shadowed áreas
Once your initial layer of water has dried, you can dip the pencils themselves into the water to add areas of intense color or details. Doing this provides a very strong color, and it is difficult to hide mistakes
So far the vehicle alone it is ready and you can leave like that, however I decided to add a background with just watercoloring brushing
Additional steps.- If you wish to, you can go back over your picture now with another layer of shading colors. You may or may not want to add water to this layer I did for color reflections over the car
