Hey syd I figured I would ask you if you would like to become a judge for an upcoming contest I am holding. To celebrate the summer time and to give everybody something fun to enjoy together this year.

Hi there, im sure this seems like a silly question but could someone tell me what all three of the colors listed for the reddish/pink are. I can assume red and white are written there but im not sure what the third would be and want my paint to be aa similar as i can make it to the original color.

If you’ve been doing pre-shading panel lines for a while, you might wanna try something new out. Black basing. Youtube has a few clips. It’s more work.
