Are there any spray varnish options you could use? That would eliminate unwanted brush strokes

I want a crapton of Monster High and Ever After High dolls for customization stock...

Kaderin Triste 01-17-2018 10:15 PM

I mean....I still have my crapton of them that I think I offered to you last year...

@Kaderin: It is hard to estimate the material costs besides the canvas because I use so little of the paint on the sizes I have made so far. Like I use a little blop of paint but was it 1/100th of the tube? 1/10? I dunno! Same with the flow medium. It cost about 7 dollars for the bottle but how much of the bottle is going into each painting is a mystery to meee. Aaany way:

Reusable supplies:
A tube of paint is about $3.50-ish
The flow medium was $7 for the one quart bottle
Tap water for thinning is negligible

Single use supplies:
A dollar a piece for the glass I was using (not sure how big they are cuz I don't remember 5x7 at the largest maybe?)
1.55 for an 8x10 canvas board
80 cents for a 6x6 canvas board
1.60 a piece for the stretched canvas I got but they were crap so not sure about selling them.

@Mekatra: There are but I tend to get puddling with them since I suck at knowing how close or far to be from my painted surface cuz I am awful at everything.

@Den The obvious solution is to rob a random little girl's toy box.

I have taken a screenshot of that information to use for math at a time when my wrist isn't screaming in agony.

Damies 01-18-2018 04:40 PM

I hope your wrist is better today, and I hope it's not broken. ; n;

Kaderin Triste 01-18-2018 04:59 PM

The base of my hand, near my thumb looks maybe a little swollen and it feels pretty much the same as yesterday.

If it doesn't improve at all by tomorrow ( or maybe Monday/Tuesday ish), I'll have it actually checked.

Damies 01-18-2018 07:49 PM

Go ASAP if it's not getting better! ; 0;

I mean, it's hard to plan hospital trips around 2 jobs when you can't afford to miss a shift...
Plus it's cheaper to go during the week, if I recall, because it's emergency room only on the weekends and that's more expensive.

Damies 01-18-2018 09:49 PM

I hate that this country is fucked up about medical expenses. People shouldn't have to worry about the cost of urgent care.

Den 01-18-2018 10:10 PM

what sucks is that with Medicaid, there's a financial limit, so if you make too much money, you can't be on it.

Kaderin Triste 01-19-2018 12:31 AM

Well, even with my two jobs, I still am on medicaid, so....yeah.

Damies 01-19-2018 01:14 AM

I should paint tonight... I haven't painted in a few days... hmmmm colors colors....

Kaderin Triste 01-19-2018 01:15 AM

Paint something in Derpy colors!
8D

Damies 01-19-2018 03:02 AM

Define Derpy colors... like how would you describe his coloring? I'd probably have to mix custom colors which is not my strong point.

Kaderin Triste 01-19-2018 04:13 AM

Cream, pastel mint green, pastel pink.
The colors of Derpy.
XD

Or galaxy colors (purples, blues, teals, black, etc.). That would also look cool.
