Anyone out there have any experience with "oil paint pencils"? I'm probably just going to have to play with them but I figured I'd see if anyone has any tips before I get started.

I think I'll post this in my deviantART journal too, just in case my few watchers have experience.

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
5. Don't search around and look for the "coolest" book you can find. Do what's actually next to you.

"If none of the specifiers BOTH, LEADING, or TRAILING are given, BOTH is assumed."

I've drawn this lady a few times before, comparing them would probably show a great deal of improvement (particularly the first one and this one). Anyway, my nearly spotless snow leopardess, Nakyta (just 'Kyta to most people). For those people that have no idea what I'm talking about, Kyta is my original "rock star" character, she either has naturally very light markings (so as to be practically nonexistent) or bleaches them out (or both). She dies her hair unnatural colors.

I'm tempted to play "wait and see of anyone recognizes her instrument" but I don't get enough responses to make it fun so I'll just tell people to look here if they are curious.

I'm thinking either burgundy red or French violet oil finish on the body of that bass. Okay, maybe ocean blue. Or a custom color like a mix of the violet and blue.

And yes, she wears a pentacle and triple moon as well as a Latin cross.

[Edit, 1:33 am: A half-arsed color test done with the sketchy pencils. Kinda cool I think.]
