Fearless Leader: ok, well that's it for that experiment Fearless Leader: I'm thinking it needs to be taken to another step Fearless Leader: or Fearless Leader: now just to show you how different this same technique looks with different colors Fearless Leader: so this is a chevron flip with white and blue Fearless Leader: didn't come out wow Fearless Leader: but we can use it for something Fearless Leader: now what if we used black and gold? Fearless Leader: did the same chevron flip? lommomy left the room shannonowalker: Wow. Fearless Leader: now if we added a touch of green Fearless Leader: and blended it with the told Fearless Leader: then layered it with black Fearless Leader: we'd get this variation Fearless Leader: touch of gold, touch of green Fearless Leader: do a blend Fearless Leader: lay the blend down with black and then do the chevron flip Fearless Leader: new trick for me Fearless Leader: ok, so what happens when we take the brown out, just let green and gold do their thing? Fearless Leader: ready? Ann: yes shannonowalker: This should be good. Ann: very cool shannonowalker: Neat. I can tell the cam isn't picking up the depth in it, though, but I can use my imagination. Fearless Leader: his nose got bonked Fearless Leader: the point being Fearless Leader: the chevron flip will give you different patterns Fearless Leader: depending on if you're stacking flat sheets Fearless Leader: or if you're stacking jelly roll blends Fearless Leader: this leaf here, the gold and green Fearless Leader: the sections are jellyroll blends Fearless Leader: that were mashed Fearless Leader: then a separation vein sandwich sheet put over all of them Fearless Leader: then the chevron flip was done Fearless Leader: this effect gives you depth Fearless Leader: when it is just two dimensional Fearless Leader: big difference from just stacking flat sheets Fearless Leader: the one on the left, the leaf segments are jelly roll blends Fearless Leader: I'm just enchanted with the way it makes highlights and shadows Fearless Leader: so I'm at a logical break Fearless Leader: and am going to save log Ann: ok Fearless Leader: back Ann: wb twinmom94002 left the room Elise: that is just amazing!
