Ambassador pete Posted August 23, 2007 Ambassador Report Posted August 23, 2007 Probably not new to some of you but I have found that if I use a stylus with round ends(small ball/bigger ball) that I can get a really nice pear shading effect on Sheridan and other flowers. I don't even use the pear shader much anymore until I finish > THEN I go after it with one tap of the lined thumbprint. It allows me to make smoother and more natural "grooves" in the leaves and stems rather than walking the shader. pete Quote

Does the leather need to be kind of on the wet side for this to work? Thanks for the tip. . . L'Bum Quote
Ambassador pete Posted September 16, 2007 Author Ambassador Report Posted September 16, 2007 haven't noticed! I just case the leather and do it when I would normally pear shade. If done on the dry side it tends to burnish better but then again so it does when pear shading. In fact it burnishes better because you are rubbing rather than pounding. pea-aire' Quote
