Weird Watercolor
Sep. 27th, 2025 12:28 amThis... is PB71, a pigment that's typically not used in watercolor - and now I know why. XD

I mean, after a lot of hard work on finding a binder composition from which the pigment doesn't immediately unmix before drying, I somehow managed to produce something that passes as watercolor, but also, this thing granulates a lot, to the point it's essentially useless unless you enjoy painting snowy landscapes or obscure meteorological phenomena. (Which I don't. But, hey, this has to be the best paint for snowy watercolor landscapes... It's very lightfast, too.) Whatever. It sure was an interesting experience.
