Gouache paintings like never before
Posted by staff / January 28, 2010Kazuki Takamatsu is putting an entirely new face on gouache, a type of watercolor paint (only slightly thicker). The paintings, I should stress, are simply unbelievable—most don’t even realize that they aren’t just another CGI. There has been a fair debate over whether Takamatsu uses 3d renderings on which to base his paintings, but the paintings themselves are, believe it or not, just gouache.

I’m working on a gouache painting right now. Surprising, you can use color pencils on the gouache paint for similar effect as well.
