How do I make metallic shades with oil pastels?
I am using the 25-piece Sakura brand Cay-Pas expressionist set of oil pastels. While this is a very nice set of oil pastels, my current frustration is that I am unable to create metallic shades necessary for a school project. I understand how to make something look metallic through optical mixing, but the colors provided do not lend themselves to different shades of grey very easily. Help!
Well, as long as you have black and white there's always a way to do it. As you might know, to make a basic metallic look you only need 2 shades of gray, black (or a really dark gray) and white.
But if you don't like using gray, you can try with shades of lillac instead, and the darker one (which would act as black) could be a deep purple, almost looking like dark blue.
