Lots of different things to think about deciding on how you want your rock to look …..
We have a post shared on the techniques page sharing 4 different ways of shading – today I am using two that are the dotting and dashes or lines method of shading.
You can use a darker colour like the emerald dots on the aqua or try different colours like the orange on the yellow.

Use a black colour pen and draw the face on the image, Great pens for outlines are Posca 1m, !mr or the 0.7m size in Tooli-Art or Artistro.
And if you want to add a touch of highlight – pop on a few dots and dashes of white paint .

Colour on your rock – I have just painted a nice even layer. You do not want to paint it to thick. The more layers on the rock the more chance it has of peeling off later as the water in the base evaporates. Click on the image below to find out how best to paint on rocks!
Shading makes all the difference to the end result. Adds depth to the Image.
I use clean water and a size 2 or 4 filbert taklon paintbrush click on the below image to learn the technique – or head to YouTube to watch how I do the shading.
