I've done it, but I don't know if the results were good. I could only get one layer of the pencils to stick. If I tried to apply the pencil to an area that already had a pencil mark on it, it wouldn't work--it wouldn't make a new mark over the previous one. The first mark would hold on fine. That trial was a few years ago, and I haven't used them since.

Of course, your results may vary.
 
Hi,



does any anyone knows if watercolour pencils (like Derwent) can be applied on top of acrylic paints with good results?



Cheers,

Paulo


Hi Paulo,
AK interactive do some specific pencils for augmenting the weathering process over acrylics. Lester in our club has done a few demo's with them and the results were very effect although all of these demo's were on armour and planes. I could see some specific uses for figures though.
cheers

So you paint with acrylics ( water based ) then you use pen then again water to disolve the drawing into a "blotch" and perhaps disolving the acrylic layer at the same time !
I would try first on a simple sheet of plastic to see the effects, must be very difficult to master .

Best and let us know
