Hey, there!
I'm back in the studio creating new video content and can I just say how excited I am to share this video with you! This topic is one I think has bugged everyone at some point, and it is the most asked question I receive:
"what metallic do you use?"
After years of sampling inks, I have finally found my favorites, but I have had to purchase quiet a few inks in the process. In this video, I swatch most of the metallic alcohol inks I've tried over the years so you can decide what ones will work best for you.
If you have been struggling to find the perfect metallic to use when painting with alcohol inks. Look no further, I have created THE resource for deciding which alcohol ink metallic you should purchase.
