I left the flash as a large white box, completely separate from the camera body since I wanted a hard edge. I filled the box with a series of warm and cool strokes up and down to mimic the reflections, darks splotches last and a couple warm glazes until it felt… like, aged enough? If that makes sense? I gave it a thick dark edge when I realized I’d missed the proportions a bit to cover my mistake (lol).
I’m realizing now, the whites are just paper, no gouache used at all.
The lenses I used a bit of masking since I wanted to try a controlled backwash to get an organic lens distortion, I tried on both lenses and they both more or less work imo to create that effect I was going for.
This is excellent! How did you do the whites in the flash?
