Amazing! How did you make the stars look so natural and glowy? I find whenever I do watercolours all the white parts turn into a huge mess, even if I use tape or masking fluid >.<

Have you ever tried Posca poster color markers?:D that's what I used to do the stars. They're water based so they mix with watercolors:) I first touched the marker on the surface of the wet watercolor painting to do the brightness of the stars, and then when the watercolor was fully dried I did it again. They're really great because they mark over any surface:) so I also use them sometimes to correct errors on my watercolor paintings.

Hmm, no, I haven't! Are these Posca markers worth purchasing? Ah, that's a really good idea, I'd love to try that out sometime - I love to include a nice starry sky in a great deal of my paintings. C: Thanks for the suggestion!

Yes:D definitely! Besides being a great complement to watercolor, and traditional art in general, they're cheap, something like $4-7 each depending on where you live. Since you want to do stars, I'd recommend you trying out the white one (PC-5M is the Posca type I used here, it's round-pointed). If you get along with it you could more effects with different colors:D
You're welcome:hug:
