Will's sketch of a stag beetle to use with our free tutorial.
 
We will use the  colours from the new Natural Earth Pigment Matchbox Paint Set. They are Burnt Sienna, Caput Mortuum and Yellow Ochre. Also our beloved Ultramarine Blue and Burnt Umber.
 
A small round brush would work really well, Will will be using a size 2.
 
Simply download and print onto watercolour paper.
 
Your printer will need to have PGBK (pigment black) and printed with the grayscale setting on (in your print options) to avoid the sketch bleeding when wet.
 
If you don't have such a swanky printer why not print out and trace onto watercolour paper.
 
For personal use only, not to be used in any other way including resale.
