I got the salt scrubbed off, unfortunately it also stripped off the maroon craft acrylic I had applied as a final body color.  On the positive side, I think the remaining chips of maroon add character to the overall look.

I've never tried the salt technique ,I've used the hair spray technique on two or three builds. I really like your results! I think that is beautiful! Can't wait to see more!

The salt thing is a trick that SOME watercolor artists use for texture, primarily for sunlight glistening off snow.  The paper has to be somewhere between wet and dry for it to work right. Knowing the right moment is the skill.

Beats me how you can know where to cut, lengthen, shorten, or whatever. I guess that separates the excellent builders from the so so builders. This one is really looking good so far!
