Paint a Druid Drum Authentically
While some people prefer to keep their druid drum natural, others like to add something personal to it. You can do this by painting your own design on the skin of the druid drum.
What do you need?
-pencil
-Acrylic paint or acrylic markers
-brushes
-spray varnish
How to paint your drum:
Step 1:
Draw the outline of the design with a pencil. You can also create a stencil first and trace it onto the drum.
Step 2:
Start coloring your design with the acrylic paint and brushes, or the acrylic markers. Use thin layers. It's better to apply two thin layers than one too thick layer.
It can be a bit tricky to hold the drum while there is still wet paint on it, as it's easy to accidentally get paint on your hands or fingers. You might then accidentally transfer it to a place where it shouldn't be. You can always let each section dry first before moving on to the next for a neat result.
Step 3:
To protect the paint, you can apply a layer of varnish over it. We recommend spray varnish, as it is light and leaves a thin layer.
