@@747JetJock I've been painting for a very long time, and I genuinely believe that there is no better paint available in the market today; truly superb!

They are cobalt blue, and paynes grey - available from all manufacturers, and this will work with cheaper student colours too so cobalt blue hue would be fine

Shame 😔 it might be worth sending them a message though - I should imagine that they still have the cut files

It absolutely does make sense! I've done a lot of oil painting over the years, but have settled on a heavy impasto style - and for a good while my knuckles were forever getting messy! Then I found the knife i pick up at 4:14. That one had a really deep dive on the neck, and the perfect angle on the foot... if you are planning to be standing in front of a canvas reaching straight out in front of you, then that neck depth is essential but also it is really important to have a foot that angles back enough. As I say... 4:14 is the knife you are looking for!

@@ronniebfemale2881 hi - great question! That is a piece of glass with grey primer sprayed on the underside... it is the bottom piece of an old glass tv stand - handy rubber feet to keep the primed surface from getting scratched. thanks for watching!

@@DafyddTimothy Wow, what a great recycling use for the art projects…love the video’s!

@@Briannafrancis-e9g it's transparent oxide brown - an amazingly useful colour for loads of things, but this is it's power play!

not yellow so much... you need a deep red - try a little burnt sienna

Sorry to say that it looks like it is no longer available :( I cant find it anywhere now

That is a great question! I'll let you in to a secret... all skin tones are based on brown. The trans oxide brown can easily be modified with a little red and white for lighter complexions. Now, for a one tube equivalent, there are a few companies that make a base "Flesh tint" that operates in the same way as you see here. Thanks for watching!

I don't mean to sound critical, but it's right there in the video. See what happens when Dafydd mixes white into the browns? 😅

If only I had this type of brown

ooooh - so close... only 3 days out, but I'm an Aries

The logic there is that there is a risk that the paint separates out, and you end up with oil at the top, and overly thick paint... it takes years, and you should always condition the paint before you use it anyway - mixing in oil if required... bit of a non issue to my mind, but some folks do hang their tubes upside down for that reason

The ebay link still works though - you will be able to contact them through that.. definitely worth reaching out to them if you have any questions! Thanks for watching!

You are very welcome - and thank you for watching!

Really glad it was helpful - and thank you for watching!

Hi Robert! That is Michael Harding paint - surprisingly affordable hand made artist quality oils. Thanks for watching!

@@DafyddTimothy Thankyou!!! Great stuff totally subscribed!!!

Cheers - and thank you for watching!

Thankyou - and thankyou for watching!

My pleasure - thank you for watching!

You are very welcome! Thank you for watching :)

Yes! I've thought that many times... oil is delight to work, but I too find acrylics harder to mix - partly because they dry out too quickly, but mostly because the different paints can have wildly different viscosities so just don't mix nicely... My advice to get around this is use a paper plate as a palette rather than a waxed paper palette (they are too slippery), and where you have different consistencies, squish the thicker acrylic into a pool of the thinner rather than trying to mix straight away using a really wide palette knife BUT If your lighter colour is thicker, try to thin it down with some medium and mix the dark colour into the thinned light colour instead (else you can end up mixing way too much). Hope that helps, and thanks for watching!

I love this comment - and yeah... this one makes life soooo much easier! 😊 Thank you for watching!

Hi! The paint is "Magenta" by Michael Harding. I added a couple of drops of Safflower oil, but linseed oil works just as well! Thanks for watching!

@@DafyddTimothy thank you so much for the information

That's a great question... for long term storage yes... for a while I had them hung upside down with bulldog clips for exactly that reason; these are the ones I use on the regular, so less chance of separation... also, I got frustrated with the labels being upside down!! Thanks for watching!

Hi! Great question, but no. Burnt sienna is a great colour, and is basically the same pigment, but the transparency is the key

@@DafyddTimothy okay! Can you please suggest an alternative to transparent oxide brown? (There’s availability issues where I live)

@@mythribg3349 Try mixing a little burnt sienna into the burnt umber to warm it up a bit... that should give you a close starting colour - although not transparent. I can't think of a one tube alternative to the transparent oxide brown, but mixing will get your base colour close to where you need it to be! Thanks for watching!

@@DafyddTimothy Thank you so much!

Hi Edwina - great question! I've painted sand many times, but usually in a beach scene rather than dunes... I will add it to my practice list though - painting any sand is not as tricky as it looks - less is more... sand is definitely a subject where you benefit from the illusion of detail rather than slavishly copying reality! Thanks for watching!

Hard to know without seeing the scene, but I'd recommend you start with mixing in some burnt umber to the standard mix; Burnt Umber tends to cool off colours, and is often used in shadows... give that a go!

There are hundreds of mixes for skin tones, but in truth, they are ALL based on a kind of orangey brown... These are just two out of the tube options for darker skin tones... for another super easy way to achieve some very convincing skin tones, try this: ua-cam.com/users/shortsbgOCfTyRGYs

Hi! There is a link in the description; it came from a company called wargame models

Hi 😊 For an intense deep blue similar to navy blue, try prussian blue. For the sky, I use Ultramarine for the zenith (the very top), cobalt blue in the middle where the fluffy clouds are, and cerulean blue right down at the horizon

Hi Sindy - that's a great question! I mean that we are calming the colour down by using the complementary colour to grey it out; as we mix opposite colours they become duller... more mellow - we can use that effect to make overly vibrant tube colours more realistic for use in a painting

Hey Grace! Sure - these are both Michael Harding paints - artist quality, but worth every penny! The colours are Burnt Umber (no.126), and Transparent Oxide Brown (no.224). Thanks for watching! 😊

@@DafyddTimothy thank you so much! I will look into this :)

@@DafyddTimothy I’m going to look into these too, the colors are gorgeous! 🎨
