SHOCKING Oil Paint Results on Tiny Minis
In this video I go through my workflow when painting small miniatures with oil paint. How I prepare them and what to look out for and what to focus on.
The mini is not painted exclusively in oils but the details at the end where painted in acrylics.
If you wanna look at the painting in real time footage , there is a video with about one hour material where i paint in real time on my Patreon.
Hope you like the process .
Enjoy !

    • @WitnessMyMinis
      @WitnessMyMinis Місяць тому

      @@-Ambos- thank you ! I’m really glad it helped ! It easier to start with oils of larger surface, it’s kinda hard in the beginning to learn just how little oil you need on small surfaces . I find that on small minis it works great to work with oils for the initial layers to make blends etc and then work with acrylics for the final crisp details.
