#Warhammer #Oilpaints #Orruks
Marco, there is no way I can properly thank you enough for your tutorials. Please accept this small sum as my gratitude for all that you do for us. Be well!
Man! Man!!! MAN!!!!!! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!! Both for the kind words and the support
So, at this point, we could say that oils have become your.... bread and butter.
YEEEEAAAH!!!
"Perfection" 😂
I guess that GW (most people's introduction to mini painting these days) went with acrylic paints rather than oils, because of the less toxic and flammable nature of the medium made it better suited to GW's target audience. I remember, back in the elder times, John Blanche being held up as some sort of alchemist because he painted his minis with oils. Thank you for another fun and informative video.
I hear HELLO GUYS! I press like.
"Oil paints on miniatures can't be this good. They are hard to work with, will leave texture"
[tries oil paints]
"Holy sh*t, why I didn't use them earlier!"
Hahahaha yep, that's the kind of experience oils offer to miniature painters!
Immediately like
Me too
Totally did the same thing! Haha
Yup, first thing so I don't forget. Otherwise I will have niggling feeling eating my soul until realize and remedy.
It's SO much easier than acrylics!
Beautiful work.
This is literally for me at least, the only video of working with oils on miniature figures which has encouraged me to have ago.
Thank you for the inspiration!
Jas 😊👍
This is Marco the teacher to you absolutely need move your skills forward and your understanding outward.
It's one of his best qualities and here he matches it with beginner friendly choices for the model, keeps it simple, brush step by brush step, and visually obvious. He even uses a non human skintone.
This is a great addition to the NJM content library and the perfect starting point for folks to follow and surprise themselves with what they can easily do on a model from the start.
Man's a genius.
Marco mentioned James Wappel, once you've watched Marco's oils teaching vids and watched a session of James Wappel (very different approach to both painting and teaching), watch Dmitry Fesechko's tutorial too. He teaches more like Marco but without the bounding charm and killer choice in hats. He describes oils in a way that's particularly good for GW painters to transition to, with broadly familiar results. Once you've watched these three you're set to change your painting life
I'm a hobbyist traditional oil painter and I started painting mini's based on what you teach here Marco. If you do paint 'pictures' it would be cool to see your work. I just wanted to let you know that you inspired me to try the mini 'ground' instead of a canvas 'ground' :D and its become a huge amount of fun! Thank you.
I started using oil paints as washes and for weathering thanks to this channel. After this video I will expand the use of oil paint for sure. Amazing work, Marco, keep it up!
It's interesting how the younger painters like Marco are working with oils, because I remember a time when we didn't have good model acrylics, and oils were all we had. Thank you, Marco, for helping us unlock the potential of these finishes.
Wow this is amazing! Would love to see you do a Black Templar with oils 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Not gonna lie, I'd probably be super happy with the result at 8:47
Been about to tip my toes in oils for quite some time now. Not the least thanks to James Wappel, you couldn't have given much better shoutout there. James is easily my most followed miniature painter to date.
Love your work and you also make videos so much fun to watch while at it!
First Eurovision winners, now Football Euro champions - it's a good year for Italy so far. Congratulations from Germany!
NOTHING this man ever shows is actually "easy mode". While the technique shown seems simple, knowing what color to put where and how much of it for the right shading/highlighting etc. and how much of it to wipe away is the actual artistic part here. It takes a lot of experience to make it look like him.
Damn you, I have to try this now. This looks far closer to how i'd like to paint my models. Putting an order in for some paints and mineral spirits now.
Thank you very much for this video! I've been following Wappel for months now and I've switched to oil paints but it's good to see different experienced painters with different style. Hope more will follow! And no more toast please, I don't want to get hungry while painting! :)
The bread and butter metaphor works well in another way: Butter is much like an oil paint in that its primary medium is likewise oil. That's why there's the expression when using oil paints as 'smooth as butter'.
You’re passion for oil painting is inspiring! Nicely done Marco
I used artist's oils on my Citadel and Ral Patha minis back in the late 1970s and early 80s. It's nice to see the old techniques again, my kids converted me to acrylics in the 2010s but I never could get the build I wanted. Thanks for making an old fart feel relevant again.
"But if you are coming from years and years of acrylics and traditional wargaming techniques, well, your first experiments are going to be tough."
Understatement of the century and it cannot be emphasised enough. Decades of hardwired techniques will need to be rooted out and unlearned, but if you keep at it, you'll get there. After six weeks of daily practice I finally managed my first 'all oils' model without having to manually force any subroutines. And I *still* have problems if I use acrylic undertones first as in this video.
Keep at it. Paint every day. Rewatch these tutorials and really *observe* what's going on and what Marco is doing differently. It will pay off someday. And then you can look back at your first attempts with humor and satisfaction.
This video reminds me of when I moved to oils for my paintings. So much more versatile than acrylics, just need a little more care and understanding to get the most out of. Can't wait to try them on my minis!
Wow nice, just bought my first oil paint set. First test failed :D Need more practcie
😁 Perfect timing for a second try!
It's not failure, you have learnt from the experience.
It took me 4 tries to get the colours not to just pull into a mid tone. It's well worth figuring out though! I found it tricky to get the thickness of the paint right, that was the key for me. Good luck; once you get it working it's like magic.
@@adrianharkin5471 How did you stop it happening?
@@simbobcrafts4843 in the end I experimented with the oils thickness. My mid tone was better thinned down, diluted a bit to make it more like acrylic, but my highlight was better without dilution. If I think about what helped though, as important when blending with my dry brush, was trying to stipple along the edges of the two colours i'd painted on, and wanted to blend. I'd been trying to mix em like you'd wet blend acrylic and it didn't work. A sort of fuzzing, stippling motion between the two colours helped a lot, and cleaning the brush by wiping it off on a paper towel a lot is really important too. Later, I tried some of my thinned paint a bit thicker and it worked fine, but there's defo value in working out the consistency you want to be working at.
I hope that helps. I had to sit down 4 seperate times but once it clicked it's so worthwhile.
The video editing and writing on this channel is second only to the skill and knowledge of the world of painting. I'm always learning something new when I watch your videos. Thank you for continuing to make them!
My first time watching a video about Oil paints. Mind blown. I definitely want to try this now!
Perfect timing - I just did my first oil washes (trying real oil colors and water solubles - which both worked fine). Now I wanted to try to paint the minis with oil but was too afraid of.
Thank you, putting a cool model on the printer, and I am going to paint it completely with oils. can't wait for the next in the series
I come for the painting, and stay for the philosophy!!
superb video Marco, has me setting my sights on some oils!
Bless you Marco once again for your time and knowledge! And thank you as well for passing on James's information...
As a side (from an American) you obviously weren't born here and have a VERY thick accent, but I can easily understand you very clearly. Meanwhile....here in Louisiana, Im surrounded by people who were born and raised in the states and don't KNOW any language other than English and yet I can't understand 90% of it... Gibberish.
Hahahaha thanks man!!!
Thanks for this Marco. It's a great update and summary of last year's video.
You've pushed me to start using oils and it's awesome!
I watched it twice. Your videos are so dense with helpful information. 😅
Just tried this for the first time and loved it. It was amazing how easy it was to apply color theory with blends. And so much fun and stress free not worrying about acrylics drying
My dude, YOU are freaking wicked!! If it wasn't for you. I'd never know that I could use oils on miniatures. Love the end results.
I painted my best models of all time, thanks to oil paints. Also, my best piece of terrain :)
Thank you for the instruction and inspiration!!!
You are too good at inspiring us, Marco! Now I want to buy ALL of the all paints🤩
what is the best way of disposing of white spirits as well as the used palette sheets, q-tips, etc?
Thats funny, i pick up stuff from Søstrene Grene here in Norway to, from mixing brushes to cheap plastic pallets and other low quality painting stuff
It's the cheapest source of synthetic brushes here in Dublin XD and still, the quality is great!
When I watch you paint, I feel inspired to push my boundaries. I eagerly await your tutorials and especially when they’re specifically about oil painting only. Keep up the good work.
I can't get over the expression on that little dude's face every time I see it! You're making me want to not only tackle NMM, but also to begin messing about with oil paints as well. I've been painting with acrylics for around 14 years or so (give or take), so this ought to be interesting to see how quickly I can get my head around this whole thing. Good work, sir!
Marco is the reason for lots of my fails. Heavy body acrylics, check. Oil paint all over, you got it. Deeper understanding of color theory and sketch style, also yes.
Thanks Marco!!
Hi Marco, old school acrylic painter here who's just ordered a set of oils to have a try. I just wanted to thank you for your content to help with the processes. Really looking forward to trying something new.
Awesome man, thanks a million to you 😊 You'll have a lot of fun!!! And you'll probably appreciate today's new video 😉
@@MarcoFrisoniNJM Can't wait! Thanks in advance :)
Just want to say that I've been waiting for this video to really show me how to start painting aggressively with oils, I've been stuck on using them only as washes for so long! I am beyond excited to use every single thing you showed here!!
I painted some wh40k daemons in oils, well....a long time ago started to paint them in oils, never finished cause i dropped the hobby for awhile but yea oils are so smooth and blendy and perfect for warhammer. A tube of one color and a tube of white and black give you infinite blending and shading compared to trying to imitate it with fast drying acrylic. Bonus is its so easy to correct mistakes with oils cause they blend so well for hours after application. The only downside to oils is the 2-3 day dry period, just place them on a shelf and forget about them for a bit hah.
Well ! It's help me to learn what i had miss with my first try. I am soooo glad... i am able to do exactly what i want now. Thank you ! You are my lifesaver in this hobby !
Usually watching your videos I'm excited to paint, now I'm excited to paint and crave a buttered toast =/
Thanks Marco
Really love what you are doing here, i know how nice it can be to combine different branches of art and hobby and play all their tricks but your ability to put it all into perspective and explain it easily is really great.
Thanks Marco, your channel always gives me confidence in trying out new materials and having more faith in my instincts. Hobby hero!
It‘s the most wonderful tiiiiiime of the weeeeeeek 🎵🎶 I’ve been looking forward to this video since last thursday evening, can’t wait to try out my oil paints! (bought waaay to many different tones, but hey, that’s the standard for my hobby endeavours 😅) awesome video!
You have inspired me to start dabbling with oil paints and il really enjoy blending with then. Going back and forth between acrylics and oils is my favorite way of working at the moment. It does take a bit of self-control not to lick my paintbrush tho... 😬
Hahaha soooo true, I risk to fell in the trap of licking the brush almost every time!!!
Great to hear your shout-out to James Wappel. "Fair play" as the Irish would say.
I started the hobby just 2 years ago and I looked through this channel like an addiction. Today I get the first inquiries whether I work for a fee and it's a lot of fun. Thanks for the great teaching material and greetings from Bavaria. 😁
I used an oil wash yesterday for the first time and very pleasantly surprised. This video expends the scope and possibilities enormously. Perfect timing and thank you for your inspiring content!
Thank you, i have only been using oils on canvas so far, but after getting into 40k recently and then discovering your channel you kinda broke the mind's barrier of using them for miniatures!
😍😍😍 Awesome! With your experience on canvas the translation to miniatures will be super easy!
Fantastic tutorial Marco
This video really makes me want to dive into oil painting my miniatures. Great video as always!
Finally back on oils! Please keep on publishing videos on the subject, I really love this medium, especially for slightly bigger models like big monsters or busts.
Absolutely love this, this is inspiring me to try out oils after years of using acrylics. I’ve been looking for something new, and also the fact I can’t use an airbrush so I lose a lot of opportunities for smoother blends and the like. Thank you for this video!!!
I've painted today first model using only oils and a few hours later you put this video. It must to be some kind of connection !
I started painting less than a year ago, i was amazed with oil paints, so I've been following the Wappel youtube channel, twicht, and even patreon for a while. Some of my best miniatures are a mix of oil and acrylic. Wappel is a master,
when you look at their twicht and see their quality time results you WOAHHHH. And in his blog he has some amazing minis, most of you can see in his instagram, youtube and twicht are one-day projects. But, I always had the impression that he forgot that some people are beginners. Your oil videos are more beginner friendly i think. Love to wappel, and love to you. Please dont forgot that some people are starting, and maybe paint 4 o 5 days in a month, but we want to learn.
Six minutes in and I already felt a need to press like three times ... UA-cam needs the ability to give multiple thumbs up! Great video! Great paint job! (Great model too!)
Another great video. I took my first dive into oils recently after watching a number of your space marine videos, and I could not believe how easy the process was, and the impact of the final result.
Awesome video as always :D I struggled using oil paints for anything more than washes but this vid gave me some great tips to try out! Id love to see you in an interview with Vince, more people need to know about your channel :)
You sir are a god amongst mortals.
😁😂😁 too much 😁😂😁
Amazing! Marco can you please do some videos where you're painting vehicles or large flat armor surfaces, like tanks, etc...
I am the "old way" miniature painter. Been painting for a couple of decades, and I'm one of those "100 glazes a toe". I just can't bare to see any transition paint, so it can take me a even months to paint a single miniature.
Never seen this kind of painting in my entire life, and it looks really nice to be honest. I see in other of your videos that you have a lot of interesting painting techniques, and even paints that I would never thought to be used on a miniature.
Gtz man, you have my respect and my sub.
Honestly this looks more like how I tried to paint with acrylic when I first got started and still catch myself doing. It just seems like the more natural way to paint. I dunno if it's watching all the Bob Ross I have or what. But I fight a lot of tendencies that look like what you do here in these vids when I paint acrylic. I'm going to try painting with oils now, I guess I got some more paint to buy.
Awesome as usual :D ! Thanks Marco
This video made me hop on the bandwagon and I bought a set of 10 Winton oil paints. I've been playing around with them all day, and while it is wildly different from what I'm used to I'm having a lot of fun with them! Looking forward to learning more and using oils for various works. Thanks for the amazing videos!
great video mate
Since watching this, I have bought myself a starter set of oil paints and some brushes. Thank you!! Now to try and hope they turn out looking ok 😅
Marco ho dipinto la mia prima miniatura (prima in assoluto!) Ad olio. Grazie ai tuoi consigli non è stato un disastro assoluto, e di questo te ne sarò sempre grato.
can't wait to give this a try! Your videos have changed the way I paint, and maybe more importantly the way I think about colour and medim
Every video I see, I want to try want You show us :D I just have to find a random miniature to try oil paints !
Thank you to share your opening approch in the hobby.
I want to see more of what we can do with oil and other medium.
I have been working with mostly oils for the last year and you have been a huge inspiration for me
I had never used oil paints for painting until discovering your channel a few weeks ago with the release of cursed city. Followed along with your guide for painting zombies and after almost finishing 40 of them I feel confident enough to move onto some other models such as the wolves and blood knights in the same range. Thank you so much for your videos!
I was aware of how to use oils as washes but this greatly improved my knowledge on how to highlight well with them. Thanks so much!!
I also love how a second layer or filter of transparent oils can make the colors even more interesting.
I know your comment was posted a year ago, but doesn't that second layer reactivate the first one?
Yes, you don't want to just add another layer on top while the first is still wet. You'll have to let the first oil layer dry over night, with the help of Malbutter or a similar drying accelerator. Then it's safe to paint another oil layer or do finishing touches with acrylics.
@@sevencoloredmage8726 thank you!
Grazie a te ho cambiato totalmente il mio modo di pitturare chiaramente in meglio grazie Marco
😁😍😁
Great video, as always! For those that are worried about drying time; I keep a tube of Malbutter (from Schmincke) handy, add a tiny bit to your paint and it will dry faster, typically dry next day (depending on the pigment obviously).
👍👍👍 also Liquin is very popular and easy to find!
Great! A friend of mine gifted me the remains of his oil paints (about 12 tubes of Old Holland, most of them pretty full) because he didn't have the time to paint anymore. So this video comes at a perfect time, since I've been aching to give those a spin!
An incredible video as always, amazing result and super clear!
Thank you !! I was struggling to get the right consistency and overall approach on oils for days !
This is absolutly satisfying. I'm painting with oils after i saw your "wonder woman" video and explored fast blending and mixing directly on the model. Thank you for encouraging to paint with oils.
Absolutely incredible, the techniques shown on theis channel are unrivalled. I'm going to go get more oil paints now...
Thanks Marco. Definitely going to try this!
Well, now I gotta buy more oils! I was already eyeing the Scale75 Artist range to "break" a bit from the normal stuff as I do love wet blending acrylics. This will be awesome for sure.
Thanks!
Hey Marco, a question for you.
As I said above I was eyeing the Artist range from Scale75 so I can practice and get better at my favorite method of painting which is with wet blending and the more "artsy" style (which I'm pretty bad at honestly, still kind of new to this hobby). I was going for that range for the more "oil like" blends and drying times, so, it would be a win-win situation to go for some Winsor oil tube set instead? Is the set you link in your description good to start? I already have thinners and everything because I am a scale modeler aswell. Thanks a lot and have a nice weekend!
@@daeds.paints I don't think video creators get notified of replies to other people's comments, so I don't think he saw your question
Fantastic video Marco. I have only tried it with one model in the past and I struggled with it but you have inspired me to go back and try again. Thank you so much for your videos
I have been watching your videos since the beginning, I bought everything I needed. Today this additional video will help me I think to paint my first figurine only with oil. Thanks .. ( i add here some other oil mini-painter for other beginner like me : James wappel : Stilarebel or Dmitry Fesechko / feel free to delete if you want) .
Dmitry's tutorial on oils is still my favourite tutorial on the entire subject. So concise, yet so detailed and complete.
Man, your videos are always a highlight of the week for me, always so informative, thought provoking and refreshing.
Also this one came at a perfect time for me. I'm trying out NMM seriously for the first time and that was me yesterday: "man, all this blending and layering is just taking so long...oh...right...oil paints...they're a thing...and I do have a set of them...sure thing boss...right away boss...I'll grab the white spirit now boss.😍
Again, i cant express enough gratitude to you Marco, thanks to you ive switched to oils, and ive never enjoyed hobby more
Thorough and well done, as always. Great descriptions of your thought process, and you have convinced me to pick oils back up for the first time in 20 years, thank you for the shove by making the process look so effortless.
When I can afford to support you on Patreon I will, until then you have my sincere thanks for your content. You make consistently exceptional and unique videos that are well edited and don’t waste my time, while providing theory in context - yours is the best painting channel I subscribe to, thank you for what you have taught me.
Thank you soooooooooooo much! For everything 😁😊😁
The difference between working with acrylics and oil is much like the difference between working with two-component putty and air-drying modelling clay - the former is much less forgiving, albeit it delivers "quicker" results, while the latter benefits immensely from multiple passes with wet tools once you have built a solid foundation.
Good job Marco. Especially the points on the “logistics” of the painting process are important for all those people who plan to paint large numbers of models up to a good standard.
Great video, as usual. And mind blowing, as usual.
You made me do it! bought some oils, still experimenting but so far I Absolutely love it
😍😍😍
Please do more oils ❤️
Thanks again Marco! Illuminating as always :)
I finished my first ork boy today with oil washes. He looks great.
NICE!!! 😁😊😁
Finally organised paypal stuff so I could join patreon. Always exciting stuff that you make and especially with the last few videos I would like to have more footage. Keep up the good work Marco!
Thank you soooo for your support much man 😊😉!
