I appreciate your comment! I have a lot of exciting plans for the upcoming tutorials, where I'll be exploring various techniques for painting miniatures with oil paints. Is there anything particular you'd like me to include in this topic?
Actually, no. That's the beauty of it. You can spray a layer of varnish, let it dry, and then continue painting without thinking of smearing or blending the first layer. Although I can't say that all of the varnish will react to the oil paint in the same way. So you should try with a scrap piece first to see that yours do what you want.
@@GhosthatArts What kind of Varnish do you use? does it dry fast and does it still allow the undried oil paint underneath vaporize over time? It sounds very risky to varnish undried oil paints. Your painting looks awesome! Have you tried this techniques on 35mm scale figures?
@@GhosthatArts is this any Temporary/Retouch Varnish you refer to? Very interesting. I have one spray W&N Varnish that can be removed with White Spirit so it should not be that one, right?
finding any miniature oil painters is difficult keep it up :)

@@GhosthatArts non metalic metalics honsetly trying to do some hold metalics for miniatures in oil and might be beneficial to see
@Urabrask10 That's a great suggestion! I will make sure to cover that in an upcoming tutorial.
Thnx for sharing. I made this step with pastels it’s adding texture to the skin. But now want to try oils)
The oils are also leaving a texture if you do it in multiple layers, but that's also the beauty of it. It looks way more realistic that way.
Great job. Bust looks like Jenny Ortega
Thanks! It's my first video, so it can only be better. Hope you got some good information from the video.
When you talk about varnish, do you wait for your paint to be dry then varnish?

@@GhosthatArts after a few days of trying, I think I finally had the ah ha moment today right before work, can't wait to get back at it.
@MaddnessCreations Awsome! Please let me know if you have any other questions or if I didn't explain something good enough.
