    I think your pinting with oil pints is some of the best pinting I have ever seen pinted

    Another great video. I've used oils before and they are phenomenal for blending. I still have a lot of experimenting to do. So keep the oil videos coming. Thanks again

    Have you tried any of the Williamsburg oil paints. I’d recommend the Williamsburg Egyptian Violet.

    Great video! I love using oils for highlights too! Did you wait for the oils layer to dry before adding the oil sludge wash at 5:10?

      I think I just assumed the previous layers were dry. But did not check. 😬😅

    If I may ask, how are you mixing acrilic and oil? I always heard oil cracks if used with acrilic

    Question; how many coats of varnish and how long to let them dry before applying the oil washes? I'm always concerned I'm doing it wrong somehow!

    Oils.... , mistake free painting ,it all melts away, blending is so much fun ,so many options ,oil washes are really good ,etc so much more stuff with oils.
    Im afraid Im addicted to oils, and its hard to go back to acrylics.

      @@DonSuratos interesting. One more question will the paints and cleaner damage the brushes at all or wear them out faster? I think that is my biggest hesitation, that I would need to get a separate set of brushes just for oils.

      @@kumarawr740 oils are waaay easier on brushes than acrylics, oils can take days to dry, if you use fast mediums they can take hours but that's the fastest while acrylics will dry into brushes in minutes and are much more abrasive when they do, it's very unusual to use natural brushes especially expensive sables for acrylic painting because of this but people do it anyway for minis because the detail that a good pointed sable gives and the softness that a goat hair mop gives are so useful

    • @dskraus
      @dskraus Рік тому +1

      @@kumarawr740 I generally recommend keeping your chemicals separate from each other where possible. So - use brushes you only use for oils and brushes you only use for acrylics. Keeps things from cross contaminating and helps with predictability and lowers risk of getting some mineral spirits/thinner mixed up with your water and acrylics.

    I enjoy painting with oils. I think underpainting with acrylics and finish with oils is the better method. Like doing the zenithal and glazing with an airbrush first then finish off with metallics and oils. Some people enjoy doing the entire mini with oils but I dont like the pre-glaze step for staining because some colors are more staining than others and next thing I know I have a prussian blue where my skin tone should be and I will spend way to much time trying to remove the blue paint rather than focusing on the painting process. I have been experimenting with oils with gundam figures recently. I left some gundam parts in Gamsol for about a month and they still havnt changed. Someone said that mineral spirits is bad for gundam plastic but not the odorless mineral spirits apparently but the wash for panel lining over a painted kit with no varnish is super easy.

    • @DonSuratos
      @DonSuratos  Рік тому +2

      You know why I think Gamsol is not harmful to plastics… the Gamsol bottle is plastic. Unlike usual paint thinners which need glass bottles. I do believe acrylic underpainting then oils is such an efficient method. 😊🎨🎨🎨

      You don't have to stain your mini beforehand. That is just one procedure to paint with oil paints. Others exist and those don't rely on people hunting down a collection of specific tubes of paint from different brands for that desired "tinting power".
