15:55 adding any kind of medium or varnish will strengthen the ink (that has a relative weak medium). Adding it in will not add any step (except for mixing it beforehand), but varnish over the ink, does protect from reactivation more. The medium/varnish (either mixed in or sprayed on top) can also change the finish which you may want. For example more glossy to decrease surface tension or the other way around. A caveat is that mixing in a medium will decrease the transparency of the ink (basically making it a regular acrylic paint), which could be beneficial or not.

Hi, Scott, if you wanna paint minis with oils but waiting for long not your thing, some liquin or megilp, or malbutter are your friends, they speed up drying oils, so even long drying pigments cure completely in a matter of several hours, so you can have oils dry overnight for sure!

It is interesting for me, as someone who was "educated" on oils, by reading classic books by the likes of the great Shep Paine, to see how you kind of "discover" this medium for painting, rather than only for weathering or for effects. I sure hope to see you venture more into this medium. I think it will be very interesting. Keep up the great work, Benny (Israel)

@danthonyrobinson 10 ай бұрын
It's not necessarily that the *pigments* cure faster or slower, but that each pigment requires its own ratio of oil to properly suspend it (and some even require other additives to prevent weird clumping issues, such as ultramarine blue needing stearic acid). So yes, every color may have a slightly different curing time due to the overall volume of oil in it. For minis work, it's pretty important to keep the paint layers pretty thin (not necessarily thinned with medium, just not thick layers). But yeah, whites and cadmiums will take a lot longer to dry than others.

My experience with Tamiya is for smoothness I thin it more than I would expect. They take to being thinned incredibly well, and usually I got 4:1 thinner to paint, possibly more. I do find it needs to be mixed well, so ball bearing in the jars, plus mixing really well outside the airbrush. Then for spraying I do light coats and decent pressure, using a couple of layers to feather the gradient. It dries quickly so that Isn't much of a problem. I expect you probably know all of this, but hope it might help!

16:10 From what I have seen Tamiya White speckles more than white ink. Maybe if you thin a lot, you can compensate for that. If you paint over the zenithal the speckling is not that big of a deal, but if you are painting white like you did here, I would go with white ink too and depending on the brand (and PSI), I would thin the white ink with 50%-66% thinner to make the result as smooth as possible.

I paint exclusively with oil and have tried many of the additives and techniques to speed up drying times that you see recommended here on the YT or the internet. None of them were too great. I began my own experimenting and have discovered that Grumbacher Matte Medium with Grumbacher Cobalt Drier (sorry, no affiliate links below) works best for me. One tiny drop from a pipette of the cobalt drier to two full fillings from a 2-inch eyedropper of the matte medium. This stuff is magic! Testing different pigments on my glass palette I have found that faster drying pigments (e.g. umbers) can be dry within hours while slower drying ones (e.g. cadmiums) take a day. I should also mention I live in a very humid part of Texas where a tiny amount of cadmium red, a slow drying pigment, can take over two weeks to dry. The other added benefit of this combo is that the matte medium gives the oil paints a real nice flow off the brush. The matte part, however, doesn't work that well. Not with transparent pigments at least, which come out really glossy. You will still want to varnish the model later. The big drawback is that odorless white spirits can't be used with the matte medium. Instead, turpentine must be used which may be show stopper for some people as it does have an odor. However, I don't use the turpentine to thin the paint and only to clean off my brush between switching pigments, so most of the time I keep the lid to my turpentine cup closed. Frankly, white spirits are too harsh on oil paints, particularly when using such little paint, and outside of using them for an oil wash on a piece of terrain, I've been happier without it. Best of luck on your linseed journey.

Not all pigments are fully lightfast. Too long in a uv curing station could theoretically fade some paint. In the OG days when oil painting was more common on minis painters would put their minis in a coffee can with an incandescent light above it. This helped dry the oils faster. Consequences of acrylic over oil that isn't dry will most commonly be cracking. Oil paint cures via oxidization rather than evaporation as well, so putting a coat of acrylics may cause the oils to never cure.

For Tamiya paints on the airbrush it's usually a good idea to add some retardant medium to the mix, since it's a solvent-based acrylic it dries even faster than water-based paints, it's so fast that the paint dries mid-air and hit the model as a solid particle. The retardant gives time for the paint to settle on itself, creating a homogenous film of paint instead of micro-dots, then you can "flush dry" by just blowing the air from the airbrush into the surface, before adding the next layers. This also helps with dry tip, and lets you spray with lower psi - which helps avoiding overshooting.

Marco Frisoni from NJM is a frequent user of oils in his workflow. He has produced good results by just going with a varnish directly over the "wet" oils and leaving them to cure under the varnish as he gets on with the rest of the paint job. As you said, YMMV. But if you are going to do more experiments with mixing oils and acrylics in your workflow, especially for speed paining , then he's worth checking out.

When airbrushing through a well used cheap airbrush with a bigger (0.4?) nozzle I found the Tamiya paint with a few drops of vallejo flow improver to work through the airbrush pretty well, much better than vallejo's paint with their flow improver and airbrush thinner. I did not have much clogging with the tamiya paints, whereas even the vallejo air paints tended to have issues. That said, I switched mostly to painting bigger models like vehicles and use the airbrush primarily for basecoating and varnishing. Also I'm certainly not that experienced with the airbrush, so take my experience with a grain of salt.

so i actually recently tried using heavy body acrylics and used them in a similar manner to how you did the oil paints on the armour and got a pretty similar result but i believe they dried in in about half an hour. important note this was over a high gloss surface on snowtroopers so im unsure if anyone else uses heavy body acrylics in that manner. i only used them because i thought they were oil paints at first and was going to make washes and then thought well i have them, might as well try something new.

I was really excited when you said that you were going to use full-fat oil paint on a mini, but then you only used it for highlights and shadows... You should try painting a full model with only oil paints. Mended Brush Studio has quite a few videos on doing it that way and his way of doing it is a bit different than some other KZfaqrs as he uses more color theory and has some different techniques that make it really easy and approachable. Would you be able to use dryer sheets as opposed to wet wipes for the marble effects? Also, using oil paint should get you out of that cancer-causing habit of licking your paintbrushes.

I've tried drier sheets and they aren't stretchy, but I've known people to get them to work. You really have to clean them off those, because the particles will get all over the base if you don't!

The Inquisitor mix-up is understandable. Reva was a bad character and Trilla was awesome. These look amazing and I hope to see more Shatterpoint painting from you. Also, for other SW nerdiness to dive into, the audiobooks are incredible.

Maybe you could try mr color levelling thinner for the tamiya white. It's what i'm using and t works beautifully. Just don't forget ppe as it is made for laquers.
