PAINTING FIGURES' FACES - 10 TOP TIPS YOU NEED TO KNOW

Рет қаралды 45,122

Күн бұрын

It’s time to update one of more popular videos on face painting for scale models and figures or busts. This is a reworked and updated video on painting 1/35th scale figures which has been made for Derrel Eves 30-day Creator Challenge.
Our previous 2013 video on painting 1/35th scale figures with Vallejo Acrylics is here:
• PAINTING FIGURES' FACE...
This is a simple non-elitist step-by-step “Top 10 Tips” video guide to painting figures' faces using Vallejo's excellent Model Color range. It’s aimed at everyday figure painting and our background is predominantly armour modelling. Experimenting with painting busts has definitely changed the way we paint 1/35th scale figures. Here's how...
This beginner tutorial from www.scalewarmachines.com is aimed at novice modellers & AFV model makers looking to paint realistic faces for their figures. It is not a masterclass, rather a simple 10 tip technique for effective results. It should be accessible and simple to follow for beginners and intermediates alikes. If you want to watch a long-winded masterclass, check out one of the expert figure painter channels on You Tube instead.
We have tried to add alternative techniques for those of you who do not use airbrushes.
We hope you enjoy this and that it inspires you to try your hand at the tips.

Don't use one yet but that time is rapidly approaching. Suggest looking in the Expo catalogue or Micromark in the States for magnifier head rig set ups.

Hi. Does the Vallejo matt varnish go dead matt? And do you airbrush or brush it? And do you thin it? Have you tried the polyurethane matt varnish? What are your thoughts on that anyone? Thanks so much.

@scalewarmachines 3 жыл бұрын

It goes Matt - much more so than the paints. It also unifies everything. Is it dead Matt - not quite - it can have a cloudy chalky effect if used too thickly. Apply by airbrush thinned with Vallejo airbrush thinners.

What company or brand are the busts that were in the beginning. The Fury one and the Captain Winter's. I'd really like to look into getting those

@scalewarmachines 4 жыл бұрын

Generally Young Miniatures of Korea. Excellent Busts. Captain Winters however is a Nuts Planet release. Also of Korea, also excellent, though Young Miniatures has just released a Damian Lewis/ Captain Winters bust too.

The problem is how do I get my hands steady :| I'm shaking all over the place. I need to lock my entire body and hand AND hold my breath so that I don't do anything I hate. I get request to paint models but I rather not do it, sticking to painting props lol I wish I could find a way :\ Thnx +1

@pilotgeist8721 4 жыл бұрын

I lock my hands together, plant my elbows in my sides and hold breath. you have to plant brush hand onto hand that holds object. This steadys hands very well. good luck shaky!
