Eyes are not easy for sure. You need a brush with a good tip, paint that will flow reliably in one pass and line up the brush so you can paint the eye from the side, not face on. That is an easier stroke to make on such a small area. Then it's a simple little black dot for the pupil. Do all this before painting the rest of the face and you can easily correct errors. I hope that helps.
man, you have good eyes. I have such a hard time seeing the details over black to stay within the lines. Usually i'll have to paint in another base color before i can really see the borders well.
Most of us do :). A large free standing magnifying glass with an inbuilt light is what most of us use.......you are right, without them, it would be a poor show to paint that small and that detailed.
@@Matsokkkkk_Assassin-unity you wouldn't need more than one bottle of each colour. Unless you like to flood your pallet with paint. I work with the same bottle for years.
I hope you have with them. Napoleonics can look spectacular on the tabletop. Not sure How many more I will be painting though. Too many other things to do!
I use the Army Painter Insane Detail brush for the small areas including the face. For the rest I use any medium sized brush with a good point. Thanks for watching!

Excellent tutorial . Nice technique with letting the black in the curves . Greetings , Robert .
Thanks Robert. This technique is how I paint my 15mm minis and I'm trying to apply it to larger scales.
Master level painting right here!
Thanks! You are too kind. I will have a tutorial up soon for British Napoleonic Infantry. Thanks for watching!
How did you painted the eyes!? I tried painting it but i was struggling

@@PanzerSchule Thank you. I’ll take you’re helpful advice

I'm used to doing this in 15mm so these guys look like giants to me! That helps my eyes as a steady diet of 15mm does strain my old peepers.

Nice work sir.
Thank you Smooth Brush. I hope I can work more on my 28mm painting soon.
Great Job congratulations
Thanks for that and thanks for watching!
Wow amazing painting but what type of paint did you use
@@Matsokkkkk_Assassin-unity check the description, I've listed everything there. They're all Vallejo paints but any good range of paints will do.
super travail merci
Thanks! Thank you for watching.
I have a question for you how do you do to have the grass on the base
The base is covered with static grass and grass tufts. I apply that with PVA glue. Very easy way to get attractive bases.
And how much paint did you need for 250

@@PanzerSchuleokay thanks for the fast response
Thanks for this! I have a ton of napoleonic french in my future so this helps.

Impressive and helpful. What size and type of brushes did you use on the face? 👍
