    You can still buy lead-white, its not illegal, but it's expensive and comes with a lot of warning signs (see cremnitz white). Also to mix green it's best to use an already greenish blue and already greenish yellow, if you use an orangy yellow mixed with a purpely blue you'll end up with mud like this. Thirdly watch out while painting with vermilion (cadmium) it's almost as toxic as lead paint, don't throw a rag around your shoulder with fumes of terpentine mixed with cadmium paint if you don't want cancer and don't grind its powder on a plate without hand and breathing protection. And lastly, if you paint in thick oil paint it won't keep the exact shape you painted it in when it "dries" because the oil shrinks. I believe studies say Rembrandt added chalk and ground glass and sand and all sorts of weird shit to make his impasto effects. I know this is a basic how to video, but you've got to inform people correctly on this shit (especially as the rijksmuseum) because people can get serious health issues.

    I use both for my ww2 models for weathering the vehicles never used the egg though inwas looking for a pigment binder inuse enamel thinner with pigments for all different dust oil and streak n grime to rust effects! And using oils is a bog part of it but we have to squeeze abit of paint out on a bit of cardboard to soak up the linseed oil or it just doesn't stick to plastic or metals and again thinner with enamel thinner is perfect for streaking from bolts like oil n grime with burnt umber yellow ochre titanium white dotted about on a Sherman or a Russian t34 and pulled down streaking in the base coats of the Russian and olive drabs it really gives a beautiful worn weathered effect to vehicles! Some of the best artists are modelers these days replicated weathering effects isn't easy! Can't just slap it on and make it look natural and to the correct scale! Refinement is key! I don't think I'll try the egg its nothing to soak into on plastic so will rot and smell

    Is flaxseed oil interchangeable with linseed oil? Or is linseed processed differently for paint?

    • @TheAndreArtus
      @TheAndreArtus 4 года назад +10

      Technically they are the same thing, oil pressed from the flax seed (aka linseed). You have to be careful though. While many languages do not make the distinction in English "linseed" is used to describe the oil when prepared for paint or wood treatment purposes, this oil is likely solvent extracted and may contain toxic siccatives and is thus not suitable for consumption, whilst "flaxseed" is used to refer to an oil prepared for culinary use which may contain mucilage or added antioxidants (to prevent it from going rancid) that make it unsuitable for use as a paint medium.
      Artist grade linseed oil can be prepared from [unadulterated] flaxseed oil by washing out the mucilage. If all the steps are done using food safe methods and materials then the end result will remain food safe, but you **cannot** make that assumption for any oil if not processed by yourself or a trusted source. To stay safe don't use oil marked as "linseed" on your salad (or any culinary application).

    Lamp black
    Sienna ( the same pigment as 1000 years ago)
    Ochre ( same)
    RAW umber
    I didn’t see any good Cassel Earth, sorry. May be Mars Brown transparent can make the deal ( reddish brown vs greenish brown of raw umber)
    Madder -ok. Krapplack is ok
    Carmine or Scarlet
    Aureoline or brilliant yellow deep from Blockx
    Ultramarine
    Cyan or Thalene Blue
    PS ultramarine gives a muddy green. Use other blue.
    It is my personal experience.

    • @josquinelburg74
      @josquinelburg74 4 года назад +2

      Though I agree with many colors, Zinc white is very problematic. Yes, it is a nice subtle transparent white much like Lead white, but it also gets very brittle in time. And may peel off the canvas or at least cause cracking. I use titanium white mixed with marble dust in oil. Makes it more transparent and subtle in mixtures, though this is also not a great idea because marble dust in oil yellows considerably - not desirable for white paint. I guess there isn’t a good substitute for Lead white. Also on a chemical level, where Lead white creates an incredible paint film

    • @josquinelburg74
      @josquinelburg74 4 года назад +1

      Also, vermillion was used often, but there aren’t any good substitutes for it. Cadmium red is also poisonous, and is also much stronger than vermillion (which is a very kind color in mixtures)

      @TheAndreArtus 4 года назад +2

      Depends on what you mean.
      The yolk is a binding agent, it's not a solvent. Unless you intend to grind the pastels down for pigment (to mix that into the yolk to make your tempera) you are likely just going to end up with an eggy mess. The pastels already contain a binder, sometimes water soluble, that may (or may not) react deleteriously with the yolk.
      If you wish to use the yolk as a fixative you may end up smearing the pastels instead. The parts that don't smear will likely ultimately flake off.
      It's worth an experiment.
