The short video about one of my methods to color (tint) ship models in the "sea-storms weathered" style :) #howto #shipmodel #smallboat #coloring #tinting
Well hello, for my part I tinted my ships with several varnishes but I am never satisfied with the result but for the next one it will be in the oil that I already use on my plastic models to make effects, a big thank you for these tutorial videos.👍
@@shipmodelideas Yes! My construction will begin in September until then I will keep you informed, I will have a small question; you think with the same procedure can be done with a color dye for example red so that we can see the fibers of a wood?
Well, in a painter's shop, you can find a diverse range of artistic oil paints. There are various shades of reds and greens, etc. available, but when it comes to creating an "oldish" wood effect, I primarily rely on tints of brown. The use of red color alone wouldn't be suitable for this purpose. However, if for some reason you wish to depict gaps between planks or fibers filled in with red, then yes, it can work. It's important to note that wood is not naturally white and may contribute its own color, especially if the paint coverage is not entirely opaque in certain areas. Therefore, eventually, your red will not appear the same red on the wood as it would, for example, on a white canvas.
I enjoy a lot thiI really liked the video. I will definitely try this technique. I just did the cover with pine stain and satin varnish. do you apply varnish after oil painting?
When working with models of that kind, I prefer wood to look natural. So in the case of Santa Maria, I will not use varnish. I will cover it with linseed oil.
Usually thinner for oil paints consists of turpentine and white spirit. It has a specific smell. But art stores now have a lot of unscented solvents. Just google "artistic oil paint thinner"
Hello. Great work and thank you for sharing your skills with us. Your videos are mesmerizing and a tremendous resource. What is the brand of paint you used in this video? Thanks again.
Hi! Thank you. Actually you may use any kind of artistic oil paint. Here the color matters more, than the brand. Just check what is available in your location. Here I used several different brands, like royaltalens, darwi, kreul, rosa. They all are artistic acrylic or oil paints. Rather often artistic acrylic paints are good for airbrushes if to dilute them correctly.
In this case, I did not use varnish. it is an art oil paint and a thinner for it mixed in a suitable proportion. Later I covered the model with linseed oil. If you turn on subtitles in the video - there is a little more details.
For tinting, I use artist's oil paint, heavily diluted with solvent for artist's oil paints. and to coat the wood after staining, I most often use linseed oil.

Can I ask what type of oil you use and the brand?
