Very nice, detailed and precise explanation. Faces are undoubtedly the most difficult parts to paint in a mini. Your video does an excellent job explaining it using acrylic colors (whom are the colors I prefer!). Thank you!
Erm... To all the listeners - I'm that Chris 😂 and yes, I'm perfectly aware that's a mental block. I promise I'll attend Tommy's workshop! Until then, your video allowed me to find the guts to start 😉 very well done as usual!
I like it knowledge is power,, i was assuming my paint was to thin and was adding more,, now i know, Im loving the cat lol,,,,Thanks for the tips my friend.
Probably one of the best tutorials on this topic I've seen. You explain all the steps very well, and the paint-thinner ratios for each step is very clear, which I think it's essential. Make sure I'll try your tricks!
@@dioramadevil of course you are! Many people do tutorials, and they show amazing skills, but sometimes they take some things for granted, so they forget to explain the basics... That's why I love your tutorials, you never forget the basics!
Hello ! First of all i would like to thanks you for all those vidéos ! It us such a source of inspiration tobme and it make me progress a lot ! Thanks ! I have a question : you put 3 base color layer to start...what Time IS necessary to wait between those base layers ?
Hi... First of all thank you, big time. Second, you should wait for the layer to dry. If you are doind 3 or 4 heads at once, the first will be surely dry when you finish the last one. If you are doing just one, take a hair dryer and give it a blow. We are talking minutes anyway. IF you really like my "menthorship" I would invite you to my Patreon page. The guys that joined said that thei are getting a 5 star treatment... :D
@@dioramadevil i will joint for sure, your Channel IS one of m'y favorite for modeling techniques...i was very scared to start with figure 😅 your vidéo give me the envy to start! By the way, you use Vallejo paint, and you're not the only one ...i guess i'll get some, but for now i practice faces with mig... What do you think of those paints ?
@@thierrychango7268 we are waiting for you on Patreon. At least another user is starting your exact jurnej... 😀 With the help from me and the other pstrons... Good luck.
Hey there. The "bamboo stick" is actualy a toothpick. Pick the round ones. Drill a 0.6 mm hole in the neck (few mm will do the job), then cut of the verry tip of the toothpick in order to meet the hole in the neck (usualy the tip is to small) and them push it in. Only friction. But you have to "nail" the amount of toothpick to cut off exactly. After some practice you will have no problems at all.
@@dioramadevil and one more question, that is not clear form the video - what did you do with this silicone brush? Did you just removed extra paint from the figure's face ? Regards
Bravo! Sempre molto interessante ed ottimo questo tutorial! Per le riprese come lavori? Sto pensando di migliorare la mia postazione di lavoro/ripresa e vorrei prendere un cavalletto da tavolo
Ofcourse you can. But.... The better the face is sculpted than easyer is to paint it. And you need good faces if you want to learn, trust me (me too). Go for Dragom, Miniart, modern Tamiya. Usualy those resin heads are so much better and easyer to paint.
Hmmm. Roughly yes. But if you want a good result, you should roughly dubble the ammount of shades and passes... It is bigger so evrything will be visible...
2 mins into the video and I'm certain this guy really WANTED me to learn from the bottom of his heart.
🥰

When you think thats thin enough, thin it even more... 😂
I have several figures in my stash and really afraid to paint them. I'll try your tutorial... thank you for sharing your talent!!
Check the last one... Its better... 🥰

@@thierrychango7268 check out my last video about faces. The brand is not so important. The tones are. My last faces were done with Ammo Mig too.
@@dioramadevil i do ! I have a M.. set for flesh, so i'll use it for training ! Thanks again and now let's paint ! 🤓

Very helpfull thank you !
It is a pleasure... :D
Hi may i ask what is PDR thinner that in this video you used ? Thank you so much
It is not thinner. It is paint drying rettarder. A kind of gel liquid.
Heads on spears, cheers Graham
😁❤️
How do you attach the heads to the bamboo stick? Thank you

Love the cat :-)
🤣🤣🤣
A Bigganer modular or an expart that can paint Figeuts perfectly can do it with any model.
Sorry, I didnt understand...
What is the silicone brush you're use to dry highlight layers?
Thanks in advance.
Those are silicone sculpting brushes. 💪😁
Many thanks. Aready found and had ordered them.
@@dioramadevil and one more question, that is not clear form the video - what did you do with this silicone brush? Did you just removed extra paint from the figure's face ?
Regards
Very nice guide! Didn't you paint the eyes?
Not that time... :D Thankyou...
Bravo! Sempre molto interessante ed ottimo questo tutorial! Per le riprese come lavori? Sto pensando di migliorare la mia postazione di lavoro/ripresa e vorrei prendere un cavalletto da tavolo
Grazie caro... Dammi qualche altro contatto, tipo fb o instagram, cosi parliamo con calma. Ti dico tutto volentieri, ma non aspettarti tanto 😀
I would like to ask can I use plastic figurine heads to learn how to paint flesh tones?
Ofcourse you can. But.... The better the face is sculpted than easyer is to paint it. And you need good faces if you want to learn, trust me (me too). Go for Dragom, Miniart, modern Tamiya. Usualy those resin heads are so much better and easyer to paint.
I love the cat👌😂
It is for sale... 🤟😂
@@dioramadevil oh, I can't afford 🙈😂😂
@@biberhunter_scale_models dont worry, I get it. High quality contemporanean art is not for evry pocket... 👌😀
@@dioramadevil 😂😂👍
I love your cat
Me too... 😂👌
would these same techniques work with 1/16 scale figures?
Hmmm. Roughly yes. But if you want a good result, you should roughly dubble the ammount of shades and passes... It is bigger so evrything will be visible...
😀 I taught I saw a Puddy Tat! 😀
What is a Puddy Tat? :D
what is the drying time between the coats?
Few minutes. If you are painting 2 faces at once, while you are finishing step 1 on the 2nd face the 1st is already ready.
Good tutorial! However... The cat steals the show. 🐱
Tnx... The cat is for sale... 😂
subscribed for the cat tutorial
I knew, thar it has potential... 🤟🤣
こんにちは､動画の配信ありがとうございます､素晴らしいデス､私は､フィギュアの塗装が苦手で､とても参考になりました。
Uuuu... I will need some translation... 😂❤️
Hello,thank you for sharing the video.
Great Dess, I was painting a figure
and it was very helpful.
WHAT FIGURES are these?
Those are miniart, and some unknown resin heads...
Meeeooow!
😂
After you use the power tool to mix, give it a shake with your hand for good measure 💁🏻♂️😂
Hihihi, hohoho, but I really do this sometimes... 🤣🤣🤣
@@dioramadevil it’s just fun to do let’s be honest
