Dude, solid work, as always! One of these days I'm going to try oils. :)
Thanks man... you should!
Fantastic. Very clear and well photographed. I'm going to have my first go at oil painting a figure after seeing this demonstration. Thanks for taking the time to produce these and share them with the community. Dan
Thanks, Dan... my pleasure. I'm so glad to hear that you're going to have a go with oils. Oil painting techniques are like records. Everyone said they're obsolete and then 20 years later everyones looking for a record player. Good luck with your journey. Cheers!

Excellent work once again...
Never thought to work with thinned oils...I will try it out 👍
Thanks
👍
@@PerisModels Yes it makes a huge difference to smooth transitions and smooth end results. Cheers!
Excellent!
Glad you liked it!
Really nice work again. Thank you for taking the time and trouble doing this. I must say your videos are the best on oil painting . Very clear and the camera work is very professional. Thank you again.👍
Thank you very much! I try. 😏
Magnificent! Truly magnificent! I’m a pretty good miniature painter however I’m stunned by your skills!
Thank you so much 😀
Nice. Always useful...
Thanks for your support John.Cheers!
very informative as always👏 Thanks Scott! 🤜🍻
Thanks, man... happy to help!
Such fine work, superb detail, and excellent camera work! 👍 This one will be going in the saved folder! P.S. Living dangerously, thinning down those metallics so heavily but all's well that ends well 😉
Thank you very much! Actually, like I said in the video, AK metallics are some of the best I've tried so far and thinning them didn't seem to affect them... or maybe I just got lucky! Hehe.
Excellent! Thanks. Could you you explain he use of cobalt blue? To add a green tint (when mixed with all of the yellow hues?) Or is there some other artistic logic?
Sure, but which part of the video are you referring to. If you could give me a time stamp then I can go look at what I was doing. I can remember that far back.
@@SmallSoldier In several places 3:32, 4:42 and 9:00 you use it in laying in shadows, as the darkening color. I would have expected a brown or perhaps even dark green, Thanks
@@rrl4245 I’ll take a look and get back to you. Thanks
@@rrl4245 So, the reason I use the cobalt blue is because it’s a complementary colour to Khaki which is in the yellow orange area on a colour wheel. So the colour opposite of the colour your using in this case blue is complimentary to yellow. If you watch again I actually mixed cobalt blue, burnt umber and cadmium red to create the shadow colour. So long story short always try and use a complimentary colour in your shadows as this makes them look more natural and pleasing to the eye. Hope that clears things up… let me know. Thanks 😊
@@SmallSoldier Great info, Thanks - I remember 'color wheel' from old art classes - a LONG time ago. Never applied that knowledge to modeling or figure painting. I should...
Hello, something different what colours oils to mix for German field grey? like your bust least l know the colour for the Khaki, how about doing a 120mm german figure.
That's definitely something I have planned Paul. For Field grey add Prussian green, White, Yellow Ochre and some Raw umber. You'll need to play with the ratios until you get what you're looking for.
fantastic video thank you for sharing. The only part that confused me was when you mentioned the highlight colour as white and ochre mixed with the previous Khaki colour.The only previous colour was the filter and shadow colours, is that what you meant? It seems unlikely. can you also let me know the colour that you base coated with please? I guess that was an acrylic. This is really world class stuff, please keep making videos.
Thanks, Glad it was helpful! The initial base colour is acrylics. It was a mix of roughly Tamiya Flat earth 50%, Buff 40%, White 10% and a touch of Sea Blue. Then I do a lightened version airbrushed from above with extra Buff/White mixed in then Sea Blue highly thinned and airbrushed from below. There was no Khaki oil base colour used for the base coat on this model. I used that dark wash then added more Burnt Umber and Cobalt blue to make it a little less transparent and used that for the darker shadows. I don't have exact ratios as I mix paint differently for each project and it changes every time. Hope that makes a little more sense.
Wonderful work. Quick question. What did you use as the base color before the oil filter?
Thank you, Vic! It was a mix of roughly Tamiya Flat earth 50%, Buff 40%, White 10%, and a touch of Sea Blue. Then I do a lightened version airbrushed from above with extra Buff/White mixed in then Sea Blue highly thinned and airbrushed from below. There was no Khaki oil base colour used for the base coat on this model. I used that dark wash then added more Burnt Umber and Cobalt blue to make it a little less transparent and used that for the darker shadows.

@@SmallSoldier Thank you for the break down and explanation. Happy New Year!
@@vicsminiatures7949 Your most welcome.
Great job. Was the pre shade you done off camera done in acrylics or was it done in oils? I was just wondering if you first pre shaded it with acrylics. Then used oils from then on.
Thanks! Yes, off-camera and in acrylics. I have a couple videos where I show exactly how I go about it. I always pre-shade in acrylics then oils over top.
Scott.... I always appreciate that you do these videos. I’m still learning and at the early stages of my miniature painting adventure. Been armor modeling for 30 years, but wanted to venture out some. Did you film the face painting for this too? Again, very appreciative and thanks for sharing your time and knowledge!
Thanks so much for your kind words Johan! I hope you get as much out of figure painting as you do from armour modelling. It's a totally different mind set but so much fun when you start to catch on. Keep at it and you'll reap the rewards. No, sorry I didn't film the face painting on this one. I was on a deadline to complete it for the box art and am surprised I even got the uniform part filmed. Don't worry they're will be lots coming down the road. Cheers!
This is a real weekend treat!
btw, any advise on painting white shirts with regards to highlights and shadows using oils?
Awesome, glad you enjoyed it. With white use Indigo for the shadows and leave the white as your brightest highlight. Prime or paint the article of clothing in white and then all you need to do is create the shadows. Build them up slowly and in very thin layers. use a little Burnt Umber in the deepest creases. Does that help?
@@SmallSoldier great! will try this soon!
What oil mix would you suggest for khaki? Thanks!
Burnt Umber 50% Naples Yellow20%, white 30% then mix various ratios until it looks right.
Sensational work.
How’s your Patreon coming along
Nothing yet. I'm waiting until I reach 10,000 subs then I'll look at it. Thanks for asking.
how do I subscribe
Hey Peter, it's super easy.. While you're watching the video in the lower right-hand corner you'll see a subscribe icon. Hover over that and click on it. It will say subscribe. Click on that then click the bell icon to be notified every time I upload a new video. Or you can go directly to my RUclips page and click subscribe there as well. Hope that makes it easier for you. Cheers! ruclips.net/user/SmallSoldier
gotya. I’ve already subscribed. Thought it was a sub for your Patreon. Hope you get the numbers. Love your work
Fantastic, Peter! Yes I hope I get there I'd like to offer extra content in a Patreon type of setup. Cheers!
The khaki base - was it Tamiya khaki?
In your experience, does the alcohol based medium of Tamiya have any effect on the oils ?
Yes, it was. I mix Tamiya with MLT... mister lacquer thinner 400 which replaces the alcohol as a base... so no effect is noticed.
And what was the base color used for the leather?
I absolutely love this channel. Thanks for the detailed replies!
@@landonpupka7162 Thanks, Landon! I'm glad you're enjoying my videos. Please tell another 100,000 people if you could... hehe. The base for the leather belt is a mix of burnt umber with maybe 10% yellow ocher mixed in. I keep it to a very thin glaze and build the shades up slowly. You have much better control of the outcome if you do it this way. I'm always happy to help and explain in as much detail as I can. Cheers!
