[@shiragkataroyan1707]

Marco, there is no way I can properly thank you enough for your tutorials. Please accept this small sum as my gratitude for all that you do for us. Be well!

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Man! Man!!! MAN!!!!!! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!! Both for the kind words and the support

[@borna1231]

So, at this point, we could say that oils have become your.... bread and butter. YEEEEAAAH!!!

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

"Perfection" 😂

[@euansmith3699]

I guess that GW (most people's introduction to mini painting these days) went with acrylic paints rather than oils, because of the less toxic and flammable nature of the medium made it better suited to GW's target audience. I remember, back in the elder times, John Blanche being held up as some sort of alchemist because he painted his minis with oils. Thank you for another fun and informative video.

[@philgee486]

This is Marco the teacher to you absolutely need move your skills forward and your understanding outward. It's one of his best qualities and here he matches it with beginner friendly choices for the model, keeps it simple, brush step by brush step, and visually obvious. He even uses a non human skintone. This is a great addition to the NJM content library and the perfect starting point for folks to follow and surprise themselves with what they can easily do on a model from the start. Man's a genius.

[@philgee486]

Marco mentioned James Wappel, once you've watched Marco's oils teaching vids and watched a session of James Wappel (very different approach to both painting and teaching), watch Dmitry Fesechko's tutorial too. He teaches more like Marco but without the bounding charm and killer choice in hats. He describes oils in a way that's particularly good for GW painters to transition to, with broadly familiar results. Once you've watched these three you're set to change your painting life

[@waynerobinson4730]

I used artist's oils on my Citadel and Ral Patha minis back in the late 1970s and early 80s. It's nice to see the old techniques again, my kids converted me to acrylics in the 2010s but I never could get the build I wanted. Thanks for making an old fart feel relevant again.

[@Beatnik59]

It's interesting how the younger painters like Marco are working with oils, because I remember a time when we didn't have good model acrylics, and oils were all we had. Thank you, Marco, for helping us unlock the potential of these finishes.

[@reaver3302]

I'm a hobbyist traditional oil painter and I started painting mini's based on what you teach here Marco. If you do paint 'pictures' it would be cool to see your work. I just wanted to let you know that you inspired me to try the mini 'ground' instead of a canvas 'ground' :D and its become a huge amount of fun! Thank you.

[@jasongould405]

Beautiful work. This is literally for me at least, the only video of working with oils on miniature figures which has encouraged me to have ago. Thank you for the inspiration! Jas 😊👍

[@VMinoda]

I started using oil paints as washes and for weathering thanks to this channel. After this video I will expand the use of oil paint for sure. Amazing work, Marco, keep it up!

[@juliethibault9940]

Thank you very much for this video! I've been following Wappel for months now and I've switched to oil paints but it's good to see different experienced painters with different style. Hope more will follow! And no more toast please, I don't want to get hungry while painting! :)

[@culchiepaints6185]

My first time watching a video about Oil paints. Mind blown. I definitely want to try this now!

[@ProrokLebioda]

"Oil paints on miniatures can't be this good. They are hard to work with, will leave texture" [tries oil paints] "Holy sh*t, why I didn't use them earlier!"

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Hahahaha yep, that's the kind of experience oils offer to miniature painters!

[@jakessofa8187]

I come for the painting, and stay for the philosophy!! superb video Marco, has me setting my sights on some oils!

[@Invisigoth05]

Been about to tip my toes in oils for quite some time now. Not the least thanks to James Wappel, you couldn't have given much better shoutout there. James is easily my most followed miniature painter to date. Love your work and you also make videos so much fun to watch while at it!

[@marcolai9735]

You’re passion for oil painting is inspiring! Nicely done Marco

[@jamesm6851]

This video reminds me of when I moved to oils for my paintings. So much more versatile than acrylics, just need a little more care and understanding to get the most out of. Can't wait to try them on my minis!

[@Artmesa]

I painted my best models of all time, thanks to oil paints. Also, my best piece of terrain :) Thank you for the instruction and inspiration!!!

[@Knight-chaplainashriel]

My dude, YOU are freaking wicked!! If it wasn't for you. I'd never know that I could use oils on miniatures. Love the end results.

[@chance9979]

Marco is the reason for lots of my fails. Heavy body acrylics, check. Oil paint all over, you got it. Deeper understanding of color theory and sketch style, also yes. Thanks Marco!!

[@kayprins6779]

Thank you, putting a cool model on the printer, and I am going to paint it completely with oils. can't wait for the next in the series

[@archfrank]

Usually watching your videos I'm excited to paint, now I'm excited to paint and crave a buttered toast =/ Thanks Marco

[@oktoberbabyfee]

First Eurovision winners, now Football Euro champions - it's a good year for Italy so far. Congratulations from Germany!

[@DicePunk]

Thanks for this Marco. It's a great update and summary of last year's video. You've pushed me to start using oils and it's awesome!

[@thomasblennerhassett7223]

Just want to say that I've been waiting for this video to really show me how to start painting aggressively with oils, I've been stuck on using them only as washes for so long! I am beyond excited to use every single thing you showed here!!

[@julianspeed7322]

Thanks Marco, your channel always gives me confidence in trying out new materials and having more faith in my instincts. Hobby hero!

[@Slaypi]

I started the hobby just 2 years ago and I looked through this channel like an addiction. Today I get the first inquiries whether I work for a fee and it's a lot of fun. Thanks for the great teaching material and greetings from Bavaria. 😁

[@ThewickedVik]

You are too good at inspiring us, Marco! Now I want to buy ALL of the all paints🤩

[@dylancaygill8407]

Thanks Marco. Definitely going to try this!

[@cemeeks]

Just tried this for the first time and loved it. It was amazing how easy it was to apply color theory with blends. And so much fun and stress free not worrying about acrylics drying

[@facesnbases9853]

Hi Marco, old school acrylic painter here who's just ordered a set of oils to have a try. I just wanted to thank you for your content to help with the processes. Really looking forward to trying something new.

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Awesome man, thanks a million to you 😊 You'll have a lot of fun!!! And you'll probably appreciate today's new video 😉

[@facesnbases9853]

@@MarcoFrisoniNJM Can't wait! Thanks in advance :)

[@WaldoWally]

I watched it twice. Your videos are so dense with helpful information. 😅

[@Pierre-sz3gh]

Great video, as usual. And mind blowing, as usual.

[@austrelforgefeu5888]

Well ! It's help me to learn what i had miss with my first try. I am soooo glad... i am able to do exactly what i want now. Thank you ! You are my lifesaver in this hobby !

[@gaeldelomenie8003]

Finally back on oils! Please keep on publishing videos on the subject, I really love this medium, especially for slightly bigger models like big monsters or busts.

[@timwelch175]

Bless you Marco once again for your time and knowledge! And thank you as well for passing on James's information... As a side (from an American) you obviously weren't born here and have a VERY thick accent, but I can easily understand you very clearly. Meanwhile....here in Louisiana, Im surrounded by people who were born and raised in the states and don't KNOW any language other than English and yet I can't understand 90% of it... Gibberish.

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Hahahaha thanks man!!!

[@dennism.2976]

I used an oil wash yesterday for the first time and very pleasantly surprised. This video expends the scope and possibilities enormously. Perfect timing and thank you for your inspiring content!

[@FauxNorth]

The video editing and writing on this channel is second only to the skill and knowledge of the world of painting. I'm always learning something new when I watch your videos. Thank you for continuing to make them!

[@Stringbean219]

Your voice and cadence alone makes me so hype, its unreal lol. Keep up the good shit Marco!

[@Frostsnake69]

Immediately like

[@riccardonovello]

Me too

[@ChaplainHaladriel]

Totally did the same thing! Haha

[@jcillis]

Yup, first thing so I don't forget. Otherwise I will have niggling feeling eating my soul until realize and remedy.

[@Myhayv]

I hear HELLO GUYS! I press like.

[@NavarreOnline]

Another great video. I took my first dive into oils recently after watching a number of your space marine videos, and I could not believe how easy the process was, and the impact of the final result.

[@lowbrowminis]

I have been working with mostly oils for the last year and you have been a huge inspiration for me

[@berkutsierra7887]

Really love what you are doing here, i know how nice it can be to combine different branches of art and hobby and play all their tricks but your ability to put it all into perspective and explain it easily is really great.

[@sebastiang.5032]

Another awesome and helpful video!

[@earlwealleans2317]

When I watch you paint, I feel inspired to push my boundaries. I eagerly await your tutorials and especially when they’re specifically about oil painting only. Keep up the good work.

[@martintaylor570]

Thanks again Marco! Illuminating as always :)

[@JimmyColls]

Outstanding tutorial

[@christianbellandi7428]

Grazie a te ho cambiato totalmente il mio modo di pitturare chiaramente in meglio grazie Marco

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

😁😍😁

[@dahSweep]

This video made me hop on the bandwagon and I bought a set of 10 Winton oil paints. I've been playing around with them all day, and while it is wildly different from what I'm used to I'm having a lot of fun with them! Looking forward to learning more and using oils for various works. Thanks for the amazing videos!

[@Piggysl8er]

This video really makes me want to dive into oil painting my miniatures. Great video as always!

[@honzatomecek6415]

Just amazing!! Thankx!!

[@Krottotoa]

I started painting less than a year ago, i was amazed with oil paints, so I've been following the Wappel youtube channel, twicht, and even patreon for a while. Some of my best miniatures are a mix of oil and acrylic. Wappel is a master, when you look at their twicht and see their quality time results you WOAHHHH. And in his blog he has some amazing minis, most of you can see in his instagram, youtube and twicht are one-day projects. But, I always had the impression that he forgot that some people are beginners. Your oil videos are more beginner friendly i think. Love to wappel, and love to you. Please dont forgot that some people are starting, and maybe paint 4 o 5 days in a month, but we want to learn.

[@nazteeb]

Awesome as always! Gorgeous painting!

[@wonderwend1]

It's SO much easier than acrylics!

[@DobsonsLab]

can't wait to give this a try! Your videos have changed the way I paint, and maybe more importantly the way I think about colour and medim

[@seileen1234]

As always, amazing

[@jimyoyoma8956]

I was aware of how to use oils as washes but this greatly improved my knowledge on how to highlight well with them. Thanks so much!!

[@SatanasanataS]

Thank you, i have only been using oils on canvas so far, but after getting into 40k recently and then discovering your channel you kinda broke the mind's barrier of using them for miniatures!

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

😍😍😍 Awesome! With your experience on canvas the translation to miniatures will be super easy!

[@Artifexmaholifts]

Again, i cant express enough gratitude to you Marco, thanks to you ive switched to oils, and ive never enjoyed hobby more

[@mikkelkragh1336]

Great video, as always! For those that are worried about drying time; I keep a tube of Malbutter (from Schmincke) handy, add a tiny bit to your paint and it will dry faster, typically dry next day (depending on the pigment obviously).

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

👍👍👍 also Liquin is very popular and easy to find!

[@smnb6652]

Great! A friend of mine gifted me the remains of his oil paints (about 12 tubes of Old Holland, most of them pretty full) because he didn't have the time to paint anymore. So this video comes at a perfect time, since I've been aching to give those a spin! An incredible video as always, amazing result and super clear!

[@bubolatuile8725]

Wonderful! I waited up a such a long time for videos like yours! Thank you for your gorgeous work and advice!!

[@gamecat666]

Damn you, I have to try this now. This looks far closer to how i'd like to paint my models. Putting an order in for some paints and mineral spirits now.

[@jameswhitbread574]

I’ve needed a video like this for a while! Thanks dude!

[@MrPoppysoabm]

Fantastic video Marco. I have only tried it with one model in the past and I struggled with it but you have inspired me to go back and try again. Thank you so much for your videos

[@JackieChan1199]

Absolutely incredible, the techniques shown on theis channel are unrivalled. I'm going to go get more oil paints now...

[@randomdudette1726]

It‘s the most wonderful tiiiiiime of the weeeeeeek 🎵🎶 I’ve been looking forward to this video since last thursday evening, can’t wait to try out my oil paints! (bought waaay to many different tones, but hey, that’s the standard for my hobby endeavours 😅) awesome video!

[@christophasmus3865]

This is absolutly satisfying. I'm painting with oils after i saw your "wonder woman" video and explored fast blending and mixing directly on the model. Thank you for encouraging to paint with oils.

[@sliven21]

Since watching this, I have bought myself a starter set of oil paints and some brushes. Thank you!! Now to try and hope they turn out looking ok 😅

[@mastashadow5031]

Another awesome video.

[@ViktorBrech]

Great to hear your shout-out to James Wappel. "Fair play" as the Irish would say.

[@ivanbianconi3879]

Simply insane

[@MaskedRiderChris]

I can't get over the expression on that little dude's face every time I see it! You're making me want to not only tackle NMM, but also to begin messing about with oil paints as well. I've been painting with acrylics for around 14 years or so (give or take), so this ought to be interesting to see how quickly I can get my head around this whole thing. Good work, sir!

[@Raptorschapter]

Marco ho dipinto la mia prima miniatura (prima in assoluto!) Ad olio. Grazie ai tuoi consigli non è stato un disastro assoluto, e di questo te ne sarò sempre grato.

[@ianlacey6588]

As always, thank you for so much information. I hope to give it a try in the near future.

[@xcomeruinx]

Brilliant breakdown, covers everything from a very humble perspective.

[@ultimattwhat]

Thorough and well done, as always. Great descriptions of your thought process, and you have convinced me to pick oils back up for the first time in 20 years, thank you for the shove by making the process look so effortless. When I can afford to support you on Patreon I will, until then you have my sincere thanks for your content. You make consistently exceptional and unique videos that are well edited and don’t waste my time, while providing theory in context - yours is the best painting channel I subscribe to, thank you for what you have taught me.

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Thank you soooooooooooo much! For everything 😁😊😁

[@Ovalmodels]

Wow this is amazing! Would love to see you do a Black Templar with oils 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@timago4443]

love you Marco, your energy is always a joy to watch ❤️ All while being the most educational mini painting channel I know! keep it up!

[@lotsofspoons]

Six minutes in and I already felt a need to press like three times ... KZbin needs the ability to give multiple thumbs up! Great video! Great paint job! (Great model too!)

[@tacaheca]

Perfect timing - I just did my first oil washes (trying real oil colors and water solubles - which both worked fine). Now I wanted to try to paint the minis with oil but was too afraid of.

[@cyberbum9688]

Absolutely love this, this is inspiring me to try out oils after years of using acrylics. I’ve been looking for something new, and also the fact I can’t use an airbrush so I lose a lot of opportunities for smoother blends and the like. Thank you for this video!!!

[@draadhaai]

Finally organised paypal stuff so I could join patreon. Always exciting stuff that you make and especially with the last few videos I would like to have more footage. Keep up the good work Marco!

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

Thank you soooo for your support much man 😊😉!

[@UguuYianKutKu]

Thank you so much for this video marco, this was the push i needed to really use the oils in my collection.

[@juliosaramago]

Awesome as usual :D ! Thanks Marco

[@mathieu.robert]

Man, your videos are always a highlight of the week for me, always so informative, thought provoking and refreshing. Also this one came at a perfect time for me. I'm trying out NMM seriously for the first time and that was me yesterday: "man, all this blending and layering is just taking so long...oh...right...oil paints...they're a thing...and I do have a set of them...sure thing boss...right away boss...I'll grab the white spirit now boss.😍

[@brachson]

Good job Marco. Especially the points on the “logistics” of the painting process are important for all those people who plan to paint large numbers of models up to a good standard.

[@guillaume3702]

Thank you !! I was struggling to get the right consistency and overall approach on oils for days !

[@jamesfrederick5658]

I had never used oil paints for painting until discovering your channel a few weeks ago with the release of cursed city. Followed along with your guide for painting zombies and after almost finishing 40 of them I feel confident enough to move onto some other models such as the wolves and blood knights in the same range. Thank you so much for your videos!

[@fateweaver9844]

You sir are a god amongst mortals.

[@MarcoFrisoniNJM]

[@Carbide-1]

Cheers Marco! I'll be giving this a go very shortly 😎

[@marekjanousek5443]

Same as others, you inspired me to buy oils to get my wash game to the next level and now you bless me with this. Burnt umber, black and magenta might get some new coloured friends this week! Love the video superb as always!

[@dv_xl]

Sweet! This looks great!

[@78dentedhead]

Love your vids Marco! I have been playing with your methods and love the way oils work on minis, wish I'd known this years ago. Plus you sneak those jokes in and crack me up :D

[@raphaelle_colors]

Every video I see, I want to try want You show us :D I just have to find a random miniature to try oil paints ! Thank you to share your opening approch in the hobby. I want to see more of what we can do with oil and other medium.

Fantastic tutorial Marco

[@estufilla]

I am the "old way" miniature painter. Been painting for a couple of decades, and I'm one of those "100 glazes a toe". I just can't bare to see any transition paint, so it can take me a even months to paint a single miniature. Never seen this kind of painting in my entire life, and it looks really nice to be honest. I see in other of your videos that you have a lot of interesting painting techniques, and even paints that I would never thought to be used on a miniature. Gtz man, you have my respect and my sub.
