Paint Easy to Follow SKIN TONEs with NO AIRBRUSH-- Updated

[@crush3095]

how come this is the only video that shows the steps like mixing and thinning and gives recommendations on ratios.. greatly appreciate this, I expect a lot of people who watch this will get a LOT of enjoyment out of applying this advice!

[@NikolasStow]

Bruh, my jaw dropped after that rose wash. Just started printing with my Elegoo Mars 3, absolutely subscribing.

[@Hartwig870]

Yeah, thats already better than 95% of any other skin tutorial on youtube.

[@TwoThreadsAhead]

I kid you not, I found this video because I came here looking for face painting tips so I can custom paint a Cable print I just got and it's literally a 1/12 variation of the exact one you're doing lol. P.s, You're a legend and this paint came out looking spectacular! Thank you for sharing your expertise with us all.

[@milliemay2708]

I hope you don’t mind me asking but where did you get the print? I’m currently working on a life size wolverine head print but I would like to use this print next

[@WrenchNato]

This is amazing work. You make it look so easy. I started painting a few months ago and flesh tones and eyes are something I want to start doing.

[@abstractfate6104]

A small bit of blue wash on the jaw line would get that realistic look on another level, usually it’s like a 3 level paint of yellow on forehead, red in the middle blue-ish on the jaw line. Was really hoping to see the blue under the 5:00 shadow

[@martincerny8106]

Ou man, absolutely stunning job. From the beginning i was just about “ hey its not the real skin tone “ but after the rose wash i was just “ ou sh*t thats amazing “. Thanks alot for this amazing tutorial. Definietly need to print tons of heads and start learning. 💪💪 keep doing an amazing job ! Thank you.

[@LatenightLyle]

I would love if you did a new video on painting faces for 32mm tabletop gaming miniatures! Some of this translates to the much smaller scale, but I’d love to see how close you can make a tiny face match the scale you often show on here!

[@hoshiko22]

THANK you so much for this video. I'm getting my first one but I don't own a air brush, nor will I be getting one, so it's nice to see this method as I have all the paint stuff already.

Nice, that video came just in time, the most skin tones I have done was on daredevil mouth or batman etc. , and I have been considering a one punch man project but kept putting on hold because of the face and with this video being so educational I might as well bite the bullet , a great one as always keep up the good work.

Heck Yea man, you knocked it out of the park, I appreciate the glazing in your skin tones around the eyes and cheeks. Airbrushing all the time gets boring for me.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Awesome! Thanks for tuning in!

[@cgrg69]

Thank you very much for your content as it is some of the best on KZbin. I would pose a challenge to you, first see if it can be done and second for your education in the challenge. Okay that said, the challenge would be a no airbrush, sculpture using only cheap craft paint and rattle can paint.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

I'm actually planning on doing a video like that.

[@centurycountess4949]

I really love your video on the skin tones with no airbrush. I am about to do some repaints from my 1/6 scale figures I was curious if these colors could also be used for a more paler skin tone? would we use more of one color and less of another? and is it possible to see it in a future video? It's much easier for me if I see the process. I've tried following a tutorial that's more verbal without a step by step and just explained with the finished result in the aritist's hand but Ive always found it easier seeing it step by step. and was curious if we could see what paler skin tones would look like.

[@darvenung]

Thank you for making these! I've avoided printing models cause of painting skins and eyes. D;

[@TheCreativeCollector]

You're so welcome!

[@dazwraps8213]

Best tutorial ever... Thanks

[@7RZ10]

Keep up the good work, man! Can you make a video using generic acrylics and mixing your own skin tone from primary colours? , because I don't really have stuff like Vallejo where I live. That would go very well with this video

[@TheCreativeCollector]

I will definitely look into it. Thanks for the suggestion!

[@Thatguy-uc3dy]

mix a lot of white with some brown and pink it will get you a basic Caucasian skin tone I have no idea how to get the skin tone of someone like blade but I would imagine adding more brown and less pink, you could try to experiment with yellow and red to get different shades, that is what I do, I experiment a lot, just look for your desired color and how to mix it online and try to achieve the same result, don't be afraid of making mistakes and test your mix on failed prints, (وحظ سعيد يا استاذ مروان)

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Yes Ive seen the video. I use that method every now and then. It's been around for a while. I dont have any plans on doing a video on it any time soon but maybe in the future.

I have stupid question. Why you have to seal base color before washes, can I apply washes color without seal base color? Will the results be different?

[@TheCreativeCollector]

I seal because I sometimes wipe away excess wash off for a certain effect and sealing keeps from wiping the paint underneath off. You don't have to seal however the effect is a little different because the wash will bite more on unsealed paint. I do both.

Brother. My life so stressed. I wanna dive into this.. how much for your entire paint set and brushes and all. What can I expect the budget should be.

It depends. You can start with basic sets that'll get you started and mix your own paints. You can but other sets along the way. Plus if you want to airbrush that's another expense.

[@arawak73]

But what about large smooth skin areas like on a woman. I dont have a problem painting skin tones on faces and male models who usually have more texture to the skin, but female models have a much smoother finish and its hard to hide your brush strokes on those larger areas. Id love to see how you work around this.
