PAINTING FIGURES' FACES - FIVE EASY STEPS - WW1 STORMTROOPER

[@Tim0nTh]

There's this special thing that happens where somewhere in the painting progress the face changes from 'just' a model to a person with warmth and liveliness in his face. It's fun to watch!

[@HO-bndk]

This is the first painted model face I've ever seen that actually looks like a human, and not some weird looking mask with over exaggerated shadows and highlights. Bravo!

[@scalewarmachines]

Thanks, very kind.

[@foreverplastickits138]

*Step by step your paint is very interesting to watch!*

[@mrcarlo1966]

Wow realy cool. Nice Video 👍🏻🤘🏻 Greetings from the Bastel Bude 1/35

[@ID-8491]

This is highest grade work.

[@kuntibolox]

How on earth do you get to blend acrylics! I've tried doing it on 1/35 armour with mud effect but it just drys too quickly so I've switched to oils. Top job BTW.

[@smellyfella5077]

Great tutorial. Are you using an acrylic retarder to slow down the drying time so you have more time to blend/feather the colors on the face?

[@scalewarmachines]

No - generally don't use them, certainly not in that case, I have experimented but not on this bust. If you are quick these Andrea Colors blend well.

[@ArmorModelsbyGlennBartolotti]

Nice 👍

[@goatrope19]

Hands down the best video I have seen on how to do faces. I am excited to try this on my 1/35 scale figures. Question, does this face kit come with instructions and hits?

[@scalewarmachines]

Hi thanks - no instructions with the resin kit. The Andrea face painting set (and all sets) have step-by-step instructions.

[@OzzysScaleModelerSecret]

Great tutorial mate :) Nice and well explained easy to understand even for beginners. Always a pleasure to see you busy doing your stuff :) Keep on the good work . Have a nice weekend and bench time mate . Greetings Ozzy

[@dretxeko]

Wow, amazing work!! Just one question. The way you blend with that flat brush... is it wet? Thanks in advance!!

[@scalewarmachines]

No usually dry

[@sherwoodforester4666]

Brilliant work, when you blend is it with a dry brush or is it slightly damp with a thinner?

[@scalewarmachines]

No dry, you’re sort of polishing the paint so it feathers and blends and in the process you’re drying the paint.

[@sherwoodforester4666]

@@scalewarmachines cheers I'm going to give this a try.

[@xjr13john]

Awesome brush work, is your eyesight good? or do you use a magnifier? I see the vid is 20 minutes long but how long did it take you to get to this point? Thanks

[@scalewarmachines]

Eyesight is going - will need reading glasses soon and then maybe magnifiers. What you see is pretty much step-by-step but with parts sped up 5x and a few edits, but 100 minutes is about right for these steps.

[@BearGrisham]

Awesome! When you’re feathering with the flat brush is the brush damp?

[@scalewarmachines]

Dry is fine. Maybe a bit humid would be ok too. Personally, I use it dry.

[@sixandup939]

Is the plastic bubble tray made for paint or from some sort of packaging?

[@scalewarmachines]

It’s packaging, but perfect for this task. A friend gave me loads, I think it’s from contact lenses.

[@christosrevithis6753]

Hi my friend you are always used Acrylics???? Thanks for the video...🙏

[@scalewarmachines]

For most things and figures yes. Oils and enamels occasionally for weathering effects. Not really for figures or faces.

[@sparker4614]

Great work. How long do you usually wait between layers?

[@scalewarmachines]

I don't really, just press on with these paints.

[@darrenanderson7969]

I may have missed it, but do you water down your paints or go in neat?

[@scalewarmachines]

Sometimes, but not much with the Andreas. They are thin enough to use neat. I checked my raw footage today and I used a steel palette with virtually no water and no wet palette.

[@bobsmytheable]

I was just going to say the same. 1990 semi final 😢 Thanks for the vid, great painting. Do you think starting with a white primer helps get skin correct?

[@scalewarmachines]

Well it helps with all paints: with coverage, finish, ease of working, I don’t think white really helps skin tones, sometimes I use black and don’t really detect any difference in the final effect.

Try this on a 1/35 scale lol
