Learn how to PAINT Female Faces BETTER

[@robertlock7181]

I am a newbie to hobby. 74 years old and still appreciate beauty and skills to learn. Have already started by painting a wonder woman and cat woman. Your methods were my baseline guide . Well done

[@suhtangwong]

First video I've seen on painting female faces, nice and great tips! Wish I had air brush.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Thank you so much!

[@jasonroyster9111]

Working on a figure of my wife for Christmas. Thank you for helping me not make her look like a dumpster fire! Lol

[@SloanArtistry3DPrinting]

Great video! Thanks for sharing

[@TK-421_66]

I have been binging skin painting videos recently because so far I have only painted masked characters covered head to toe. Time to branch out a bit. Thanks for the tutorials

[@TheCreativeCollector]

You're most welcome

[@TheIcemanModdeler]

Thanks for sharing, using makeup on the heads I’m working on now, so easy to do blends and shading and feathers away nicely, so much easier than using thin glazes.

[@mikemodel]

Thank's for the video it help me a lot I am back on it after 30 years thank you Michel Harvey 👍👍🤯

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Great to hear!

[@Oye_Gallard]

Retaking those long forgotten skills, thanks for all your videos! you have amazing tips and skills!

[@321CatDaddy]

Nice work, clearly explained and broken down for that booger - boo that is face painting. I learned a lot that I will definitely be using on the next figure I tackle. Thanks!

[@Jaylea1010]

Very helpful, thank you! I will say, her eyeshadow needed a hair more blending out, and add a touch more highlight to her cupids bow, you'll have a much more polished look. The stippling for her skin tone was awesome!

[@mzsherman]

Totally worth watching! Thanks again for doing all of these for all of us that can't afford a Slideshow and want to learn to do it ourselves!!

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Thank you!

[@christopherwatson157]

Great video, great channel - I regularly check you out along with a couple others and compare your various techniques then comp together a clearer idea of what I want to achieve. Appreciate your efforts and B. Widow's face came out real well.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Awesome, thank you!

[@brianlearntech]

Thanks. I can do this. I've watched others that were overwhelming.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

You can do this! Don't ever give up!

[@ericchristopher1687]

I'm working on smaller figures, such as 1/24 and 1/48 scales, but even so, I think some of your techniques can be used, adapted just a bit. I do use Vallejo paints, but first spray the basic skin tone using Tamiya flat flesh acrylics. The Vallejo paints I apply with brushes, as the faces are just too small to attempt shading and highlights by airbrush. Thanks for the great video.

[@sandracreeth6510]

The way you done the eyes was great as I,ve not done eyes yet,maybe at Christmas I,ll get a printer and I,ll be in touch

[@mrhasfun]

There was a lot of useful information here. I'm still in the study phase but when I'm finally printing and painting figures to add to my man-child collection, I know where I'll be coming back. Plus, thanks to your channel I've at least narrowed down the printer I want (the Anycubic Photon Mono X) Thanks for making and sharing this, man.

[@TJLil001]

I'm a newbie and been 3d printing and want too paint the figures and you had some nice tips...

[@ericadler9680]

Very helpful. I'm starting to paint my very first statue hopefully next weekend.

[@ArmanRC]

that was so much skill to make that, i dont thing i cant do that

Very well done. Looks really realistic. Do you perhaps paint miniature figures. I have some lead figures that I'm busy with between marvel and DC characters. Would like too see how you paint some of them. Like 1:21 scale.

[@Grossman2868]

Thanks for the info. I'm painting 1\7 pilots for my rc airplanes and need all the help I can get!

[@arthurcabral-zq6gb]

Your method seems best!

[@tbray]

just one thing - the airbrush settings - do you adjust the flow for each element (base coat, highlights, lowlights, etc) and if so, by how much - and how? I paint - paintings, that is, i use acrylic and oil mostly - but i'm new to airbrushing so i'm hoping to get some pointers on how to set up the airbrush so that i can do heavier and lighter detailing. edit - i wrote that right before you started talking about entering the psi and watering down the paint. And sealer. THIS is why I should watch the whole video before asking questions lol

[@F1DesignUS]

And just for another comment to help the channel.....this turned out SO great!

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Thanks my friend! Much appreciated.

[@sven_m.75]

Awesome Video! Great work, thanks!!!

[@DavidRelich]

Amazing video, thank you! Two suggestions if I may: 1) if your camera allows it, set the white balance/exposure to a fixed value. Sometimes the face looked too orange, sometimes too pink, sometimes burnt out (over exposed), etc. 2) share links to your other videos in description so that those "i talked about this in another of my video" videos are easier/quicker to find. This would be so helpful and a real time saver for those of us a little short on time 😆 Cheers!

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Sorry about that. I use my camera phone but I'm working on getting an actual camera. lol And yes I'll leave more links in the videos. Thanks for reminding me. I'm old.!

I follow your video on how to do eyes but I’m still failing. What am I doing wrong. Your prints all come out awesome. Wish I could do that.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Eyes take a lot of practice and patience. Make sure you have a fine tip brush, some magnifying glasses, perhaps a micron pen and just take a head that you're not using and practice. Try it once, then primer over it and do it again and again.

[@TheSpider-ManSanctuary]

@@TheCreativeCollector what kind of primer

[@TheCreativeCollector]

I use Krylon Color Maxx primer @@TheSpider-ManSanctuary

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Glad it was helpful!

[@MarcLepage_RetroModelCars]

thank you so much for this very instructive video . When you talk about sealing beetween two phases , you talk about satin varnish ? Many thanks again for your sharing. It s a real treasure for beginner like me :)

[@TheCreativeCollector]

I use a flat varnish mostly because if you use a satin or gloss you can dull it out when you add more paint or your paint will look too shiny.

[@tsundokus]

what is the type of sealer you use i normally go with this matt/flat rattle can from minwax and not really fond of so im looking for something better

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Check out Krylon Color Maxx flat. It's the best I've used

[@mikeduderz]

Do you have video that shows what all goes into the base you use. You say, "A little mixture that I always talk about that I mix up". Thank you very much for this video. I've been struggling with skin tones, eyes, lips, hair, etc. Hope this is my holy grail. Thanks again.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Hey Mike. I do have a couple of videos that go more into what I mix up for skin tones. Scroll through but I think the second one third video I ever made was on mixing skin tones.

[@laurenblakley8069]

Couple of questions: What primer do you use? What do you use for sealer?

[@TheCreativeCollector]

I use Krylon Color Maxx both for primer and flat clear coat.

Thank you for the info. You keep it simple and easy. A lot of videos make you crazy. I have been doing this on and off for a few years. Just retired and need more to do. Also is it possible to make some side cash as well and have you ever sold your work. I would like to keep this as a hobby but a couple of extra bucks wouldn't hurt. Any thoughts and thank you again. Keep up the great work!!!!

[@daveredhead4988]

Do you have a list of the colours, like the made up ones? Or a close version? Gonna try this I think

[@TheCreativeCollector]

I don't. When I mix up skin tones I just try and combine colors to get the exact tone I'm looking for.

[@DUSKtillDAN666]

Hope you dont mind me asking, what's in the mixture you made that you show at about 1:32 of your video?

[@TheCreativeCollector]

I'll have to go back and look but if you're referring to the skin tone, it's basically a light tone from Vallejo mixed with a dab of rose and dab of light brown and then I add some off white to lighten it up a bit. It takes a little experimenting with it.

[@DUSKtillDAN666]

@@TheCreativeCollector thanks for replying bud. I'll have to see if I can mix up something like that for myself. Loving your videos by the way.

[@omarsensei]

Thx u so much for this video!! you help me a lot! only one question, what do you use for sealing? Thx again!

I have a question what did you actually use on the lips to colour them I noticed you had some kind of pallet thing ? and for the shine as well was that just varnish or something fantastic work as always your videos constantly help us thank you and have an awesome weekend

[@slougo5909]

Just found your channel as I'm a 64 yr fella who just got into modeling 3 yrs ago, the last time I modeled I was 10. My question, can you PVA glue the resin base and say Flock it?

[@TheCreativeCollector]

I'm sure you can. The good thing about these models is tge possibilities are endless.

[@dkev001]

Do you not add light reflection to your eyes? I also made up large batches of light and dark skin tone. Makes life so much easier.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

No I don't. Reason is because if you put a little white dot and then gloss it, you lose the true color of the eye and it looks unnatural. So I let the gloss reflect it from the natural light.

[@adebem]

Great video as always! Congrats! By the way... What are you using to seal her?

@@TheCreativeCollector that would be great, I have yet to find a good video going over that process

[@mikek2824]

I have a question about your base coat for skin tones. In your pre mixed bottle is it all paint or is it mixed with thinner or water? Also do you have or know of a video about blending/fixing a skin, face tone when you make a mistake with another color and you don’t have a match to the exact skin tone color you used? If that makes sense?

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Really good questions! Yes I do have a little bit of thinner in my mix however I do thin it again when in the airbrush. Paint can thicken up over time while in the container. I don't have a video on how to fix tones but it seems like maybe I need to make one. I've had this question asked several times before.

[@mikek2824]

@@TheCreativeCollector thank you for sharing! I made a mistake and started mixing a lot of paints and got a nice tone, but I had to paint everything because my final coat was on the reddish side. But it actually turned out great with a redish under coat. And that would be awesome if you can make one one day.
