Are Oil Paints Better Than Enamel Washes??? | Jagdtiger 331 | Takom 1/35

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

My friends, it's time for a small change. This time we're going to paint over the entire model with various oil paints in order to create numerous effects - pin washes to outline all the details, oil dot filters for that nice, faded surface, and ambient occlusion/fake highlights and shadows to compensate for that 3-tone German camouflage without any special effects such as color modulation, zenithal light or distressing. So how do oil paints stand up against pre-mixed enamel weathering products?

    Another benefit to your dots after washes approach [at least to my lazy wargamer brain] is the filter adds subtle highlights to the washed areas, This is most noticeable on your tool clamp welds as you blend the sides, it transfers like a drybrush highlight.

  • @peterjackson5594

    I used oil for washing. Then I started using AK washes. Now I think that oil is still more practical because using the same colors you can make one mixture for the filter, the second mixture for washing and another one for tinting. You just need to correctly select the oil paints according to the size of the piment grind.

    Hey, loving the way this model is going! I have quick question: How long do you leave the dots to dry on the surface before you start to blend? And do you blend with a ry brush, or with a little bit of thinner? I've tried doing the oil dots on a few models, and never managed to get results I was happy with. :(

    In Soviet Russia we take oil paints by "Nevskaya Palitra" ($2 for 46ml tube) and thinned it by technical white spirit ($1,5 for 1000ml in glass boutle). It may stink the entire floor of an apartment building, but we are get used to. P.S. This is joke, ofcourse. Tikkurila 1050 makes great for this case. But oil pains like "Ladoga" and "Master-Class" is very good for people who can't buy even Wilder paints. From Russia with love!
