JvC Paints

This is my gaming channel which I use to browse, comment upon and hopefully post wargaming related videos. I see myself more of a miniature painter rather than a gamer as I only get to game about once a month....if I'm lucky, but find time to paint daily. I live way off the unbeaten track of the fairly beaten track and in being so isolated use KZread as a means to keep up-to-date with the games I play (primarily Bolt Action now) as well as what's going on in the gaming world in general.

  • @jvcpaints
    @jvcpaints13 күн бұрын

    Thanks Mark. The flesh is a base coat of a color called Antique Maroon. It's an Americana paint. Then the first highlight is a Shaded Flesh color, like Dwarven Flesh from GW, but an Americana. Then, I give it a wash of a brick red. When that's dry, I do the eyes, then on the flesh I do a final highlight of a watered down light mauve. I use a 000 brush and have the magnifying glasses on.
