well that looked simple enough, thanks for sharing
I was resigning myself to buying an airbrush and spending more money to make my custom, I'm glad I found this complete tutorial. Thank you so much for sharing it.
Excellent paint job, thanks for the tips!
New to painting , this was incredibly informative. Thank you
You answered all my questions. Thanks.
Just what I was after. Simple and straight to the point. Thank you!
You're welcome! And thank you! Hope it can be of some help!
This was very informationally impressive, thank you.
thank you for sharing with your experience
Nice tutorial, THANK YOU!!!
OMG this is amazing! This may be just what I need to get my custom project looking proper! Thank you!
Glad I could help!
Great Job !!! I LEARNED SOMETHING TODAY
The my wife quote is too funny😂 thanks for the vid
Muchas gracias por tu información es genial tu trabajo.
Great tutorial.....such a steady hand.
Thank you!
Incredible job!! I am to lazy to use an airbrush. This video is awesome!!
Great tutorial!
Another AMAZING vídeo , more please !!!! Wet blending 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you! Will do!
Thanks for sharing. I prefer the more realistic skin tones over the contrast method. The realistic method is more life like.
Thanks for the inspiration.
Love the JRJR poster on the wall
You are so welcome!
I am in awe how you painted the white in the eyes perfectly on the first try 🤣🤣🤣 i ALWAYS have to clean it up with flesh tone 😭
what do you use to clean up the paint error?
Just water
@@TheCreativeCollector thank you🙏🏻

I can’t thank you enough for this video, it helped me finally paint flesh tones successfully today after a long line of failed examples and just base reluctance to attempt again. Thank you so, so much!
🤟💀🤟
Keep doing it bro please) Greetings from Kazakhstan 🤲🏻
I’m working up the nerve to paint my fist 1/10 scale head. Thanks for the tips. Huge help. 👍🔥🔥
Thanks man! helpful!
I was jusy about to ask how to do this without an airbrush. Nice! Thanks for the videos!
A trick I learned was to use a makeup wedge instead of a brush on bigger figures in order to minimize brush strokes.
Love this video . Great job man .
Appreciate it!
That was a sweet video. Keep up the great work man.
Thanks, will do!
une superbe video pleine de bons conseils. merci pour le partage.
nice video, thanks! i will try to use a paper with white for do the white hair.
ngl, a smooth airbrushed base layer is game changing
Nice work dude!
Thanks!
Up until I watched your video I was scared to paint faces. You have givin me confidence as well as explained how to thin the paint with the wet pallet. I have a few 1/16 figures to paint and this afternoon is the perfect time to start on them
Thats awesome Dan! Keep it up! Good luck on the paint.
Love the eyes!
Hey Henry.. I came here after printing the upper body for the Kraven bust from Wick3d. Helpful and easy to emulate as usual. Awesome content man 👍
Cool, thanks
Amazing!
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks for sharing
like always, nice video tutorial buddy!
Thanks!
Amazing job. For a long time i was thinking i would forcefully need an airbursh to get a good skin painting. I think ill save the money and buy more different skin tone paints.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
I haven't tried painting eyes yet, I'm just terrified. I make 1/12 & 1/18 customs mostly. This video was really clear and easy to understand. You took the time to explain what you were doing and why, which I found really helpful!
Glad it was helpful! Now go paint some eyes!
I'm about to start working on custom McFarlane DC Multiverse figures. Much smaller scale than your Dr Strange. Your tips should help a lot. Thanks!!
Amazing how real the skin tone looks! - What colours did you use to make the base skin tone please?
I have a couple of videos on skin tones. Check them out! There's a few ways to mix them.
Excellent work brother! Thank you I recently got a 6K Anycubic photon( res) so I’m new to this type of painting. I ordered a semi low end air brush & have a vast acrylic palate. Do you hybridize tools if both brushes and spray are available?
Have you worked with super high detail already made eyes? It’s look is ridiculous. I do 1:1/UV cast and carved resin art and my banded octopus turned out almost scary 😊. These have a cornea and striated irises with different size/shaped pupils and from about 2 mm across to probably about 10-20mm. Any brushes or products you’d recommend? Do touch have an air b? What kinds are good?
🔥🔥🔥🔥 I customize 1/10 and 1/12 and can’t ever get my paint right for the eyes. It’s either too thin and runs or too thick and globs. I like to see you do 1/10 or 1/12 head.
I need to learn to paint I’ve seen cool statues of things i like online but they’re always unpainted
Henry, do you get a better finish with brushes or an airbrush, ? Another great video 👍
Both! It depends on what the situation calls for.
Another great tutorial! Any tips for darker skin, like Wesley Snipes? I have a Blade model to paint but I'm not sure how to get a realistic skin tone.
It's almost the same process. You just have to build up more layers with the pink or red in your skin tones. You can also use a glaze over the darker tone. It might make it easier to see at first.
Great video and straight to the point of things,oh can you say how you paint fur to look like fur as i am painting a warrior with her head-dress on that has fur on it please
Thank you! And painting fur is a matter of wet blending and dry brushing. I like to use the airbrush on fur because it makes it seem more natural. Check out my Kojiro Panther video. I paint feathers on there and fur is pretty close to that method.
You are amazing
Well thank you 😊
Hello what brand are the paint used in this video, also where could I get it looks awesome!
I use Vallejo paints. You can find them online, at a hobby shop, or on Amazon.
Hi can I ask do you print the figures and busts you paint or do you buy them. I can never seem to find any that are reasonable priced cheers
I print and paint everything myself.
Hey CC, what clear coat did you use for the eyes and the lips here?
I used a Vallejo gloss.
I feel like I want to get spray can of flesh tone to accomplish smooth look. I painted 1/12 heads before and hate the look of paint streaks on the surface of the face and I did apply 4 thin layers. I used acrylic paint from Walmart. Would Citadel be better for flat, smoother look?
Any paint would work fine as long as you thin it out good. Paint in layers with thin paint and you should eliminate streaks.
Hello nice video… I have a question can i combined tamiya paints xf-15 and xf-64 for color skin for the head of boba fett ( the mandalorian) ? Thanks
Yes you can! I combine Tamiya colors all the time.
Have you ever tried tube "oils" ? Have you ever painted a full size store maniken ?
Yes and yes
For plastic do
You have to primer first before painting with acrylic or no ?
I would. That way paint will stick better on the model
super video ..cant find the clear coat in UK..so can i use :
Rust-Oleum AE0040003E8 400ml Crystal Clear Matt
That one works good too. Just don't get too wet a coat on it when spraying. It might stay too glossy.
I have been sculpting and painting figures for the past 2 years which has caused a lot of floaters in my eye ...do you also get floaters doing detailed work?..what kind of environment should I have to do these kind of detailed sculptures?
I use some optics to help see those details and make it easier to focus. Otherwise I would never be able to see those details.
Great vid mate, do you prime the printed piece first?
Yes I do! Thanks for watching!
@@TheCreativeCollector Cool man. I forgot to ask you, where did you get the skin tone colour from, I'm based in Australia.
@@HotCarTrack I usually mix up my own using vallejo paints.
@@TheCreativeCollector Thanks for getting back.
What are your using to hold the model when painting?
I sometimes hold it with an alligator clip or scewer.
what about using pastel dust? do you think it would work for shading?
Yes! I've used it before
@@TheCreativeCollector Thank you so much! Does it cause problems when applying a finish, or are the dust particles too small to scuff it?
What color did you use for the beginning base coat on the skin?
Basic flesh from Vallejo
What size printers do you use for large prints
Mid size sla printers like Anycubic Photon mono X and Linant Base
What were you lightening the red with to get the pink. I didnt see any white ? Nice
I basically mixed it into a dark pinkish red and then thinned it down...way down and applied several coats in a glaze.
@@TheCreativeCollector what are you mixing it with?
@@bgrant1512 I'm mixing it with water. You can use thinner but water tends to work better for super thin paints.
How long do you wait between layers when painting the face?
Not long. Just when I see that it's dried. Sometimes I'll use a hairdryer to help dry it quicker
Hello, what kind of primer should i use? There are "Waterbased", "oilbased" and "acrylbased" primers in my lokal stores.
Either acrylic or water based
So when the tips of my thin brushes begin to warp and curve, you just cut them down? Trying to paint super fine detail makes me super nervous. I had a Spiderman vs Goblin model and was debating for days on whether I was going to attempt the lines- I decided to pass on it as the figures on the model are already pretty small. I didn't want to take the chance of making it muddy, but it's still bothering me that I didn't go for it.
Usually when the tips gets curvy and warp, it means your brush has had it. It could be that you're loading too much paint at the base of the brush and it dries or sometimes it just happens. I still use those brushes though! Sometimes you can use some brush soap and help straighten them out if you dry them inverted. Tamiya makes some great detail brushes as well. Check out the Amazon links in the description of one of my newer videos.
do you use matte finish paints for skin?
I use a flat finish. Matte tends to have a slight sheen to it.
Thank you very much
Amazing info,in fact I’m going to put a link in my video(coming soon) to this video if that’s ok?
Sounds good.
Just a question , so you didn’t use any primer for the base ?
I do believe I added a light coat. I don't use to much primer on the headsculpts because it takes away some of the details if coated too much.
HI,,did u primer first ur model?
Yes
Do you wait it to dry between each layer of paint?
Yes! Otherwise you'll get streaks in your paint
@@TheCreativeCollector thanks :D
Any tips to paint the area between the hair and skin, usually the brush come in contact with the skin area and the black paint ruins everything lol…
@@sentosa_K Haha! That requires a steady hand my friend. Or you can use some liquid mask to seal off that area where you need to paint.
Anybody got any tips on teeth color? It gets a little tricky when painting gremlin and monster figures it can turn out too white or too dark or a butter popcorn color. I got it before with a gray and white and a gold yellow color but man it can be tricky!
hi there, i am just wondering.. on that brand/color do you use for the hair color? sorry i am new to your channel thank you
I use a Vallejo selection of browns and beiges.
So I'm trying to paint a more pale skintone for battinson, how do you make the skintone more pale? Is it just more white?
Yes but also add a little beige color with it. Might even some rose color but just a tad.
What are you using to hold the head?
I use a gator clip
@@TheCreativeCollector who it work WWE action figures?
😎👍
Hi.. im newbie.. just want to ask are u use water colour or acrylic colour? Did you add water or thinner?
Thanks! I use acrylic colors and I use both water and thinner.
@@TheCreativeCollector thank for your answer.. you add water n thinner together?
Either/ or
So can I do this on the whole model without airbrush?
Yep. I've done several like this.
❤😅thanks for the video!!❤..
I have 2 heads to do but, dont have an airbrush....😅 pointless getting for two heads
💯
Thank you so much!!!!!! 100% you helped me with my figures now and in the future. Your the best bro, greatly appreciated!!!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
did you the print face in resin?
Yes I did.
what is the game color version of citadel Kislev flesh?
Not totally sure about that one. Maybe just their flat flesh. I usually mix up my own skin tones.
Do you print all of your own figures on a 3D printer?
Yes
Not about skintone, but why do you paint the pupil before painting the iris? I would've expected the other way around.
I'm not good with painting eyes, maybe I could figure out the answer myself if I wasn't half-stoned right now.
Do you still use the same spray clear today as we speak?
I do!
can't believe it took me this long to realize that red tinting is there to simulate the subsurface scattering.
🤘🤘👊🤘🤘
was primer used...?
Yes
man, in behind looks like a saber tooth :o
its from TDsaber? :O
Close! It's the Kojiro Panther from Black Forge Games.
Its looks so nice! 😍
Sir what is the paint brush size and name?
I use a Tamiya fine detail brush. I have an Amazon link in the description on my newer videos.
Thanks sir, you didn't create a head sculpt of anime character sir? I think If you create a head sculpt of Itachi from naruto and looks realistic. There will be an exploding of likes of that video. Well just saying.
how do i avoid having brush strokes showing up
Thin your paint a little more. Use thinner rather than water.
The wife comment is on point 😂
still try to do eyes, but mine still don't come out right. I keep trying. but fail every time.
The trick is to use some magnifying glass headset and a fine detail brush. I have to so I can see them. Makes it easier
@@TheCreativeCollector I bought the same glasses you have to help. But still have trouble: I just ordered that fine brush you have tonight and the paint sets
@thespider-mansanctuary632 You can also try a micron pen to place to dot in the eye as a starting point
@@TheCreativeCollector I will try to find one somewhere. Thanks
How come the brush stroke is not visible 😭
Thin coats and a lot of patience. lol
Can you do a Michael Myers please
I've been looking for a good model of him to do.
Awesome. So that is the use of watering down the acrylic. It drowns out the detail otherwise. It looks more easy control than air brushing. I am going to try doing an entire statue this way.
It’s too cartoonish, I would suggest learning more from experts.
You feel free to learn from whomever you want. I assume you're an expert then?
Skin is the hardest thing for
me to do right now. Well that and the face period. I noticed when I tried to do my washes, I did then the same way you did but the colors looked really blah. The yellow was super bright and the red and blue basically wiped off. How long did it take you to learn to paint faces realistically?
Honestly I'm always trying to improve. I'll be doing another video soon on an updated version with skin tones.
