How To Paint FACES On Miniatures In 3 Minutes 

Short, sharp and to the point without all sorts of roundabout introduction or sales shenanigans.

7 months on and I come back to this video every time I want to paint faces for a refresher. Thanks for making it.

Yes, please. Do a second part for the rest of the mini.

I love that you just got to the technique with no fancy opening title sequence or whatever. Great video!

Great tutorial. Love the purple effect.

Omg best tutorial ever! I've watched literally hundreds of tutorials I kid you not! This was to-the-point and covered the ENTIRE face! Never thought to do eyes like that, and never knew to do a glazing at the end of the highlights. I struggled with this for sooo long until now. Thank you!

Hands down the best face painting tutorial I’ve seen fit minis on RU-vid. Well done!

Fantastic! You make good videos and your techniques make it look simple. Keep it up!

Really liked the quick straight forward tut. Liked and subscribed.

Amazing video, thanks

Wow = cant wait for part 2

thats a great tutorial!

This is awesome!! Instant share.

Super helpful tutorial! Thinking about picking up the gallia line from highland myself for mordheim.

Great paintjob! Also, the model looks like Joaquin Phoenix :)

Wonderrful!

Part 2 - yes please!

Simple easy process. Thank you! I hate painting faces, so this is a smooth process for me to work with.

Yes, part 2 please!!

Great job. I really enjoyed when you painted the chicks.😉

Thanks!

Great video.

Do a Part 2 please!

Can you do one with a face that doesn't have as chiseld features? I especially have trouble with softer faces like elves and those with more feminine features

Super cool!! For the shadow, did you use magenta or purple? Looks like magenta, right?

Rest of the model please. Good job!

What is this mini? I absolutely love this sculpt. To say nothing of the awesome paintjob you started.

What do you do if you make a mistake during the eyes? Just repaint with black and start over? I always run into this issue😭

What size brush do you use for details like this?

amazing work. could you please do a tutorial on how to paint feminine faces? possibly with make up too? painting sisters of battle heads feels hopeless, they all end up looking like men for me. i'm tired of stripping the paint off of tiny plastic heads.

For the love of God everyone do not make your paint this thick because that is how you obscure detail! Paint is what does it! When you add water it thins out the paint enough to not obscure the detail in the same way dipping your model in yogurt versus dipping it in skim milk.... Which would obscure the detail more? The thicker yogurt would after one dip but no matter how many times you dip it in skim milk there will always be the same detail. It's the same idea with Paint. Paint without water is thicker than paint with water. 5thin coats is always going to look 100 percent better than one thick coat. Always have to do at very minimum 2 coats.

That's not true. If your paint is really thin it covers up much less detail than thicker paint. If you do 3 layers of very thin paint there is going to be much more detail then if you made it thick enough for one layer to be enough. Adding water just simply doesn't make more medium which would typically obscure detail, instead water just evaporates. It might be a little bit of a pain but I find watering down my paint to the point of having to do 3 coats is the most optimal in my opinion. Please for the love of God don't try and get things in 1 layer. I paint competitively and this is one of the most important things. Other than that this guys coloring technique is pretty decent. I don't know why he dropped such a big bomb in the beginning though because that is something you discover pretty early on.
