Face Painting by OJ
The initial painting of the face is conducted with a 1:1 mix of Valejo 70.876 Brown Sand and 70.814 Burnt Cadmium Red.
Mouth and eyes are painted Black in the next stage...
Vallejo White is brushed with a fine Winsor&Newton Series7 (00) in the middle of the before mentioned areas.
Detail painting of the eyes is conducted with a light Blue circle and a Black dot in the middle.The lips are painted with Vallejo 70.814.
Highlighting of the face is done with a mixture of the face color(70876/70814) with Vallejo 70,815 Basic Skintone. Painted to the raised parts of the face.
Deep shadows painted with a mixture of the face color and a little bit Vallejo 70.950 Black.
Here we blending the contrast. A new skin color is mixed with more Basic Skintone (70.815) to the face color and heavily thinned with water. This mixture is applied like a wash over the whole face.
This process is repeated unless the effect is looking satisfying.
A mixture of the new skin color with more Vallejo 70.815 Basic Skintone and a little bit Vallejo 70.950 Black is brushed on the certain face areas of the five o`clock shadow toobtain a more greyish tone.
Here the painting of the face has been finished.The key of a nice looking painted face is the repetition of the whole blending and contrasting processes until the effect has a realistic appearance...😊😊😊
