Taking a virtual oil painting class with #Malte #Dueholm. Week two’s homework: paint the initial layer of hair with oils. I was shocked at how intuitive it is (at least for me) to use oils! Total fun! #maltedueholm #watchpaintdry_minis #wpdminis.com #minipainting #nerdlings #oilpainting #wip #art

A painted miniature bust of a Caucasian brunette woman wearing a purplish blue corset and a blue ribbon as a choker. Her hair seems a bit glossy because the oil paints aren’t yet cured, though highlights are painted on, adding to the effect. Front view.

Taking a virtual mini oil painting class. First assignment with the oils: simply draw and blend some squares and get a feel for the paint. In prep for painting the mini’s hair, I also played around with a gradient for the highlights. #nerdlings #minipainting #art #malte #dueholm #oilpanting

Two pieces of plastic with six pairs of squares (two pairs of yellow ochre and Indian red, two pairs of Winsor yellow and Indian red, a pair of alizarin crimson and Winsor yellow, and a pair of alizarin crimson and yellow ochre) blended together. There is a square of violet with a gradient of a desaturated green on it. There is a rectangle of Indian red with Winsor yellow blended, and two rectangles of yellow ochre with Winsor yellow blended. There is also violet mixed with progressively greater concentrations of Winsor yellow and white, which ended up a washed out desaturated green.

Corrections made for the oil painting class by #Malte #Dueholm #Baadsgaard. (YT: watchpaintdry_minis, wpdminis.com). Focus is on basing matte acrylic paints so the oils have something to bite into, to have clean border separations, and to paint the eyes. #nerdlings #minipainting #oilpainting #bust

A bust of a brunette green-eyed woman wearing a bluish purple corset and a blue choker. Only matte acrylic paints have been applied to establish a base cost and give the oil paints something to bite into and stick.

Taking another virtual class with Malte Dueholm Baadsgaard, this time an oil painting one. Base coated the bust with matte paints so the oils can bite onto the mini. Will clean up the lower eye liner later. #malte #dueholm #baadsgaard #watchpaintdry_minis #minipainting #nerdlings #oilpainting

A miniature bust of a woman wearing what seems to be a purplish bustier and a black ribbon tied like a choker around her neck. Her hair is black and her eyes are green. These are merely base coats and layers of oil paints will follow. The skin was painted with Pro Acryl’s tan skin and the rest was painted using Golden SoFlats paints, black, white, blue violet, phthalo green, and permanent green.

Super fun class with #Michal #Szymeczko (Mihausz Studio), I highly recommend! The workflow taught me a ton though the class didn’t finish the mini. Really happy with the result even if incomplete! #lava #mermaid #lavamermaid #mihausz #mihauszstudio #wip #miniaturepainting #minipainting #nerdlings

A lava mermaid being used by Michal Szymeczko (Mihausz Studio) to teach a workshop. Looks like a stereotypical mermaid on rocks, except she appears to be glowing as if she can easily swim in lava. There are lots of yellow, oranges, and reds reminding one of a fire or lava. Front view.

Took a fabulous class on skin and #NMM with Mikhal Pisarski. We all ran out of time to paint the leather, hair, eyes, and some details. I didn’t deeply understand until about 75% of the way through and tried to refine/adjust but ran out of time. I will repaint this bust to cement what I learned.

This may be the final mini I have that I cannot dentify. It’s seems to be a peryton, a winged stag. I think it’s from Ral Partha, has an RPM stamp on the bottom. @delaneyking.bsky.social, do you have any ideas? I’d offer a virtual cookie, but you deserve a virtual cake!

Mini of the month - John Blanche Entry 23 by @shadowcat24.bsky.social John’s Ogre Chieftain #Nerdlings #MiniOfTheMonth

Fully painted Caucasian ogre on a small hill looking down on a desertscape or dried riverbed. He’s looking menacing, with a club resting on one shoulder, armor on his other shoulder and waist, a copper bracer, loincloth, and leather leg wraps. The landscape is adorned with details like grass, tufts, flowers, dead leaves, vines, other foliage, and a human skull.

He’s painted using a Zorn limited palette, inspired by John Blanche. The paints used were all Golden heavy body acrylics and the colors were titanium white, yellow ochre, cadmium red light, and bone black.

Because there is no blue in this palette, artworks using it tend to have rich skin tones, browns, reds, oranges, and white and black tones, along with desaturated greens from a mix of yellow ochre and black.

A photo of a wet palette with black, white, yellow ochre, and cadmium red light on it, with mixes of browns, greys, reds, and greys that are leaning greenish. (The black is a semi-opaque bone black, which leans blueish when diluted. For this reason, some greenish tones are possible.)

A study of the Zorn palette, which dates back to around the late 1800s and is composed of a limited palette of bone black, titanium white, yellow ochre, and cadmium red light. There are gradients of mixes of two and three of these colors in different proportions.

A page with color swatches of different combos of four paints, black, white, yellow ochre, and red. I’m going to paint only using these colors (known as a limited palette) and the swatches help me see what colors I’ll be able to mix. These particular colors together are know as the Zorn palette.

Three products used to make the plinths in the next photo: Musou black (supposedly the world’s blackest black), Howard Butcher Block Conditioner, and Varathane One Step water based Ealry American stain and poly sealant.

Three two inch wooden blocks stacked, one painted black, stained light brown, and natural with oil/wax.
