Hello everyone.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a tutorial covering painting faces/hands/arms using water-oils.

Ive had a good old search round the forums and cant find anything, but I know there is one here somewhere because I read it some time ago.

Its is for 1/35 scale US vietnam era figures, if that makes it easier.

Many thanks

Be warned !

As good as those articles are, the class never finished which is extremly frustrating given the amount of money I spend on oil paints and the Alpine figure (which I really had no further use for - still standing unfinished on my shelve)

Thanks for the links
Painting faces is the reason I don't make figures... Hopefully I can change this,
