In this Hobby Cheating Tutorial, I take you through a completely different way to think about skin tones and the way you render the colors. We can learn from the old masters and bring unusual colors together to render deep, interesting and varied skin tones that suit the individual piece we’re working on. Hope you enjoy!

You're videos are always masterclasses but this felt like something really extraordinary. The glazing stage blew me away.
I've been watching @GRGMiniatures do some fantastic videos on lighting and colour theory etc as well and I'm so excited to see experienced mini painters helping new painters move beyond "toys on a table" to genuine pieces of art.
Great video Vince. Have you tried (or thought about) starting from a green base directly? Then applying the pinks over the top like the masters? Or would that not work with acrylics?
Picked up some of yours and Ninjon pro acryl paints today they actually had them in store all the way over here in Perth 😮
Vince, in the future could you please make your voice over louder? Thank you.
Anyone have a link to the model?
As someone who loves to learn the roots, the old ways to do things, I’m lovin this! Doin a whole zorn palette project rn haha, it always tickles me to tell people that I’m studying the old masters to better paint my tiny plastic figures😁 Thanks mista V
This is a great video! thank you so much 🙂 if on the contrary im working on a "good" character which colours would you recommend for working the skin tones?
Inspiring, thank you for this upload.
Vince I have been looking for a resource on how to go about painting exactly this style of skin for a couple weeks now.
Thank you for what you do
Excellent. Sometimes one of your videos comes along and really changes the way I'm starting to look at painting. Thank you.
What a great tutorial and a fantastic WIP on the figure. You’ve given us a lot to think about to get more interesting flesh tones….and no matter how much we learn, we will inevitably be better painters because of your teachings. Thanks very much!
Wow. I was amazed seeing the skin tones come together. And then you did the candle-light. The last images of the figure with that cast light … wow. This is now my favorite example of OSL. I normally don't like it as, to my personal taste, it's often over-done. This, though. It bloody looks like it's glowing!!
Great video! Incorporating other tones into skin is something I struggle with, so I look forward to referencing this a few more times in the future.
This is more what I'm looking for when I go to watch a video.. I know warhammer is popular, but seeing the process for competition or display quality is where I get the most value out of a video. Really appreciate your work Vince, you're a good teacher and always point out things us normal plebs wouldn't think of. 🤘🏻
Hey Vince, an unrelated question: What apron do you use? I'm sick of getting paint on my good clothes and could really use something comfortable to sit down in
Loved the video Vince, loved the way you showed how to use non traditional mini painting skin. Like most mini painters I look at people from time to time and myself i.e how to do sun tanned skin so with summer here there are plenty of live examples lol. Thank you for sharing, I love your videos ❤.
Is this sped up, or is that how fast you actually paint?
Frazetta is truly the greatest fantasy artist of all time.
Don't forget that Monument is carrying The Morrigan so you don't have to pay international shipping
This is one of the best paint jobs I've seen, could easily stare at this for an hour
Fantastic tutorial, between yours and the folks over at Sideshow's videos, Im hyped up to try my hand at it. Shame that particular statue is out of my budget because its amazing.
Super interesting, cheers for helping us disseminate such a confounding topic, I certainly wouldn't have come up with that combo on my own. Before I go sit down and experiment for myself, for darker skintones, would you then go with darker shades of green and burgundy, or does it translate a little differently?
Loved the piece and the video! As usual, amazing stuff, Vince! cheers from Brazil!
