This was for people that like the idea of oil washes but hate the idea of using solvents.

Great stuff! I am curious is there a big difference between the oil and water color washes? Disadvantages or Advantages one over the other? I have some oil washes and mineral spirits but this seems like it would be a lot more straight forward.

I gotta stop watching your stuff... I seem to buy new things after every video of yours.

Holy crap that is awesome! Thank you. I have wanted to try using oil washes but i can never seem to find the correct mineral spirit and then when i do its more expensive than i would like. this seems so much easier and less expensive.

Now that I would very much like to know as well

Is the varnish that is applied before I continue painting the model required? Does it keep the watercolor on while new wet paint is appled?

I have the same question. How nice they look and how close does they look to the oil washes

The watercolour will dissolve into the paint that you are applying over, its just to seal it in.

I also would like to see the differences between the water and oil colour washes

I ended up buying some water color for washes and personally I cannot see a real difference between oil and water color.

I prefer the water color as you don't have to varnish it before hand and water color tends to wipe off a little easier and smoother. Plus you only have to use water and not mineral spirits.

YMMV

mmmmmm maybe I'll try it
