Learning oils

 I've never painted with oils before. Sure, I've thrown black and brown on miniatures as panel lining or weathering, but never actually painted with them. There was a workshop in early 2025 run by Jakob Skovgaard Villien (https://www.instagram.com/pink_label_studio/) in St. Albans, and it was a real blast to try them out for model painting.

 

 I tried to pick a base and a theme that gave a feeling of nature attempting to bring warmth to someone. There's lots of different ways you could interpret the piece and meaning, but I was aiming at temperature and texture contrast really.

Such a different piece to my usual choices, and a beautiful scupt by Leila Khalili (https://www.instagram.com/leila_khaliliart/).
