Re: How I paint figures.(easy and simple with gauranteed results
Bird or fine art colors. These are what JoSonja call their bird carver or fine art range of colors.
You may want to revise your color wheel to reflect these changes.
Cad yellow medium becomes Cad yellow light
Napthol crimson becomes Cad scarlet and
Ultra blue becomes Ultra blue deep
They have also added some new colors to their regular line.I picked up Olive Green awhile ago and use it a lot for the military colors.
You may want to consider this color for your first figures underpainting.For highlights you will need a yellow-white pastel like yellow oxide and for shade dark green.
If your figure has a leather belt and shoes buy a nice medium brown or red-brown for underpainting.
For flesh use a mix of burnt sienna,yellow ochre and white for underpainting.
Underpaint the rest in colors of your own choosing.
