Where:
Battlefield Berlin
Gneisenaustrasse 43
10961 Berlin
U- Bahn Gneisenaustrasse (U7)
Class Description:
The Germany Master Class will be a 2 day event that includes 16 hours of painting instruction. Meg will be providing a miniature for each student. The actual model will is to be announced at a later date.
The topics Meg will go over include but are not limited to the following:
Day 1:
Miniature Cleaning and Prep
Proper Priming Techniques
2 Brush Blending (a quick and efficient technique for smooth blends)-used in the Privateer Press P3 Studio on all studio models.
Painting Faces and Eyes
Color Theory-not a separate section but a hefty introduction will be provided throughout the class ensuring students get hands on experience with mixing and layering colors accompanied by explanation as to why it works.
Day 2:
Hair and Fur
Skintones
OSL (glowy bits)
Freehand
Basing materials
True Metallic Metals
Supply List (recommended)
Painting lamp-preferably one with a fluorescent or daylight bulb. Bulbs that are too yellow or too blue distort the color of the paint.
P3 paints (if you have them, they are best for 2 Brush Blending. Vallejo will also work for 2BB but will be more difficult. Reaper, GW and Scale 75 paint will not work with 2 brush blending.
Brushes
There are a few options. I use a Raphael 8404 Sable size 3 for blending and a Winsor and Newton Series 7 (standard not miniature sizes) size 2 for application and details.
You can also use a size 2 and 3 from Rosemary & Co Artists Brushes series 22 (not 33).
• You can get any good quality Red Sable Brushes as well in a size 2 and 3.
• I do not recommend Games and Gears brushes for 2 Brush Blending as they are too soft and floppy.
Dry well palette
Sketchbook and pen for note taking
Hair dryer (at least a couple for the class to share)
Files
Super glue
Hobby knife
White and Black Spray Primer for Zenithal Priming
Other minis to practice techniques on that include a well sculpted and defined face, fur/hair, weapons or shields, something that can be turned into a glowy bit, lots of skin and wide open spaces such as shields or capes to practice blending. You can bring whatever scale of mini you like but I recommend between 28mm and 54mm for this class.
