Hello,

Encouraged by a fellow forum (Biskup) I decided to take part in the competition.

You're coming right along with this fellow! His weathered face is really standing out with your colors. He is going to look very menacing! :)

How long is it taking for your oils to dry?
 
Thanks!

Les oil paint should dry a few days. But there are some ways to speed up the process;)
But I try as much as possible to use these colors if it is not dried until the end. If I decide sprayed of the varnish is just wait a few hours to paint
and sprayed with a thin layer gently several times with an airbrush.

I use this 3 types of coatings, such as in the picture. Depending on what effect I want to get. The first two Talens allow us to obtain greater transparency of colors and can dry a little longer. Testors paint will give us a larger mat.

If the varnish is dry you can apply the fix. Applying then I paint diluted white spirit, turpentine and linseed oil even better.

Another bunch of photos ... I approach the end of a painting. Now gonna put a bust for a day to dry and then I put the fixes.
