what the difference between acrylic and oil paint? o.O i never use oils..

[josvanr]

@thunderlovelightning hi: main differences: 1) oil paint dries slower so you can work into wet paint for longer time. This makes creating smooth gradients of color more easy. 2) oil paint can have a larger concentration of pigment than acrylic. (but you have to get 'artist quality' oil paint) This makes mixing colors easier.

@josvanr ohh..now i get it. seems very interesting,i would want to try to use oil paint after this. thank you very much sir! :)

Do you ever use acrylics? Would you recommend them or oils?

[josvanr]

@Cruelhazard I did use acrylics once in a while. Dries quickly so more rapid layering than with oils. However, I developed my wet-into-wet painting technique to a point that I don't feel the need anymore to use more than one layer in a day. (ie I can spend more than 1 day painting wet into wet). Also in oils it seems to be easier to achieve the color you want.. So I'd try oils,but use good ones, eg Old Holland. (the cheap A series of oll holland will do)

@bronichka don't remember exactly. what you see in the video is probable 2 or 3 times 4 hours or so (wet into wet session with painting in the freezer over night); the bulk of the work. Then afterwards I tend to adjust and add.... can take long sometimes.
