Time to update one of our more popular "How To" step-by-step videos on face painting for scale models and figures or busts. This one is with a 1/10th scale Young Miniatures resin bust of Brad Pitt from the movie Fury (YM1852).

Our other previous video for 1/35th scale figures is here:

This is a simple non-elitist step-by-step video guide to painting figures' faces using Vallejo's excellent Model Color range. This is aimed at everyday figure painting and our background is armour modelling. We have only really got into figure painting with busts relatively recently. This is a summary of the techniques we have picked up along the way. So this tutorial from scalewarmachines.com is aimed at beginner modellers & AFV model makers looking to paint realistic faces for their figures. It is not a masterclass, rather a simple technique for effective results. It should be accessible and easy to follow, even for beginners. If you want to watch a long-winded masterclass, check out one of the expert figure painter channels on You Tube instead.

We hope you enjoy this and that it inspires you to try your hand at a larger scale bust or figure.
