    He isn't actually grinding the vermillion (which is already ground) but rather mulling, which is distributing the pigment evenly throughout the binder (in this case, oil).

    Dear sir. Do I have to tell that I love your dutch accent. I loved this, even if I am familiar with paint makings since many years. I love when you say Rembrandt in a way that he would have said.
    I am a swedish old man, and understands just some words here and there, that we share, but I love the power and poetics in the dutch language.

    You can still buy lead-white, its not illegal, but it's expensive and comes with a lot of warning signs (see cremnitz white). Also to mix green it's best to use an already greenish blue and already greenish yellow, if you use an orangy yellow mixed with a purpely blue you'll end up with mud like this. Thirdly watch out while painting with vermilion (cadmium) it's almost as toxic as lead paint, don't throw a rag around your shoulder with fumes of terpentine mixed with cadmium paint if you don't want cancer and don't grind its powder on a plate without hand and breathing protection. And lastly, if you paint in thick oil paint it won't keep the exact shape you painted it in when it "dries" because the oil shrinks. I believe studies say Rembrandt added chalk and ground glass and sand and all sorts of weird shit to make his impasto effects. I know this is a basic how to video, but you've got to inform people correctly on this shit (especially as the rijksmuseum) because people can get serious health issues.

    I use both for my ww2 models for weathering the vehicles never used the egg though inwas looking for a pigment binder inuse enamel thinner with pigments for all different dust oil and streak n grime to rust effects! And using oils is a bog part of it but we have to squeeze abit of paint out on a bit of cardboard to soak up the linseed oil or it just doesn't stick to plastic or metals and again thinner with enamel thinner is perfect for streaking from bolts like oil n grime with burnt umber yellow ochre titanium white dotted about on a Sherman or a Russian t34 and pulled down streaking in the base coats of the Russian and olive drabs it really gives a beautiful worn weathered effect to vehicles! Some of the best artists are modelers these days replicated weathering effects isn't easy! Can't just slap it on and make it look natural and to the correct scale! Refinement is key! I don't think I'll try the egg its nothing to soak into on plastic so will rot and smell

    Is flaxseed oil interchangeable with linseed oil? Or is linseed processed differently for paint?

    • @TheAndreArtus
      @TheAndreArtus 4 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Technically they are the same thing, oil pressed from the flax seed (aka linseed). You have to be careful though. While many languages do not make the distinction in English "linseed" is used to describe the oil when prepared for paint or wood treatment purposes, this oil is likely solvent extracted and may contain toxic siccatives and is thus not suitable for consumption, whilst "flaxseed" is used to refer to an oil prepared for culinary use which may contain mucilage or added antioxidants (to prevent it from going rancid) that make it unsuitable for use as a paint medium.
      Artist grade linseed oil can be prepared from [unadulterated] flaxseed oil by washing out the mucilage. If all the steps are done using food safe methods and materials then the end result will remain food safe, but you **cannot** make that assumption for any oil if not processed by yourself or a trusted source. To stay safe don't use oil marked as "linseed" on your salad (or any culinary application).

    • @TheAndreArtus
      @TheAndreArtus 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Depends on what you mean.
      The yolk is a binding agent, it's not a solvent. Unless you intend to grind the pastels down for pigment (to mix that into the yolk to make your tempera) you are likely just going to end up with an eggy mess. The pastels already contain a binder, sometimes water soluble, that may (or may not) react deleteriously with the yolk.
      If you wish to use the yolk as a fixative you may end up smearing the pastels instead. The parts that don't smear will likely ultimately flake off.
      It's worth an experiment.

    RAW umber

    Carmine or Scarlet
    Aureoline or brilliant yellow deep from Blockx

      Though I agree with many colors, Zinc white is very problematic. Yes, it is a nice subtle transparent white much like Lead white, but it also gets very brittle in time. And may peel off the canvas or at least cause cracking. I use titanium white mixed with marble dust in oil. Makes it more transparent and subtle in mixtures, though this is also not a great idea because marble dust in oil yellows considerably - not desirable for white paint. I guess there isn’t a good substitute for Lead white. Also on a chemical level, where Lead white creates an incredible paint film

      Also, vermillion was used often, but there aren’t any good substitutes for it. Cadmium red is also poisonous, and is also much stronger than vermillion (which is a very kind color in mixtures)

    I think tempera would not adhere to a regular acrylic gesso canvas. The whole painting would slip off. Chemistry?

    I take it from the way he is handling it that the vermilion was not real vermilion (HgS) although it does cover like real vermilion.
    Nickel Titanium Yellow? Isn't that anachronistic? Surely, lead tin yellow, unless he has been given the wrong paint.
    You can make your own Azurite paint - the ground pigment is not hard to get hold of and the real thing looks nothing like the grey-blue in the video.
    White????? Waar is het wit? You can make your own lead white (the stuff that Rembrandt used) by rotting small rolls of roofing lead with strong vinegar for half a year then grinding the flakes under water in a mortar and pestle, letting it settle, wash it a few times then dry out, add oil and grind into paint. Treat it with more respect than you see the vermilion treated in the video and you will have a beautiful white that will not kill all of your colours in the way that titanium white does.

      The lead paint is only a health hazard when you ingest it in some way. You are right that it's superior to TW (at least in terms of mixing and flexibility). I'll happily paint with it (without getting paint on my hands ) but I will leave the manufacturing of it to someone else.

    This is so cool! I want to try egg tempera. But do I need to use gesso on the surfice, and what fabric (canvas) surfice did the old master use? 😃

      Can I use cotton fabric? Or other fabric? - have only used acrylic and canvas I buy in art store, and gesso.
