Oil paint, acrylic paint, watercolor paint, etc.

Various paints in tubes are sold at the art supplies store.

Do you know the difference between these paint?

In fact, all paints, including tube paint, are basically made from a combination of pigments and medical.

The pigment is the general term for the colors in the bottle lined up in this lab.

Rock paint, water dried paint, pigment, and glittering effect pigments are all the same friends.

Some people may think, "Why are you using the same pigments but have various paint names?"

Actually, it is not pigments to determine the type of paint, but why did you mix the pigment? In other words, it depends on what Medium (glue) is used.

In other words, if the oil is medium, it will be an oil paint, an acrylic emulsion will be acrylic paint, and the Arabi rubber is transparent watercolor.

There are two types of mediums: water and oil. This time, we will introduce paint that can be easily used by beginners. If you have a paint that says, "I think you can use it yourself," please try it.

① Nippon Painage paint (rock paint+glue)

The combination of rock paint+glue is mainly used in Japanese paintings and Japanese paintings.

For convenience, at the beginning, it is described as "Japanese paint paint", but it is generally called "rock paint" as well as a rock paint of powder and the paint condition mixed with glue. (It is also called "Iwasai" in China.)

The biggest advantage of this glue expression is that the paint is dried with the color of the pigment compared to other mediums. In addition, there are more than 10 types of rock paint, even in the same color, and as the name suggests, it is good to express the texture of the crushed minerals.

Due to the medium, it is difficult to make paint with a tube, and it is necessary to proceed with the production while making the amount you want to use every time you draw.

Here is a detailed usage of rock paint, so please see it together.

② Acrylic paint (pigment+acrylic emulsion)

This acrylic paint is a wide range of adjustments, from simple methods to your favorite paint, such as using tube paint or kneading with your pigments.

The biggest advantage of this paint is that when it is dried, it becomes completely water -resistant. You can make a wide variety of expressions, such as adding overnutting on top of it, adding various mediums and raising the transparency.

It is a recommended paint for hobby use, such as handicrafts and plastic models.

If you want to knead it yourself, this video is also recommended.

③ Transparent watercolor (pigment+Arabi rubber)

The feature of this watercolor paint is that there are many types of shapes, such as tube paint, pancakes, and self -made paint. The secret is the property that does not become water -resistant even if it is dry, and dissolves in water again.

Therefore, it is possible to perform a painting expression unique to watercolor paint, such as applying color once and dripping water from above.

In addition, although it is possible to paint repeatedly, as described above, there is no water resistance, so it is necessary to draw a picture while imagining what texture will be when mixed with the lower color.

④ Oil paint (pigment+medium for oil paint)

Like acrylic paint, it is a wide range of adjustments, such as using a tube -shaped one or customizing it yourself.

However, it is very dry, and the use of a solvent is used when diluting paint or washing brushes, so indoor ventilation is essential for production.

The most advantage of oil paint is that it is as wide as acrylic paint. Also, unlike water -based paints, it takes about a week to dry fingers because the paint is solidified by binding and polymerizing with oxygen in the air.

Instead, you can face the work relaxedly and proceed with the production.

In addition, use a pork hair brush to run a brush with a thick coating as you go, and then draw while calculating the drying time and oil absorption of the paint, and using a water -based paint on the base. Various expressions are possible, such as layering the layers of color with a thin coating.

If you want to make oil paint yourself, this Medium is recommended.
