Lol, primus sucks
FoxyGrandpa@lemmy.worldOPto Art Share🎨@lemmy.world•Just a small still life I madeEnglish2·10 months agoNice. Idk how the water soluble ones work but adding linseed oil makes the paint thinner but also fatter meaning it’s going to take a lot longer to dry. Gamsol is a paint thinner which will liquify the paint in a similar consistency but also makes it leaner so it dries a lot quicker. The brand is Gamblin and they make a lot of good oil painting supplies, although I do prefer Windsor and Newton paints

The same is with paintings and other animals related things from the past i.e. The gravestone of Dewey the cat
