Well I\'m translating an article from yandegio right now aout basic oil painting, and that\'s exactly what he says he does to help with ry time and to \'dull\' the paint.
He made his little oven by using a light bulb and a metal box. Hope this helps.

Well not all french people speak english as our language happens to be french. That\'s why I take some of my time to translate the articles that I find interesting, you\'ll just have to be patient.

Drying Oil paints in an oven will dull them or could even crack them. When I used Artists oils they dryed quicker when I mixed Turpentine (artist quality) with the paint. But i don\'t know about Miniature Oils.
Maybe you should consider using Acrylics with a drying retarder, they have a very similar working time to oils (you can control that with the amount of retarder you put in), and are less of a pain.
Oil paints & High-humidity don\'t mix.
But don\'t \'bake\' them. You will dry out the outer layers before the inner, making trouble:o

Hi there
the miltary model types (some who use oils all the time) are having a discussion on oio drying times here:
PF Oil Drying time thread
hopefully there\'s some useful stuff in there, about ovens/crock pots etc that may help

lol! This exchange reminds of a quote from bash.org:Well not all french people speak english as our language happens to be french.
And for something more on topic, has anyone ever tried drying something faster by placing it in a box with charcoal? Supposedly the charcoal absorbs the moisture out of the air, allowing things to dry at a normal rate.<KK> Anyone here speak Spanish?
<ste> i do
<KK> Shut up. You can\'t even speak English.
<ste> thats cuz i spanishI\'ve never had a chance to try it, but was considering the tactic when planning a spray booth.

@Wolf_fang: Milliput is heat proof, we used to make things that \'needed to be flame proof\' at University, Ahem!
But it will scorch, all scorching is, is the depositing of carbon particles from the flame. Incense burners scorch the worst, oily smoke (its the \'oils\' that smell nice).

That should do it, but it will discolour in time. Incense burners will make most things brown eventually.Originally posted by Wolf_Fang
