Xander,
I used to make my own painting media that was Black oil with addition of beeswax.
I boiled it myself. It has to be heated up to 250 degrees Celsius. That is when dark smoke comes from it. So this is an OUT-door job.
The recipe:
10 parts Raw Linseed Oil
2 parts Bees wax
1/16 part Lead Oxide (Litharge, PBO, Lead Powder)
Good luck if you dare,
Allan
Ps. I liked it very much and may try it again for portraits.
