I decided to take the day off work today to try and have a bit of a blitz. As ever with these things, the ‘blitz’ also involved getting three loads of the kids clothes washed, hung out and dried! So, I made reasonable progress but not as much as I’ve have liked.
The jackets are probably the largest areas to paint:
- base coat: Vallejo Model Color Khaki Grey
- main coat: Vallejo Model Color Buff
- higlight: Vallejo Pale Sand
I decide to do the drummers in the standard coats rather than reverse colours. Partly because it’s a fantasy unit so I can do what I want, but mostly because I painted them before I realised! 🙂
Next up is the small clothes. I’m hoping these will go quite quickly. It’s going to be all the little bits that take the time though!
Also, I can’t decide whether to do a closeup show of a single figure during the rest of the stages?
More soon…
Looking good mate!
Looking good mate!
I admire your persistence – I struggle to paint one 28mm figure at a time…
