Painting desk WIP shots ACW & Roman Aux

 Once again the ACW army has taken priority this week the picture below shows them at abot 70% done they are now at about 90% done so hopefully the next pics wil be of them finished. the lad above needs some detail on horse and rider to complete it.
 the commanders once again still need finishing off
other than the ACW i've been working away on some Roman Auxillary they need some detailing and some shield transfers to finish them off

  3. Looking good Kent :)

    Have you considered varying the pants color or maybe the odd confederate grey hat for the odd union guy to break up the blue mass? they are very blue to my eyes in the pics en mass?

    cheers

  5. Hi Justin the colours for these lads are for the jacket dark Prussian blue with German grey 6% & black 2% mixed in then dark Prussian blue second coat next is intense blue and lastly flat blue
    For the pants flat blue then flat blue mixed with pastel blue 60% then if you want you can use pastel blue as as highlight makes it look better but in the end because this armies for me and they were mainly plastics I didn't.
    Hope this helps
