ordinarygaming.blogspot.com A while back I asked about using Pollyscale British PRU Blue for Union trousers. I bought a bottle and tried it on a dozen 15mm figures, painting over the Vallejo Sky Blue as well as over unpainted black primer. I posted the result on my blog. I think I have found a trouser color I like! |

Looks like a great choice. Well done and thanks for posting. |

Looks good. As a former reenactor I can tell you there is a definite green twinge in Kersey blue cloth trousers. If they last long enough to fade they can become quite green. |

Nice – thanks for the post – the right colour (color) for Union trousers seems to be one of those threads that never end |

Looks nice. ANd yes it is an aircraft colour, British PRU, being British Photo Reconaissance Unit Blue. |

Thanks Fred. I always wondered what the PRU represented. |

Try to vary the color from a lite blue to different shades so the unit will not look all the same |
