I picked up a few of these guys in a trade a while back. good but (not great) figures. You did a fine job. Might I ask what you charge for this level of painting? Or is that bad form? The reason I ask is that I have been approached by people in the past to paint for them at my FLGS and wondered what a good price to charge would be. |

What color did you use for green portion of the camo? I like what you did with these and have some DDD US that I need to paint up in this style. |

For the colours, I used Vallejo acrylics: the uniform was Iraqi Sand with Cork Brown patches, and swirls of Earth, while the body armour was US Dark Green and the webbing with Canvas from the Panzer Aces series. Boots are Tan Yellow. I used brushed on Army Painter Soft Tone. For BigNickR: for this level of painting we charge 5€ per figure for simple uniforms. Complex uniforms, like camo patterns (as in this case)or napoleonic are 8€ per figure. This includes everything from cleaning, assembly (where needed), priming, painting, sealing and basing, though in this case the customer requested us not to base the models. We also generally give advice on colours and uniformology, as we have a fairly substantial library on the subject, but we are ready to follow the customer desiderata if he so prefers. |
