What is a good single color to drybrush a completed Union 25mm soldier? Thanks. |

If you are going with a single color, I'd use a light beige, such as Unbleached titanium. |

What are you going for with the drybrushing?
Is it shading the dark blue or are trying to show grimy marching dirt ? |

All my figures, regardless of era or scale, get a very light drybrush of pale tan all over. Vallejo Iraqi Sand is as good as any other. Picks out the highlights. |

My goal is to bring out the highlights on the dark blue jackets and kepis as well as the black leather items. |

I've always used Dove Grey well watered down. |
