While doing my Perry conversions of French Revolutionary cuirassiers I couldn't resist to paint a few Prussians, to test the colours – how they come out, here regiment

Those are Black Hussar fantastic 28 mm miniatures a pure joy to paint

Very nice! Looks like you work from a white primer base? |

Thanks for the feed back "Very nice! Looks like you work from a white primer base?" Yes and no, I prime white using Citadel skull white spray, then I use a glaze of a dark violet (acrylic artist colours with Vallejo matt medium), which will enhance the details and stay in the deep folds. Over that I then paint a base colour – usually in a very light hue but let stay the dark glaze for the deep folds.
Then, over that another galze of water colours (dark hue) and then I take off with a wet brush the paint where the highlights should be. It doesn't work for all clours but works well for black, grey, blue, green, brown. |
