WW2 15mm Russians aren't my force but I'm painting some as a gift for the approaching holiday. To speed up the process I bought Plastic Soldier's Russian Uniform spray. Its much greener than I expected, and now that they've got a nice base coat I have no idea what to highlight with to complement this color. Before I used Khaki gray with a highlight of regular khaki and then a nice wash, but as those are more brown based neither looks like it would work. Looking for some Vallejo suggestions. I have Russian green, olive grey, green grey, US dark green, brown violet, flat green, and a host of other colors available. |

Sorry, I don't know the answer, but I just hate to see someone post and get absolutely no reply. It's happened to me a few times, and it's just like you're P*****g into the wind. So someone did hear you, and read your post.
As to colours, it's difficult to tell without seeing the PSC base colour. I've dry brushed Russian vehicles with Vallejo 884 Stone Grey in the past. I gives them a nice, dusty or washed out effect. |

You can just take the base color, and mix that with a bit of white, for a highlighting color, when drybrushing. |
