Nicely done mate. Enough detail without going mad. |

Nice…I would use a light grey block color for waistcoat and breeches…then highlight with white. It is very simple and makes the figures "pop" alot more. |

Yes, great start and nice idea using the golf tees! |

Nice work! I like the wash over white primer idea. I've just started in 15mm after moving down from 28mm and I find it hard to see the detail to begin with so I will try this. |

I'm even thinking of applying two coats of the black wash as a primer. It really brings out all the details and allows for depth when the painting happens. I find a pure black primer is harder to see detail. |

I usually prime white (largely because I can't see the detail when I prime black), block paint slight lighter colours than I want in the final figure and then wash with Army Painter strong tone. I don't dip them but use a brush. It is fairly terrifying the first time you do it – as you brush awful black stuff over your hard work – but they come out pretty well. |

You'll have no trouble seeing the details if you follow a solid black undercoat up with a damp brush (or two) of white. It brings out the detail, provides a lighter surface where you need it for your paint, and leaves the inaccessible areas and depressions suitably dark. |

Those are great looking miniatures! Any general would be proud to lead them on the table. |

I now have a reason to buy one of those little games at Crackerbarrel ! |

First 15s, damn nice job. Now, are those figs a true 15mm or closer to the AB figs in size, if you don't mind me asking? |
