I've gone through most of the posts here and I've done a search on Google. Does anyone have a painting guide using Vallajo paints. I will be painting 28mm figures.
Thanks in advance,
Jim Ferich

No sure you need a painting guide.

There is a Vallejo color in their Panzer Ace range that is called USMC green, use Stone grey or canvas for all the rest, use Army painter Soft tone wash on them. Helmets, there is a guide on wwpd.net or Warlord if I remember well.

mostly done.

The Farnsworth guide is excellent, l used it and was very pleased with the results on my Warlord plastic Marines.

Where on the North Star site can I find the Marines painting guide? I went over the listings twice to no avail.
