Looking good Russ. Where do you get your rocks for the bases? |

Sorry for the delay in replying, thanks guys it's much appreciate. Rocco, I use a lot of different paints but the green uniforms are mainly reflective green from vallejo mixed with a yellow to highlight. The light browns are vallejo khaki highlighted with beige.
TIG the rocks are just fish tank gravel, some of the larger ones are stones from bags of garden gravel/stones. Slate chippings are a great way of representing rocks. Hope that helps TIG
Prince Albert's revenge, crack on with them! I reckon they will look great once they are done.
Choctaw thank you, I think they painted up rather nicely.
Greylegion I can't take all the credit they are stunning little sculpts.
Thanks for the comments guys they are warmly recieved.
Cheers for now Russ |

Hey man, you deserve to treat yourself to a pint of either Pannepot or Delirium Tremens after typing all that out. I guess I was sorta freaked out by how you eschewed single paint triads in favor of mixing, but all the more power to you. The color schemes look fookin' fantastic because of it. |

Rocco Siffredi your more then welcome I'm always willing to help if I can. I do mix paints if needed but I'm a bit of paint hoarder so I've got loads of different makes of paints so finding colours that work without mixing helps make the process so much easier. Although vallejo are my first go to paints, especially for WW2 onwards. |
