Thanks for posting! Very helpful

Why do Canadians need their own instructions for painting infantry? I figure they could use the same techniques as the rest of the free world. Oh, maybe the video is half English, half French?

Hey Doubleones, they aren't instructions specifically for Canadians, eh? The majority of my viewers are from the US, followed by the UK. Maybe you should actually watch the video, it's all in English. You might learn something.

Thanks, Ryan. Always great to see another's techniques in painting. C'est bon!

@doubleones

Why do Canadians need their own instructions for painting infantry ?

For starters its a different colour from all others that wore British battledress , if you watch the video you'll find that out .

An outstanding video! Thank you very much.

That was truly fantastic. Loved the use of swatches grabbed from actual uniform images. There was one photo especially, of a rack of uniforms in what I assume was a museum vault, that tracks with any group of actual uniforms I've ever seen, showing multiple shades of colour, some so different you'd think they originated as different shades. I've seen racks of scores of Canadian SWW uniforms like that, and no two exactly the same. Really excellent video and tutorial. Thanks, and congrats.
