Longbow Posted September 26, 2020 Author Share Posted September 26, 2020 Here you go Steve. This Miniart figure is in the raw. Not fully cleaned up yet. The head is Alpine with goggles added. Of course it’s not up to Alpine standards, but for secondary figures I think they will work well. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longbow Posted September 26, 2020 Author Share Posted September 26, 2020 Just now, Dads203 said: What paints are you using mate ? Everything is Vellejo. Airbrushed through a standard siphon feed Badger. I do tend to mix the paints, and this shade is Olive Drab, Camouflage Olive Green, Iraqi Sand, a drop of Chocolate brown, and Khaki and Ivory. I mix a standard dark base from the above colors, and then lighten with Khaki, Ivory, and Iraqi Sand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
