Brigade games Austro Hungarians
« on: November 20, 2018, 01:57:23 PM »
Managed to blitz through these after getting a great deal from armchairgeneral.
Mostly painted in pike grey with a few in field grey so they would be around 1915/6

Really good stuff, like the uniform color. The pike gray is very well :o. Are you planning more ? Too bad that you can order the miniatures only in the United States.
Please show us more of it.

Cheers, I would like to do more but I cannot see that happening due to the expensive shipping (I also like their Japanese and Chinese ranges) the pike grey is a mix of Vallejo field blue and miniature paints (gamescraft ?) Blue grey.

Come on, there must be a company in the UK that would be willing to sell such fantastic figures ?

Very nice indeed.  The pike gray is hard to duplicate.  What is your secret   ? ( I've heard some folks use Luftwaffe Blue).

the pike grey is a mix of Vallejo field blue as a base then Vallejo field blue and miniature paints (gamescraft ?) Blue grey mixed as highlights.

Those turned out really nice. Not just that you managed to get a great uniform color, but the quality of the painting in general.
