My collection is slowly growing so I figured its time to share, I'm not sure if Empress know exactly what they have started

Thats my collection so far, they are fantastic little sculpts and paint up beautifully!

Thanks guys its much appreciated, they are a joy to paint

The base colour is vallejo US dark green washed with army painter dark tone. One dry reinstate the US dark green, high light with Russian uniform green ww2 from vallejo. Then its just a case of painting in the black stripes and careful high lighting with dark grey. Then a steady hand and small brush using pastol green from vallejo to add the lighter coloured stripes. Hope that helps

Thanks again for the comments and feedback guys 😊

Thanks guys, I'm adding a few bits of scenery to my collection. Let's see if I can transform the big bag of aquarium plants into some sort of jungle

Very nice work. I am certainly going to have a look at that Tiger Stripe scheme.

Thanks gus, I'm pottering around with a few bits of scenery at the minute and my first squad of VC! I stalled on the VC but I think I may have it cracked this time.
