Thanks gamer Mac.
Sorry for my english but i will try to explain how i work...
- First step : Black spray.
- Second step : white spray zenithal painting.
- Third step : with an aerograph layer with base, paint from Prince August 116 Israeli Army
- 4th step : lightening (?) with an aerograph, paint from Prince August 115 Desert camo. Decals.
- 5th step : wash with Vallejo Wash Dark brown in recesses (or hollows ?).
- 6th step : paintbrush for lightenings, then finishes with damages, dust (with pigments Terre de Sienne).

Thanks

You understood that?

“Zenithal”, “Aerograph”……?  The man talks in riddles! Lol

However, they do look spankingly good!

Zenithal - means a spray of white paint from above and a slight angle, to give a highlight layer, leaving the black in the shadows. I’m sure there are videos out there that explain it much better

Aerograph - on the other hand??

An aerograph is an old-fashioned name for an airbrush.

What an excellent looking bunch of buccaneering rouges! Maybe a black wash to tone down the gunmetal on the weaponry a tad?
