I'm thinking the basecoat + Devlan Mud method. I can always go back and fix them later.

If you want quick then army painter leather brown under coat, paint the clothes and weapons and then do the army painter dip.

Real quick 4 units

it's how I plan to do 300 zulus   :o
We can  discuss the scenario tonight at the club.


Cheers

Crikey, sir. I'm looking forward to today. Up diddly up, down diddly
down, whoops, poop, twiddly dee - decent scrap with the fiendish Red
Baron - bit of a jolly old crash landing behind enemy lines - capture,
torture, escape, and then back home in time for tea and medals.

Bonjour mes amis... It's been quite a while since I updated this thread. I should have posted my Foriegn Legion on here but I forgot to do it!

Instead I have something better. Something I've been working on for the past few weeks. It is made from the hull of a 1:48 scale Tiger tank that I picked up for $5 and a toy locomotive that I found at a local "Chinese Shop" for $4. Add a few bits from mu bits box and some naval armament fro Eureka and Voila :o

Below is a link to my blog. It's the place where I write uninteresting things about little toy soldiers. I do this because I refuse to grow up and behave like an adult.

A very nice piece of steamtech to give your army a bit of a punch. Love the name too (my wife's favourite historical military commander).

A cracking model, Melnibonean: imposing and effective.  But if it's in French service, shouldn't the name plaque read "Maréchal Ney"?
