More Texians for Don Nicco de la Malamute's Texas freedom fighters.

These are from Empress I believe.

amazing, Chris! what colour did you use on the coat of the second (from left) guy?

It started out as Inscribe Thalo Green Alex, but that's a pretty transparent colour so I dumped other stuff in it to give it some body.
Probably dark brown plaka or black for the base layer and small amounts of white for the other layers, probably four, I got carried away. ;)

Painted these a few weeks ago so can't really remember now. ::)

Cheers lads 8)

That's the stuff Alex, Me and Captain Blood use it a lot.

Keep it under your hat, if everybody starts using it the price may rise ;)

Thanks, Malamute.
I saw these and wondered where they were from.
Have just ordered some.
Will be perfect as gentlemen explorers in Atlantis.
