Title: My First VSF Figures Painted
Post by: huntersmoon on October 13, 2020, 12:34:31 PM
My first VSF / In Her Majesty’s Name figures painted.

Based the colour scheme on the 95th Rifles as my father served in the Durham Light Infantry and I wanted to reflect a light infantry themed regiment of the appropriate era

I've another 6 more to do, these were a colour trial, but I like the results.

Colours used if anyone's interested

Primer GW Seer Grey

Technique

Note: I've not had much success with a wet palette, used a lot less water and it worked so much better. Using the Army Painter wet palette

Good paint work on great looking figures, especially like the Armoured guy with weird rifle, what brand are they?

Very nice painting.   
I avoid close ups when photographing my figures.  :D

Very well done!

But, with breastplates wouldn't they be classed as heavy infantry?
