Title: GZG 18mm Mercs
Post by: zrunelord on July 09, 2022, 01:13:12 PM

Hello again all,
The latest Merc by GZG.
These minis scream " Commandos ", though they would also play the part of British Paras easily ( though you would have to model chutes etc ).

Another great set by GZG, full of character.
Mechs are free 3D printed Cyclops by Dutch Mogul.

Thanks for your comments.

 Nice job mate, I’ve used those 3D printed mechs myself but for 28mm

Those look great!

I wish my washes would come out as great as the wash on those did.

Thanks Gunner,
Those came out nice also.


& Thanks WM.
Just use a light base or undercoat (white or buff ) & use the ink wash recipe I had written AND THEY WILL come out great.

Here it is again..
Liquitex concentrate colour OR  grout concentrated colour OR Windsor & Newton inks.
Few drops flow improver ( or water + dish washing soap )
Matt medium ( depends on how much you want the finish matt )
Limestone acrylic sealer ( this will be the main medium ).

I absolutely like mixing my own colours ( the main problem is to replicate them exactly  :( :( :( )
