My British Paras test figure

[Truscott Trotter]

Yup I like em
I too have gone for a lighter base colour but have been prevaricating over the camo colours and format for ages
Problem is at that scale the colours recommended do not look right on my test figures - I like the VJ flat brown and the reflective green as they pop better on the middlestone base.
I also found doing the Denison handpainted stripes made it look messy and blurred from any further away then 6" - especially with my mediocre brush skills,
So inspired by your work (the amount of washing and glazing is a bit beyond me too but I do use AP dips/washes) I am going to simplify the camo and use Flat Brown etc.
Cheers and thanks for sharing ands the tutorials

Thanks for the kind words. You could go bright on the smocks, put the camo over the top and then add a watered down/glaze coat of something like German Camo beige over the top which would help subdue the camo colours a bit and blend them in a little more. Plus its definately easier
