So I have been collecting the Regiments of Renown since they came out and have nearly a complete set, I think the only one I am now missing is Karnac's Champion. So thought I should start to paint them, oldest first.
So one Old Regiments of renown box

Add the dreaded metal oxidisation. So what to do.

Well I had better paint them while they are still there so cleaning first

After a few minutes. Probably should have wore a mask though.

I will undercoat them , paint them and seal with varnish and see how they last.
