Lovely brushwork on the British and Zulus. Can I please ask what colour you went for on the shirtsleeves for the British ?

Thank you.

Best regards,

Helen

Hi Helen thanks for the kind remarks !! Yes of course you can have the shirt painting recipe. I used Foundry triad Col 75 British blue grey A,B,and C. I added white to C in various stages for the blending and highlighting. Hope that helps !!

Tidy! Love the grey. I see a lot of people go way too blue with it, especially with their Great War figures. If you look at the real ones, there's barely any blue in there at all, even though people always describe them as blue-grey.

I blame that pesky Osprey colour plate of the South African in East Africa, who is wearing an entirely different and very blue shirt.  :)
