Great work Christopher. I love the base too. What brand are they? Artizan?

They look great and the bases are really good, is it Silflor's flowers you used?

Thank you

The bushes, tall grass and flowers
are a mix of Green Line, Mini Natur and Heki.

I may be showing my age and not understanding text speak, but what does 'AP' stand for?

AP is short for army painter and happy you asked as I miss a lot of the abbreviations myself on other things and so I'm in the getting old category myself.

I used army painter with several highlights added is what I should have said.

Wow! I've never used it, but your models are a cracking advert for it.

Thank you,

but remember army painter alone won't get the same effect as you need to add highlights, but no doubt speeds up painting which is fun for a change and something I find myself doing more often these days.

Great work there - the shading and bases are fantastic.

Love Artizan stuff and you've made them look even better.

love your AP way of painting... how long did it take to paint those?

Axebreaker · « **Reply #13 on:** April 15, 2011, 08:32:32 PM »

Thank you folks.

Taking into account I take very frequent breaks I estimate roughly 1 1/2 hours per figure from start (cleaning)to finish(protective coat). So, not exactly lighting quick, but for sure faster then my other methods.
