Spiffy! What make(s) are the vehicles?
top and bottom are new from Antenociti (and as such are not on the website as yet but were available at Salute so email Jed for release info) the one in the middle is a Fire Wasp from grey matter figures

Lovely work on those figures. That's the sort of camo that would work well in both verdant and arid conditions. Great "lived-in" look to their kit and I especially like the way you've done the goggles.

Any chance of a tutorial or two?

I'm not totally convinced on clear bases - they have obvious advantages when your playing in multiple terrains, but they look a bit too artificial to me in most pics. Maybe they look better at first-hand  :?

Worth thinking about for some of my stuff though  :)

Always - anything in particular? I did a tutorial on camo a while back and links to the posts on FOD can be found on my blog, somewhere. I'll go look. Goggles are simply painted Vallejo orange brown and highlighted by adding yellow ochre to the base colour leaving the darkest area in the centre (looks like eyes though the lens - hopefully) and then given a coat of Vallejo clear orange.
ah, found it...

Thanks! That's just what I was after - both camo and visor colours. I didn't realise you'd already posted the camo details on the FOD.

It's been far too long since I last visited  ::)
