[Foundry Paints] Horses !?

[Byblos]

Hi folk !

First , be cool with my "not so perfect" english language 

Second : for those who used to paint with "Foundry 3 colors system" (TM  ) :

Wich colors you choose for horses !?

And moreover : wich shades of brown , or grey !?

Later i will ask for British WW1 uniforms ... (Brits in the East)

Foundry have specific horse triads. I like the "Bay Brown", but the Chesnut seems a bit too yellow for my taste. I use mainly Vallejo paints, so I can't be of much help aside from that.

For WW1 Brits you need to look at Mark Hargreaves' site here: http://over-open-sights.blogspot.com/ . He offers free painting guides, but he uses a mix of Foundry, Vallejo, and Coat d'Arms paints.

Best of luck.

At one time or another I have used each of the following triads on 28mm horses:

06-Dusky Flesh
07-Buff
11-Rawhide
14-Tan
42-Bay Brown
53-Chestnut
54-Conker Brown
57-Stone

Sample horse in 11-Rawhide:


Sample horses:  left = 54 Conker Brown; right = 07-Buff
