good inspiration, the foundry figs do mix well with gringo40

Yes, but not all the Foundry, only the Mexican adventure range.
Thank you.

"Here is the 3rd company of the Régiment Etranger, leaded by the Captain Danjou"

This diorama was so inspiring I bought the Gringo 40s figures to try my hand at a version of the celebrated incident. Could I trouble you for information as to the actual colours you used for the uniforms?

Many thanks for any help / advice you can give.

For the trousers, I use a deep red (Vallejo flat red) and highlights (not sure of the word... ) in orange, then a red ink.
The jacket is based in black and highlighted in grey-black + black ink.

Thank you for your comments.
