The Soldiers of the Queen...

I'm starting to paint my 15mm Blue Moon Afghan/Sudan Campaign British Infantry for TMWWBK. Could anyone give me some advice on painting them?
What would be the best shade of Khaki to paint the basic uniforms, as I believe they were a lighter shade than WW2 khaki, and I plan to use either Humbrol or Valejelo paints then a wash of Army Painter dark shade. Any advice would be most appreciated.

Buy yourself a spray can of Halfords Khakhi.
You'll have the whole lot base coated in seconds.
The shade is a bit lighter and slightly less "green" (to my eye) than Vallejo English Uniform.
Looks fine for my purposes on my NWF 28s.

Army Painter Skeleton Bone Primer is excellent

Thanks chaps, Halford's it is then.

I use Humbrol No93, available as spray as well and sanctioned by Col Snook

Wow.  Those certainly look the part.  Great work, sir.
