Portuguese uniform colour
« on: August 28, 2016, 09:37:10 AM »
A bit of help needed chaps. I've got some Peninsula war Portuguese to paint and being slightly colour blind I'd like to know what would be the best colour for the cazadore uniform. Foundry paints preferably  :)

cheers

Hi, can't help with Foundry colours but have seen suggested, and will be using myself, Vallejo Model Color 70.872 Chocolate Brown.

Tony.

I'm about to start these myself, and am proposing to use the Foundry Bay Brown triad.

That's interesting as I thought the Cazadore uniform had a touch more green in it?

There is no real Brown  color for the caçadores.
The uniform was made by burel and saragoca material and that was made by hand so it means one was médium Brown and the next batch could be darker or lighter.
Neverteless what i find close is the Bestial Brown from GW.
Here are some photos that might help.
pm me if you need more info.

I like Vallejo chocolate brown as a base and flat brown highlights.
