I'll be posting a tutorial on painting camouflage sometime soon (as soon as I finish the basic figure tutorial), so keep an eye out for it, you'd probably find it helpful. Wink [;)]

For every modeling technique that works, I have three that don't.

Ye, theres alot less of the base colour showing. I use 5 different colours for my Autumn colour SS uniforms and took me ages of trial and error before i was happy with what i had.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

I used Vallejo Game Colour for the basecoat. the name has teared of, but it should be some earth colour..

It could be the glare from the light, but the base colour looks a bit bright, what colours have you used. This is 3 of my SS figures from my Tiger II dio.

So this figure is one of 3 I'm painting from Dragons Hohenstaufen figure set. Now I know that the camoflague isn't good. But I wondered, is it "acceptable"?

 

 Thanks.
