Happy belated birthday Steve!
50 heads to paint? That is a lot of practice. I've been using the flesh colors from Vallejo's Panzer Aces line for a while and am generally happy with the results. I did just pick up AK Interactive's flesh colours set though and am looking forward to giving them a go.

Re: Happy Birthday Steve!
Hi Matt,
Thanks and 50 is a lot, John Everett, told me to paint 12 heads and the 13th will be OK
So I just expanded it!
1st 3
and the remainder of the practise team
I have about the same again somewhere in the attic and 30 packs of Hornet heads too
Masochist or what!
I tried the Panzer Aces flesh set but it was too dark, I'm back with 876 Sand Brown as a base.
You'll have to let us know how the AK set works out.
Regards
Steve H

Re: Happy Birthday Steve!
Looks like you certainly have enough to practice on. I'm hoping to get to some painting this weekend, I'll report back my findings.

Re: Happy Birthday Steve!
Happy belated birthday Steve. That is an impressive collection of heads. I have AK, Ammo, Life color, and Vallejo paints. Vallejo paints by far work better for me.
I have so many different
I'm sure you have seen these but if not, these are about the best face painting videos I have seen.

Re: Happy Birthday Steve!
Thanks Shawn
Surprisingly I haven't caught the Ortiz You Tube videos!
I shall watch them later in my so busy schedule
It is a little harder to apply in 1:35 but seems to be a logical approach with a great finish too.
Looks well worth watching
Thanks Shawn
