Hey John! :) Thanks for dropping in. Yeah, i can't find find a background where these guys aren't blending in. I must be doing something right :lol: :lol:

Vincent :lol: :lol: :lol: That is very good, i should try that :P


Ok, some more figure progress. Just concentrating on the ghillie suits, and i think i am at that stage where i am very happy with ghillie and calling it effective enough and done. Just have to work on the uniform colouring now.

To the photos 8-)

First step was to pick out the biggest tassles in a light green, really highlighting them from the very dark green.

Next was some good old fashoined dry brushing with an intermediate green.

To paint the ghillie i used the following steps...

1. Initial overall colour of Vallejo Russian Green 70894
2. Oil was using Winsor & Newton Raw Umber
3. Largest tassles picked out with Vallejo Uniform Green 70922
4. Then to highlight the smaller tassles i dry brushed, quite heavily, with Valejo Intermediate Green 70981
5. Finally a dry brush (very dry) of the Intermediate Green overall, just to blend all the tassles together

These look really good in the flesh/plastic (if i may say so myself :roll: ) and i am really happy with the way they have turned out :D

Done a little more to this project, especially while the mojo is hanging about :)

Attached figures and started adding the Forest in a Pot ground litter...

Off to the docs to get a couple of warts removed, so this can sit for a bit and let the glue dry :P
