Hat 8191 Zulus

Someone said some time ago that I was lazy. You don't believe me? You can read it here! And it isn't true! I'm not lazy, just a bit slower! :-D

These Zulus were a real fun to paint. Not to many details and well sculpted. A complete review of this set can be read here.

Enjoy the pictures!













I hope you like them!

The colors I've used (Revell = R; Games Workshop = GW)
- GW54 Skull White
- GW18 Dark Flesh
- GW Badab Black Wash
- R06 Tar Black
- GW92 Kommando Khaki
- R85 Brown
- GW14 Snakebite Leather
- R87 Earth Brown
- GW62 Burnished Gold
- GW57 Boltgun Metal
- GW Devlan Mud Wash

Welcome to my blog!!!!!

    Slow?! I would gladly give a left arm (someone else's left arm, preferably a "terrible person") to paint at half your speed.

    These are great. I keep being impressed by Zvezda's stuff, and you've done the figures justice.

    Beautiful painting !
    flesh colour is perfect!

    (Paul don't understand that there are 2 kinds of painters: the quick painters and the slow painters! There's no place for lazy painters, it's impossible!)

    These are really neat pieces and you've done a marvelous job of painting them. You've got those subtle changes in skin tone just right and the faces are perfect. There's no one in the world slower than me. One day I'll admit to just how long it takes me to do one piece.

      Thanks Anne! The skin tones are the dark flesh with the black wash (2X). You're maybe slow, but the figures you show to us are awesome!
