Another Napoleonic set this time. A very nice set I must say. It comes with eight poses, one officer and seven troop figures. They are very nice sculpted and painted up very easy. A complete review of this set can be seen on Plastic Soldier Review.
As allways I started painting these figures with a white undercoat. Then I did the flesh parts with Games Workshop (GW) Elf Flesh and GW Ogryn Flesh Wash. Next was the uniform, here I used Revell (R) Sea Green. To tone down the green I gave it a wash with GW Gryphonne Sepia. The blanket is done with GW Vermin Brown. All black parts are done with R Tar Black and the red parts with GW Blood Red. The gun is painted with R Brown and GW Boltgun Metal with a GW Devlan Mud Wash over it. Buttons are painted with GW Shining Gold. The cocarde on the helmet is done GW Echanted Blue, GW Tin Blitz, GW Blood Red, R White and GW Shining Gold. I hope this will help someone who want to paint this figures to.
I did enough talking, I better show you the pictures.
I hope you like them!
