From bag to base - Painting Pendraken 10mm ACW

[Tobbe]

I made a simple video on how I paint 10 mils.

The regiment is 8th New York State Militia "Washington Grays"

I hope you find some of it interesting.

Excellent!

How good was that! Keep that going; it's looking fantastic. As I've said before, if I hadn't got into 15mm ACW about 20 0dd years ago I would certainly be going down the 10mm route.

Nice one

[chalkie]

[Techno]

And it played without loads of pixels jumping all over the place...HUZZAH !!

Never too late to change!

Saving my 10mm self for WWI and C19th Europe.

This is so good it ought to be a "sticky" so that we don't lose it. 

[Techno]

I'll second that.
Great idea.
Cheers - Phil.

Thanks for the kind words


As a sausage-fingered, rheumy-eyed, shaky-handed 50 year old, I had to find out a few techniques, over the past months, that enabled me to end up with  decent results in 10mm.
In sharing them I'm hoping that others might find a new trick or two.

Aha !!....Just a young whipper-snapper then !
You deserve the praise Tobbe......Look better than 'decent' to me 'youth'.

*grins* The white primer and black pre-wash thechnique does demand crisply sculpted figures with good detail to pick out. Look at how well it works with the new "rifle on the right shoulder" figs
