Things Photographed: PERRY UNION INFANTRY

 I'm getting some quite abysmal quality photo's of my work, I hope these do a better job of representing the colours used.

Unfortunately it wont improve the quality of the brushwork 😁

Things Painted: PERRY UNION INFANTRY and CONTRAST PAINT

 Hello my latest  installment of Citadels Contrast paint exploration. So many blue variations to choose from... and I don't even own the whole lot of them!

Pretty sure I narrowed it down to a suitable selection/combination, what do you think?

I have recorded my efforts on YouTube once again, so if your really bored you can watch me bumble my way through learning Contrast Paint





And here is my YouTube video finishing off those pesky blue bellies.

Things painted: PERRY CONFEDERATE INFANTRY and CONTRAST PAINT

 My small horde of marketplace Perry ACW have been crying out for some love from the Quartermaster aka me!

Well I decided to acquiesce to their, frankly, quite reasonable demands, but how can I paint so many by my lonesome to a reasonable standard with minimum expenditure of effort


Noooo, not red paint.... Contrast paint! I'm late to the party I know, however I am going the contrast paint route with my Perry rebels and it is going to be awesome (spoiler: they are), probably.

Now for the errr, good news? I have documented my experience with the paint le contrast on the youtube, this is so people I have yet to meet can mock and laugh at my lowly skills as a painter and video documenteur.


The first of my epic videos cover the applicacion of ze grey tones and can be viewed here


And the second even more epic video with all the rest of the stuff is 'ere eh

Hey thanks for having a look at my post... if you made it this far 👍
