Bob Finally does Silver Bayonet
Too the painting table! Part 2 how it works.
With the base sjadi g on the White it is now just a case of block painting the various colours on. Here I show it on some British Flank Company by Victix.
Starting with Speedpaint Pallid bone, on Forage bags and odd figures overalls.
Then its the Scarlet Jackets, using GW gryph hound Orange, you will be supriseed how little there is when you avoid the lace and cross belts.
Then its the bed roll on the pack, usi g speedpaints Gravelord grey and Skakos, backpacks, ammo pouchs, bayonet scabbard in Speedpaint Grim Black
Here is were the initial grey shading really helps in defininig the white crossbelts.
Next its the stocks of Muskets, and the strap on the Water bottle in Speedpaint Satchel Brown. Quickly followed by Speed Paint Forest Sprite for the plums as Im doing them as Lt.Company. then Speedpaint Carrabean , the later is lighter tban tbe the satchel broen so it doesnt mattef if you go over it.
Now its time for metal work, Speedpaints enchanted Steel for the Musket Barrels , and Army Painter Shinning Silver for Shako/chest plate, the cbain for the musjet cleaner, buttins and metak work on musket . Much will get a coat of Zealot Yellow at end.
The Final bit of block painting is to do the faces and hands in Army Painter Peachy flesh. This combined with the earlier grey wash should mean for general tabke top stsndard , these areas will be nicely shaded .I of course make it difficult and paint eyes!
