It is more of an optical illusion. I use an airbrush to lay down most of the colors. For the Americans it meant that I used an airbrush to put the brown of the pants on first, and then followed that with the tan. Using my fingernail as a mask, I kept most of the overspray off of the brown when the tan was going on. I followed that up with a heavy wash from Secret Weapon Miniatures. I used Storm Cloud on the Germans, and Dark Sepia on the Americans. The SWM washes go on really well, so there is little pooling. I needed that so it would minimize cleanup afterwards. I still have to add highlights to the flesh, but that will come later after these guys have enjoyed a few games. Basically I plan out the painting process entirely at the start. I then batch paint.John Stieninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01860350974000948346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2896607568583881271.post-31577726499249990552016-01-19T01:59:56.958-07:002016-01-19T01:59:56.958-07:00Same comment and praise as Steven.
