As much as anything, this is finding a scheme that will be relatively quick to paint as figuring out the best colours to use :)<br /><br />@ Norm - I definitely ended up taking much longer on each batch of Australians through my accidental decision to go with several layers of highlighting for pretty much every element. I want to avoid that this time, while still having a good result. It doesn't help having a camo pattern in the mix :)<br /><br />@ Dave Stone - cheers! I'm slowly, but steadily working my way back towards a variant on the Farnworth guide it seems! :)<br /><br />@ Nick - thanks! I might have made some of the brown/green patches a bit too big, which I'll need to be careful to avoid in future. I think the green might be a little bit too dark. It's the green webbing that's being a little awkward to find the ideal colour right now though :)TamsinPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11759947520907448060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6908829430234339181.post-67639076305141888342019-09-07T20:29:12.399+01:002019-09-07T20:29:12.399+01:00To me those Denisons look spot on.

It strikes me that after a wash (unless mine is too rich) some highlights of the original colours need to go back in, to enhance the shading and brighten the figure.Normhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05031444717952755557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6908829430234339181.post-62096609207335626862019-09-05T22:07:38.833+01:002019-09-05T22:07:38.833+01:00I am ssooo glad its not just me who struggles with...I am ssooo glad its not just me who struggles with getting the 'look' right on figures!<br />I am sure you are closing in on the look you want, and look forward to seeing the figures!Herkybirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14259986798117222889noreply@blogger.com
