Nooo worries maaan. (spoken with heavy Jamaica accent)

Seen the 'real dirt technique' many times in the German model magazine KIT.
If your not happy with the outcome you can still use washes and/or dry brushing,ofcourse the ground work has to be completely cured then.

Come to think of it,it might also work with pigments. :hmmm

Been sandbagging a little, struggling with figurepainting

2 guys almost done, the basic colours are there, now just some drybrushing and wheathering.

Really hate to paint all that equipment, and figure out what colour it shall have.....

As for the breadbag, look at this pic

Atleast it gives you a little freedom in how to paint!!

Glad someone is making progress

Added rope handles and finnished painting the ammoboxes, thought about doing markings on the top, but i found that they had it both with and without, and i didn't find any good decals either

Another angle of the commander

If you can see it, i changed the colour of the grenade, only found matching colour in my oil sortiment so we see how it will turn out...

Gonna start with these 2 guys now

Hope to have them done in the beginning of the week and then finnish the diorama before friday :idonno :coolio
