I am copying the unifom look of the US Marines in WW2 (kind of have an affinity with the USMC since I've been in for 16 years myself ;D ) Its a pretty easy paint job which is what I was looking for since I have to paint close to 150 of these guys.
-Camo Green Uniform
-Commando Kakki Helmet, Leggings and gear
-Black Boots (should be brown for the period, but I thought brown clashed too much with the base colors)
-Helmet follows the "duck" pattern of the day, graveyard bown, catch green and cammo green "dots"
-Flamer Troop; Has a dry brush of Chaos Black to mimic him being sooted up from using his weapon. (Not a great quality pic, I'm working on getting a better one)
I am trying two different washes, Tharaka Green and Orgyn Flesh, I am trying to see which one looks better.
The Chimera is the basic Catch Green airbrushed and chainmail drybrush.
-I do need to work on the flesh parts, I am currently using Tallarn Flesh and skull white drybrushing...but my eyes aren't what they were...I need to get a magnifying glasses set to see better.
Once I have this all hashed, I may be hitting them all with a dull coat.
Still no unit designation.
