I am not a fan of painting, however I do enjoy painting my vehicles. This is because I have a simple and easy, yet effective camouflage scheme.
It is an easy three-step drybrushing process. I attempted to follow a White Dwarf painting tutorial and failed abysmally. The end result looked nothing like it was supposed to, but I love it.
What you will need:
- Large Drybrush
- Scorched Brown, Graveyard Earth and Kommando Khaki paints
- Chaos Black, Catachan Green and Rotting Flesh Paints
- Some kind of vehicle
Stage 1: Heavily drybrush a rough patterns with Scorched Brown. Then heavily drybrush the remaining sections with a 4:1 mix of Catachan Green and Chaos Black. It is important to try and leave a thin layer of black between the brown and the green.
Stage 2: Moderately drybrush the brown with Graveyard Earth and the green with Catachan Green. Again, try to avoid the black between the green and brown sections. By varying the heaviness of this layer will greatly impact upon the end result of the scheme.
Stage 3: Lightly drybrush the brown with Kommando Khaki and the Green with Rotting Flesh. It is really important that this stage is done very lightly, it must only be a dusting of colour, or else it will become too bright, which I feel unbalances the camouflage.
The reason why I have made this tutorial is that I want to show people how easy it can be to create an effective camouflage scheme without any specialist tools, such as airbrushes and such.
