A Fixture
i have basecoated this guard officer.
Made a mold of my original hat and used greenstuff and magic sculpt to cast a copy of it.
For the coat i decided to use a midtone , that color will give me a good range to go darker or lighter on the coat.
Many sources show a very dark blue, others show a blue close to a Royal blue, which in fact,the uniform color was tought to be Bleu du Roi.
for the mix i have used citadel Necron Abyss and a dab of andrea navy blue.
for the lapels i've use a mix of Panzer Aces german winter camo white and a dab of neutral grey.
for the vest and pant i've use deck tan (as usual) , for the gaiters a mizx of silver gray and a dab of white,finally for the sword belt i used white with game color Vallejo Bonewhite.
As for the collar and trimming i've use citadel Mephiston Red.
Best regards
