Stockings.

[centurion]

Hi all,

I am about to paint Andrea's saucy Black Doggie figurine: http://www.historexagents.com/shop/hxproductdetail.php?ProductCode=PINUP01
I was wondering if some kind person could help me regarding the painting of her stockings. What colour would be best suited for the stockings? I think I saw a thread on the forum about painting ladies tights - but can't seem to
find it. Anyway, enough of my ramblings - any help would be very much appreciated.

-------------
Information:
(1) I use Andrea acrylic paints when painting figurines along with Winsor & Newton oils.
(2) I have a Iwata micron airbrush. I mentioned the airbrush in case someone suggests using an airbrush.

Kind regards.

I have absolutely no idea how to paint them but the research is going to be fun.

There was a post on Scale Model World covering this some months back.

I don't have an airbrush (I know shock horror), but I think you could paint the legs per normal and then mist on black or black grey or black brown until to get the desired effect.

Sorry, it seems that I couldnt link directly.
Click the "Archive" and choose "2003". Many useful articles will pop up with one in perticular clalled "Painting Stockings".

Or you could use the internet for "research".
