You've done a great job Andrew! I love them and, Nap, there's a lot of Brenner going on here lately.

I'm pleased you liked them Hans.

Cheers,
Andrew

Thank you very much for your kind comment Pavol.
I had bought this set intending to spend a good few months painting them.
However, your sculpting was so good that I couldn't help but work on two or three at any one time.
Anyway, the intended 'good few months' was quickly reduced to three.
Thanks again for providing me with so much enjoyment.

Cheers,
Andrew

Nice job! Britt's shirt - what color is this?

Thank you for your kind comment Marcin.

I can’t remember the exact mix used, but the base for the mix was Humbrol #120 (Light Green). I’m pretty sure I added Humbrol #147 (Light Grey) to lighten and fade the colour.
As with all the busts in this set, I tended to finally wash with an oil sepia and gently wiped down with a natural sponge. This allowed me to bring out the highlights and enhance staining (by dabbing back with the sponge) where I thought it was required.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Andrew

Hi, Andrew.
Light green... interesting. Some kind of khaki, I see. Although I use only acrylics, I have this colors in my rack, so I can try this at once. I can also find some sepia shade.
