Gaz's Spring Clean Hobby Challenge 2020
A quick colour test for 1940 Germans in Bolt Action.
So Bolt Action is very popular in my gaming community and I figured it was time I joined in. Ordered some Germans for a 1940 list including the rarely seen in BA Panzer I hehe.
Wanted to throw some paint at a mini and see how it came out today. Very pleased with the look and now waiting for confirmation of what’s right and wrong colour wise from a friend of mine who does re-enactment and has a lot of literature on the subject.
Colours used for the test.
White on Black Citadel Spray
Grey
Basilicanum Grey (C) on the grey areas
Eshin Grey (L)
Dawnstone (L)
Black
Templar Black (C)
Eshin Grey (L) highlight
Skin
Wraithbone (B)
Guilliman Flesh (C)
Kislev Flesh (L) highlight
Kislev Flesh (L) 75:25 Wraithbone (B) highlight
Eyes
Pallid Wych Flesh (L)
Nuln Oil (S) for the pupil
So apparently the Jacket needs more green in it for the time period. He sent me a pic of his jacket showing this. Gonna try some of the green shades on the mini to see how it goes.
