Eyes, muzzle and hooves

With some extra time tonight, I’ve pushed on to the finer details of the two previous horses. The eyes are simply Vallejo German Camo Brown, with a GW Brown Ink wash.

The muzzle was black ink, thinned well. I applied it very lightly just allowing it to build up colour and tint the nose and lips.

The hooves were somewhat of an experiment. The started as black, then received GW Fortress Grey in very thin vertical stripes. Not happy with that, I went over with thinned German Camo Brown. Then thin stripes in Vallejo Khaki. The lighter of the two horses also got some stripes of GW Bleached Bone

Please note: Hooves are a pain to paint...

Thanks for taking the time to go through the detail of the experimentation process. I’ve certainly found it to be tricky in the past, and have sometimes ended up buying a few duplicates of a single miniature to try a few things out on, before trying to replicate a scheme or method across a force.
