8 out of the 12 Roman Legionaries are now painted and in the cabinet. I didn’t really enjoy them as much as I thought I was going to and I’m not entirely sure why. I was frustrated with skin colour and it is my first foray into transfers which are fine at a distance but not great up close.

Paints used

Primed – Green Stuff World brush on white

Chainmail – base coated in GW Abaddon black then drybrushed with AP Gun metal, wash Agrax Earthshade, highlight Gun metal

Shirt/tunic – AP Skeleton bone, wash Agrax Earthshade, highlight same as base

Leather trim, belts and slings – GW Mournfang Brown, wash Agrax Earthshade highlight same as base

Skin – Kislev flesh, wash Agrax Earthshade, highlight same as base

Helmet – base GW Yriel Yellow, coat of GW Gehenna’s Gold, wash Agrax Earthshade.

Plume – GW Abaddon black, wash Agrax Earthshade, highlight Celestra Grey

Shield – base Vallejo Cavalry Brown, coat of GW Mephiston Red. Edging GW Gehenna’s Gold and the backs are painted with GW Mournfang Brown

Bags – AP Desert Yellow, wash Agrax Earthshade.

Basing – Stirland mud, drybrushed with AP Desert Yellow and AP Skeleton Bone. Tufts are AP Swamp. Rim is GW Steel Legion Drab

looks well to me, what’s the issue with your transfers?
