So time to start applying paint and try to get them done as fast as possible, so the idea was to paint them in batches of 10. There would be two main colours per batch and although the Celts were known for plaids and stripes as these were the unarmoured warriors initially they would be plain block colours.

I went for various green, brown/red and unbleached wool/linen tones from the Wargames Foundry range.

Flesh applied

So started with the flesh (Vallejo Sunny Skintone) followed by Army Painter Flash Wash. Then block painted linen and green for the main colours, this wash followed by a Army Painted Strong tone wash and quick highlight.

Block Colours applied

Wash Applied

Next up was to apply the odd tattoo, this was done with fine drafting pen and although not the greatest close up does pass the “two foot” test and gives an suitable effect. (Doh! it was at this stage noticed pooling of wash on one of the faces so had a do a quick retouch).
