This project is as much to remind me how I did it as anything. So Having built My 1st batch of figures. I put some textured paint to start the bases, in this case Vallejo Desert Sand, though as I spray undercoat them afterwards the colour isn’t that important.

For those who have never used it Figure for size of bottle.

Now I had planned to use GW Corax white spray can for undercoated, but seems its been discontinued, so reverted to a wilco white primer, which at least saves me £5 and goes on ok.

I never do masses of figures in a mass production line, as do many as that to me makes painting too much of a chore, so picked out one officer and 4 musketeers to start with the six figure, was on the table as I was fixing his arm, and what the hell.

To start with I used GW Skeleton Bone, in two levels of thinning out for the leather cotton armour and some if the leggings.
