About the Project
I’ve found that with age also come my love for historical armies. It’s all Perry Miniatures box sets and some metal Perry Cannons and Character models. Looking to play some “Never mind the bill hooks”. Ok. Time to start!

Infantry
So I started out with Black ACE primer. It’s about $4.00 a can. And it covers nicely. Then I zenith shade them with Wraithbone. I love that Color. I’m doing a Yorkist army so I went with the Blue and White. I used the Vallejo blue triad paint set. Whit was Contrast White. Then I used contrast paints for all the browns. For any metal I use Contrast Black Templar Black and dry brush that. It’s a great technique for me with different models. After that they get a bath in Army Painter Strong Tone. Next I’ll base and flock with some static grass and grass tufts. Maybe some flowers also. It is “the war of the Roses!” Anyways. LOL… more pictures to come. Keep painting my friends.
Cannon number one
Getting this bad boy together. Using various contrast colors for the browns on the men. Building up the ground colors with some craft paints. Then I’ll add some static grass and tufts. The cannon was done by paint Black Templar contrast and then dry brushing over that. The texture on the base is GW snow mixed with Elmers Glue and a pinch of sand. More to come.
