Like John, I tend to do black undercoat and brush the armour. other than that, I tend to follow your speed steps, although I think yours turned out better than mine do! But again, like John, I am attracted to undercoating in brown to save on footwear, shield backs and spears.

If you are pretty careful, you knock out shield backs, boots and spear shafts. That's a fair amount of detail that does not need to be painted.

I usually do a brown wash and then paint in shield backs, boots and spear shafts brown anyway, so it makes sense to do it all in one go with an undercoat!Prufrockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659918463589870423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386336651732048473.post-71512258383707616492015-04-29T21:49:19.813+09:002015-04-29T21:49:19.813+09:00Thanks Dean - not sure about great results, but th...Thanks Dean - not sure about great results, but they're good enough for me!Prufrockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659918463589870423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386336651732048473.post-6246751315411558392015-04-29T08:12:01.299+09:002015-04-29T08:12:01.299+09:00They look great Aaron!
