Some Napoleonics of mine (1 Viewer)

Hi Scott. Yes you're correct - I used Humbrol. The colour is a mix from two tins. Brunswick Green (Gloss 3) - and I mix that with Black ( I used Coal Black - which is a Satin 85) - but you can use any black to darken it down really. I put a few drops of each colour on a pallet - and mix together until it looks right - then off I go. You don't need much black - so add very gradually - or you'll swamp it!

Thanks John. Will give that a go.

You are welcome chum - good luck with 'em - that mix usually covers nicely too. jb
