  My Persians are taking on Michael Stonyer’s Romans at the Hutt club on the 13th. I of course maintain that Darius’s troops are the prettiest

    Gavin Pearson Mike texted:

    “A base of Vallejo Black Green 70.980 mixed with a little black.

    “Next layer, black green mixed with deep green 70.970 leaving creases and obvious recesses, blending outwardly with that one.

    “Then pure deep green as a layer high light 

    “Then pure deep green mixed into German Camo bright green 70.833 thinning it down a fair bit

    Once I’ve got that far I look at the individual miniature and brighten the highlights to match your eye

    “In this case the footsore horse  had excellent wrinkles which in my mind just call out for a little extra attention.

    “Again in that last highlight I simply added a few more drops of German Camo bright green into the mix to brighten it up a bit.

    “Although it sounds like a lot of work it very quick to do as you work to match your eye to create an effect

    Your not picking out tiny details.

    “I’ve sent you a photo to you without lighting that better shows what I’m trying to explain.

    “I hope that helps.”
