A few fairly random bits to round off the weekend.
Confession time: I have one of these
How many of you fine people have something similar to record colour schemes and recipes for various things?
2. I started to put together some Grenadier Platoons with a mixture of the Flames of War metals and PSC plastic figures.
The PSC are much better, as my test squad shows quite effectively.
3. I've been tidying up some old
Miniatures with varnish and some new glazes I've formulated since they were painted.
Here's a teaser:
More later in the week. Assuming I survive the last run towards the two Paper 1s of the GCSE History and Film Studies exams, that is.
Mostly I avoid having to mix paints except in rare "one off" instances. As far as color schemes, I do have a few scattered notes for a few things that I planned to produce more of over time, such as terrain pieces, with paint straight out of the bottle rather than custom mixed. I'm not so organized to have all the info in a single place, much less a labeled notebook. But good for you!
ReplyDeleteI think it was Paul O'G who mentioned "while you have the colours out"
ReplyDeleteYes, I also have a book with colours written down. I read about it in an article by Phil Olley in Battlegames and I thought "that's so obvious, why didn't I think of it before!"
