Fifty shades of Butternut

More Rebs come out of the woods.


Now I'm a few bases in, I've started to include casualties into the line up. This just helps make the bases more dramatic and break up the battleline.
WARNING: try not to stroke your cat while using the Dip. Those hairs will find their way on to your wet figures for sure. Lesson learnt.


It's great fun to mix up random colours by adding stronger browns to the Butternut. 
I'm also having fun painting up the raw leather of the Confederates. It's strange, but this little fact can help to power me through the painting of the bases, with loads of bases to do you have to find the perks where you can.

 The casualties are both from 1st Corps miniatures.

Nice work - a few casualties always help ad some variety and interest!
