This time though I experimented with darker tunic colours and the results were good. I recommend strong tone...it's an all rounder.Secundushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03315796155081335530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24362308.post-30846754972287070902010-03-30T17:02:12.013+01:002010-03-30T17:02:12.013+01:00Allan,

(Not tried it on Napoleonics yet, just AWI). I've formulated a theory that the Army Painter can look just as good on complex uniforms if you try and keep the number of different colours to a minimum and try and use as many of the same as possible for similar things (this does however compromise on historical accuracy but if you'll hardly notice on the gaming table!). I'm currently working on ECW and will post some pics of what I mean in the next few days.<br /><br />Hope that offers some advice whilst Secundus replies,<br /><br />Consul.Consulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13697053824770819630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24362308.post-485740875095620212010-03-30T16:26:21.007+01:002010-03-30T16:26:21.007+01:00Which Shade of Army painter dip did you use?

I'm not convinced with the dipping paintig because my works always remains very dark, but the result in yours is great! Do you apply mat varnish after dipping?
