American Civil War, Part 6 - Here we are washing again

31 May 2022

The blackwash brings out the details on the figures and allows us to follow the bits that need painting, also this is the part where I like to get the bases green so we can get ready for the next stage of paint.

So with the basic blue, grey and light blues on the figures it's now to blackwashing and adding browns, blacks and greens in readiness for part 7 of the project.

Bases are done for these Union Artillery Limber and Gun bases ready for the next process


With the bases now looking better, we are over halfway in the process and still progressing well. Looking forward to ACW part 7 - The Artillery, we will be moving onto the final level of detail, tidy up, nut-brown wash and flocking and varnishing.
