Steppes by Steppes!

Hi all,

a step by step to paint horses ( and men on them also).
1-you'll need a aera well ventilated and a paint mask, otherwise you'll be a victim of your hobby (your sickness in wife's language).
2-some spray cans of the different browns, yellow, sand, black,white, greys (fifty is too much).
3-a good number of prepared mounted figures
4-two good arms to shake the cans    
 few pics to illustrate it:



5-a stop in thefrenchjester's bath later
6-hairdryed to gain time
7-then after a short stay at the paint station
(I have painted them with Vallejo and citadel acrylics, paints for aero from Spectralite, Golden and schmincke plus a large use of brown inks from Liquitex).
the result in pics:








hope you'll like them;
more to follow soon.......

That is brilliant, Gilles! Great work, my friend. I wondered if the Liquitex sprays were good and you showed me that it does.

Hi Monty,

be careful with their spray cans, they must be well shaked at least 2mn.
they are only useful to highlight a grey undercoat or a black one.
they are useless as a first undercoat.

I send to you a PM ( without a jeep ;-)).

All the best.
