GHQ olive drab and velajo Brown violet - white added to shade lighter are good choices, then hit with citadel flesh wash to pop out the detail and BAM!!!! instant war torn sherman all 15 variants of them.

Hehe, and i was just gonna grab some Krylon green, spray em, and post em in "Show us your stuff!" asking for constructive criticism!

Thanks though, never thought about using the citadel washes on my micro armor...gonna have to try that on some of my T-80 horde and see how it works!

Tim, out!

Dr. Big

I have heard that from a local in my part of the woods as well to add some yellow to OD for the shermans. I just might give that a try on my next batch of shermans. Thanks for the tip.

When I'm using Shermans it seems that the best colour to use is a soot-black, especially heavy around the engine and fuel tank areas.....

"Ronsons" just aren't what they used to be...
I looked at mine the other day- "made in china".
No wonder it doesn't light "first time, every time"... :wink:
