Aa50 Chinese infantry painting

It’s not perfect, but it has the same level of detail as a regular axis and allies piece considering it’s size. I’m not sure I will need help designing anymore. I figured it out for myself.[0_1603832941634_Type 59 (1).stl](Uploading 100%)

@Field-marshall said in Soviet Mountain Troops 1/72 - Ultima Ratio:

For starters just take a fine brush and apply a little wash in the bottom of any recessed areas to create the shadow effect. This is called “pin washing” and it is very effective at getting those details to pop out. You can make your own wash by taking a dark color paint and diluting it about 50/50.

Use dark dark brown on warm colors and black for cool colors for the wash?

Dry brushing is also almost like magic. First few times I did it, it wasn’t perfect but added a lot. After a few more tries,it just gets better.

I haven’t painted anything in years.

@Caesar:

That chart is nice but it doesn’t name the color, I guess I am best off just going into a model shop with an infantry and compare colors.

The vallejo color is middlestone.  To me I like to think of it as limabean green or pea green.

Hello! I saw that you may be interested in purchasing Axis and Allies minis. If you are interested, I literally own every set & every miniature that exists. Message me if you are interested. Everything I have collected of A&A has been kept in special protective cases, preserving everything in an absolute state of flawlessness. Message me if you have any questions as well. Thx!

Whether it be mini’s or game pieces or models, I salute you!!!

Coming from someone that has no talent or time or desire to paint these pieces, a big “thanks” to you all.

And thanks for posting these great pics.

Gots lots to post, but most all of it is in progress right now. Crewed-anti-tank gun dioramas, Soviet winter T-34s, scratchbuilt US super-SPGS (200mm & 240mm armed T-92 and such), and more planes. But they are all in the works, and I needed to post more often, so here is my German infantry mob. I’m not posting any of the DAK, as they are only in base color for my game. I only detailed my SS & panzergrenadiers, so here they are. About a dozen more Cavalry and 6 more foot soldiers, and my squad will be complete, but I couldnt wait. Here they are (1/72, 1/76, and a few oddball close scales):

Just enter FOW paint on a google search. I’m sure you will find a multitude of places come up.

Use a soft toothbrush and post your pictures when yo are done. :-)
