Mil - Painting 60mm gunners
This article was published Jan 02, 2021.
First modelling session for 2021, and for the hole of the holidays actually. So far I have only put on first covering layers of Vallejo Royal Blue and black, plus started with first bright yellow. These figures, specially the Caroleans, have several different yellow shades. From very brownish yellow to clear yellow.
The blue and black was almost dabbed on in a lazy fashion, since they have no colours to compete with yet. Same with the draught horses, they will get many more layers before finished, so this was just first covering layer.
Difference between these and the previous in 40mm (1:40) scale I printed before is that these will be painted in the blue/yellow uniform, same as the infantry had which all gunners also got after 1710. Before that all gunners had gray uniforms with blue collars and cuffs.
