Being a modeller for quite a few years now, I decided to explore the endless possibilities that the world (through internet) offers, and come up with a series of ways of building, modelling and painting fast (but not hastily), to create the worlds I was seeing in history books since I was little. . .If you care to join me. . . This is the place to be! And, I promise you to find the way (or ways)!!

Pegasus Waffen SS - Set 2

Hi everyone.
Most of us that play with little plastic figures, know Pegasus’ Waffen SS - Set 2 kit.
It was a unique (for the time it was released) kit, since it combined new methods of casting, that provided excellent 3d figures.
In this instance, I used two identical prone figures, which I painted in the same manner, but used different style of bases (one with dirt and one ‘urban’).
What’s different from other painting methods I did in the past, is that in this instance as in my previous work (last post), I used washes (through successive layers of colours) instead of Wood-Varnish Stain - Dip I was using.















I hope you like them.
Have a good Wednesday night everyone!
T.

      Thanks Fran. I wanted to make the bases good..I wanted the snipers to blend in.

    Wow, great painting. Great use of identical figures to portray different locales. You the man, Mr. T!

    Great work T although I can't understand what you mean by successive washes. Maybe you should show me by painting a figure step by step. In the past you painted a figure and then dipped it, the gloss was then toned back to matt with a matt cote correct?

      Yep! That was the previous painting method. I now, use successive layers of the colours, starting from dark to light, with the intervention of washes. I'll post a tutorial soon Greg! Thank you for your kind words.

      They do look great Thomas, too bad this set is on the small side of the scale. I hope the new figs to be as big as the rest of their cousins from other manufacturers. Takk!:)
