Operation “Get Cracking!” pt 5

Dear Diary,
this weekend has been a real blast… I set out knowing I was going to succeed.. but the realities of all this painting work has just blown my mind.

Yup the “wonder wash” lived up to it’s reputation.
However I must make a note that if i am to use it again I shall use a tone lighter than the required. Because it can make thinks a little darker than expected.

Anyways… I did a brown was.. followed by a black wash.. which I used Vellajo paint with not Tamiya black. Because it makes that awful watermark thing… but the floor polish does go a long way to remove that problem when mixed 50/50 with the water.

Anyways the final layer was some pink wash on the faces and hands.. over did it on some but most look remarkably better with some flushed tone.

So here is some pics.. any ways..

Here is a shot of the whole lot. This is one full platoon. But i have made two platoon command stands. Which lets me make two 3/4 size platoons or enough command to drop an air mission.
