Title: Ryman's Argentine army project
Post by: Ryman on 29 September 2016, 09:58:49 PM
Go easy on me folks, it's been a few years since I painted 10mm and I'm definitely rusty. Thought I'd share the beginning of my project anyway.

Very effective basing and nice map :-bd

Do you use washes to bring out the figure details?

I'm assuming ImageShack is similar to Photobucket

I've taken the liberty of posting the image full size, as you can see, too nice not to be seen in all it's glory!.

Thanks for the edit Leon and Ithoriel :)
Paul, this is the first time I've tried washes on 10mm and to be honest I'm not chuffed with it, I highlighted over warpaints soft tone so I'll try another technique on the next squad.
I took the liberty of trying to imitate Dougie with the basing but again a work in progress so hopefully I'll get a bit closer to it as the army grows.

Cheers

I tend to use a black wash for 10mm with so little space I find you need to emphasise the shadows

Truly amazing... Have a yen to do some Falklands War stuff one day. How well I remember that conflict disturbing my O Level studies.

Posts like this totally depress me though. How do I get the painting superpowers so many if you all display???? I've been doing various scales and eras over the years and this is the smallest, buy how I aspire to this standard!

Excellent and thanks for sharing...
