My First Painted 10mm Rebs

Post by RMD »

My first 10mm Rebs are finally finished (Pendraken figures) and I'm happy with the results. I painted them in three batches of 30+, with each batch taking 1.5 sessions from start to finish, so they're about 50% slower to paint than the Union, but not insufferably so. I'm normally someone who paints UNIFORMS rather than random shades of mud, so I was scratching my head at the start. In the event, I did the first batch in jackets coloured two shades of medium and dark grey (some with regulation blue facings), then the next batch had two shades of light grey and one of light stone and the last batch then had six shades of various browns. The trousers, hats and blanket rolls then had a whole range of colours thrown at them. When all three batches were done, I then did some command stands and mixed the whole lot up before basing.

I'm no expert, so would welcome some criticism!

It's occurred to me that those photos come out really small on the forum, so let's try this:

That's better. I can see them, and very nice they are too.

Nice looking chaps from a bloke who has painted a few 10mm in his time.

Very nice! If you were Andy you'd have photoshopped a couple more brigades in there. I'm sure you'll do better next time.
