I started painting the infantry with success, and with my vehicles I wanted the camo look. So this is what I concocted. Just give me some feedback, how do you think they look?

if you want to jazz it up, drybrush the edges on the green a lighter green and then the edges on the white a lighter white.

you could also use a stipple(?) brush to soften the edges of the camo.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1657572.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1657572.page GMT Re:Simple camo scheme for IG vehicles
I'd give the whole vehicle a wash of some sort to adda little depth and grime: the "white" areas of the camo look REALLY clean...

but yeah, do some weathering on the tank, like a wash of watered down chaos black, and then using devlan mud or something. otherwise, great effort!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1657774.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1657774.page GMT Simple camo scheme for IG vehicles http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1657961.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1657961.page GMT Re:Simple camo scheme for IG vehicles http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1657984.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1657984.page GMT Simple camo scheme for IG vehicles ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1658000.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1658000.page GMT Simple camo scheme for IG vehicles http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1658022.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1658022.page GMT Simple camo scheme for IG vehicles http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1658776.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1658776.page GMT Simple camo scheme for IG vehicles
If you want to do better, then you have to make it look like 1/28th scale sized people did it, rather than looking like it was painted with a giant brush (like it actually was).

That and just doing some more work on it, like adding highlights and grime.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1659147.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1659147.page GMT Simple camo scheme for IG vehicles http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1660046.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1660046.page GMT Simple camo scheme for IG vehicles

to answer this, I basecoat the model catachan green then paint a thin line of bleached bone to make sure the lines match up, after that I just thicken the lines, with the tan color you sometimes have to apply more than one coat.

Do you think a light wash of devlan mud on the tan parts would improve it?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1668227.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/299725/1668227.page GMT
