I got these pretty much finished tonight.

Well when I say finished….

I want a better highlight on the green uniform, the collar and cuffs and the boots (I totally forgot the boots).

I am really happy with how they came out. I did a bit of humming and hawing about uniform colours tried to find something useful online about Austrian uniform colours. They pretty much seemed to be white with various exceptions – (in fact they wore blue or Pike grey coats…I found out after painting them).Therefore I went green with yellow. I did toy with the idea of a brown coat, but with them being dogs I felt everything might blend in.

The first two up for a closer look are:

Then onto these two…

It was I added the above that I realised that I had forgotten the rolled greatcoat on the one carrying the barrel. Monster brown was the first paint that came out of the box so he has a brown greatcoat.

Interestingly enough I had a swine of a job getting the yellow to cover the green. I suddenly remembered something in GW’s how to paint miniatures. Basically make a pastel shade to go over a dark one… I gave it a try and it worked fine.

I am quite pleased with my painting progress over the weekend.

Since Friday night I have painted everything I undercoated on Thursday.

I think I will move onto the reanimator and crew next. Then that way I have painted everything I got for Christmas.

After that who knows🤔🤔🤔.
