I got a bit more painting done tonight.

These half dozen zombies are all in greatcoats. Instead of giving them a contrasting cuff I decided to leave them as either brown or grey. Bizarrely enough there are three identical pairs. Even though I picked them up at random I have managed to paint one of each pair in brown and the other in grey.

Their flesh tone is skeleton bone at the minute, but once dry I will add various washes. Some greenish and others a more khaki colour. Even though I have been painting lots of zombies and other undead I still haven’t got the hang of painting their flesh.

The greatcoats have yellow epaulettes, mainly to add a bit of a brighter colour, but also because I saw them in the Osprey book on Russian Napoleonic infantry and I quite liked them. I will try and add a number on each, however it may lead to a repaint 😁.

My MDF bases have arrived so I can base up to 100 infantry on the 2p sized base. I managed to find one to base all six of the lot I am painting now.
