U.S. subs… regrettably, this is one of the units I couldn’t find replacements for - so the U.K. and the U.S. share the same mini  :oops:  But eh, with FMG’s minis I’ll be able to completely trick out the global and not have this problem. :-D

[i rock]

so is there any technique i should know before i panit my pieces?

[Viracocha]

Thanks DFW!

Irock, yeah… I guess I could try and give some pointers, though I’d suggest searching online for such - because a lot of how to sites include photos as well.

First off - you’re going to need more colors from the ones you have listed. Its not feasible for me to tell you which ones or which brands - there’s just too many and the shades are pretty much up to you.  There are - believe it or not - massive debates in some circles of miniature painting concerning which shade of gray is most like the standard confederate uniform or the proper tones of this or that camo…  So at the end of the day, it’s a personal thing.

Actually… upon further consideration, I was thinking on doing a step-by-step with photos when I paint FMG’s new Italian pieces.  So, you might have to wait (it’s not something I can explain in just a couple paragraphs).  But if you’re in a big hurry, there are websites.
