Firstly I am NO expert on Civil War colours but if it look right to you it probably is right.<br /><br />As a base Coat I used Games Workshop "Graveyard earth" (this is the same as Vallejo 141 if that is easier for you to acquire). Then simply adding White for the hi-lights and even more whit for upper higlingts. It seemed to give the effect I wanted at 28mm I would go lighter still at smaller scales. <br /><br />I hope that helps. All the best.Clinthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02351729764098750618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1391427662737871662.post-56850574076945227452015-08-15T15:16:16.076-06:002015-08-15T15:16:16.076-06:00what colors do you use for getting a good butternu...what colors do you use for getting a good butternut?wcwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04134798376426497919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1391427662737871662.post-65830579564841684332014-12-31T01:49:44.064-06:002014-12-31T01:49:44.064-06:00Thanks Millsey.
