Painting 15mm

[Agincourt]

Has anyone got any advice for painting 15mm infantry? Painting the armour is easy enough, but painting infantry looks hard. I have yet to do so, but I'm getting a rifle company and any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks for reading guys

My (do as I say not as I do) advice for wargaming figures is to keep things simple. Carefully paint your base colours on, so maybe for a rifle company you paint uniform green, boots black, belt and packs black/brown, flesh paint a flesh colour, etc. Just the basic stuff... but do it tidy.

Then get brown ink, water it down about 50/50 and paint over everything. Let it dry and apply another coat if needed. This is enough for eyes, mouth, shading etc.

I would stop at that for 15mm.

When you have painted your entire army, you might find some time to come back and add a bit of dry brush highlight.

For 25mm then a bit of dry brush highlight makes all the difference.
