The PVA...Thanks for the comments and encouragement<br /><br />The PVA was a tip picked up from the GW LOTR painting guide when they were talking about washes<br /><br />Note: The washed figures above (see the officers) have not had PVA mixed with the ink<br /><br />The PVA is supposed to react with the ink to spread it more (lessen surface tension and improve/quicken drying time)<br /><br />That's the theory, I'll see how it all pans out ;)Geordie an Exiled FoGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01002743056274635657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6502298319772392881.post-4268345694574278432011-03-09T11:52:47.969+00:002011-03-09T11:52:47.969+00:00Great looking unit.

Also, the taxing problem of how to best base 20th century figures - singles, multiples or combinations thereof.<br />The Russians look really good and I am seriously tempted to get some plastics on the go - techniques and paints have improved dramatically since I last painted Airfix Napoleonics 35 years ago!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6502298319772392881.post-54897952677972832292011-03-09T04:06:45.402+00:002011-03-09T04:06:45.402+00:00Nice work Geordie.
