It looks like bleached hide, stone washed denim and an opulent deep red! A brass colour was used to pick out the buttons. The basecoat for the inside of Aiyana's cloak is Vallejo 985 Hull Red (a deep burgundy). I add progressive amount of Citadel Red Gore in layers (3-4) and then wash with Citadel Baal Red with a tiny drop of Badab Black. Owen Holt’s jacket turned out well.

Have to agree about the sleeves on Aiyana though. Her cloak looks excellent though and the inside is a fantastic shade of purple, which paint was that by the way?

I think I'll apply a thin red glaze to make it more pink. The skin and blouse are distinguishable when held close, but wargaming is all about arms length. Owen Agreed.

The only thing I would have done differently is not paint Aiyana's sleeves the peach colour. It looks too similar to a skin tone and confuses the eye....or maybe just my eye....both of them actually.

I didn't want them exactly the same as they're not a conventional unit. I think they're similar, but not the same :-) Owen Thanks.
