Hi guys,
A quick update from my American Bolt Action force...
I have finished my 1/48 scale M8 Greyhound and painted it up. I base coated in black then hit the top with white to give the next base coat some fading. Avoiding olive drab as I much prefer the dark green look, which is pretty close anyway once olive drab weathers, so I used gw spray paint dark angels green then dry brushed a few times with a touch of olive drab and military green. Added some rust, weathering and mud and I am a happy camper.
I have also done a test model for my infantry and to keep me from spending too long on each model I basically primed white then gave myself for 5 minutes to paint all the base colours on. I am relying on the two washes to bring in the details. The first a heavy red-brown then a black. I will go back and highlight the flesh and paint weapons to finish it off but I am pleased with the result.
I am hoping to batch paint these in large batches to get them done. I will do a more detailed post and list my colours etc when I do.
I also have an M4 Sherman to put together. Again, it is 1/48 scale and I will do a review of the kit when I assemble it and post it up.

Happy Gaming.
Capt Tycho.
