Description

In this video we will see how to paint two figures of German soldiers from World War II at 1:35 scale.

The first figure represents a crew of a tank with the characteristic black uniform. I will show you the paint of the face: skin color, tones, beard shade, eyes, as well as hair and eyebrows. We will also see ways to achieve various shades of the black color to paint the different garments of the figure and thus get the miniature not to look excessively monotonous. I will also tell you how to address the smallest details: buttons, badges, etc.

I will finish the process of this miniature painting the leather boots.

The second figure shows a crew of a armored vehicle with the uniform "Field Gray", representative color of the German army.

In this case I will vary the skin tone with respect to the previous figure and paint different tones of "Field Gray". We will also see a way to simulate the texture of wool garments as well as the paint of a belt, both the metal buckle and the leather strap.

All the paintings, inks and metal pigments that I have used during the painting process of both figures are acrylics.

Who this course is for:

  • Historical miniature painting enthusiasts.
