New Starter Paint Tips

[MarkElson]

Hi All,

New to Warlord games and painting figures, previously just completed Airfix etc. I have just purchased the 95th Rifles Chosen Men and want to get started with them. Can anyone help me get started and advise me on what paints and colours to buy to complete these guys? All advice will be much appreciated.
Thanks
Mark

Hi Mark, welcome to the world of Warlord and painting figures. This article is probably a good place to start, especially regarding suitable colours to use:

There are plenty of different options paint-wise, and different techniques that people use in their painting. Personally I don’t think you need to spray it black then green – the Army Painter coloured sprays are good enough that they don’t need anything under them.

You might also try posting questions in the Black Powder forum, where the people with the most experience of painting 95th Rifles are likely to hang out.
