    Yes, i like to add some different figures in other coat colors to add contrast and to make it look like they are part of the action.

    I have made good progress on the mounted Officer.
    For the white coat i used a Mix of Vallejo Panze Aces afrika korps shade, and a dab of Vallejo German Grey.
    Highlights added vallejo silver grey.
    For the reds i have used vallejo scarlet red , then added formula P3 Khorne Red for lights....
    For the horse mantle i decided to use my Jo sonja tubes, they hace been sittimg for quite sometime now and want it to use something different, so, i decided to paint the mantle crimson in order to provide some contrast from the facing red color on the coat.
    Used Vallejo game glorious gold with a dab of yellow ink, once dry i added a couple of vallejo sepia washes. 20231103_222000.jpg 20231103_221848.jpg 20231103_221922.jpg

    Cracking figure, the coat will stand out as a separate focus point on the diorama.

    The amount of detail you're getting into these tiny figures is incredible.
    I really like the scene presentation.

    I am almost done with the horse and Officer, still need to work on the face, hat and hair.
    As for the horse, still need to paint the base and little details on the horse rains. 20231104_210614.jpg 20231104_210637.jpg 20231104_210705.jpg
