I am currently working on this 1/16 scale figure from Royal Model. It was previously released in 1/35 scale and I now have the pleasure of painting the upsized version. It is fully painted in Gen AK Interactive Gen 3 and ABT 502 acrylics. The base colour is AK 11416 Waffen Brown Grey. For colour variation, I added a touch of Saddle Brown for a more warmer/reddish hue and Basalt Grey for a faded "stone washed" appearance. The green areas are painted with AK11415 Splintermuster Green. Again, for colour variation, I added a little AK11139 Golden Olive for a warmer/yellowish hue and AK 11411 Light Green for a lighter tone. An equal of blend of AK11410 Dark Green and AK11418 Brown Black is used to paint the dark green areas. ABT 1146 Raw Umber from the ABT 502 family of acrylic paints is used to paint the outline border of the green regions.

Cheers,

Calvin
