Good morning guys,
I am about to paint my French artillery guns and I am having some difficulty settling on what colours to use. I have books with depictions of the damn things and technical descriptions of how they mixed ochre to paint their guns. What I would appreciate is if you could please share what colours you use to paint your French artillery pieces. Vallejo, coat d'Arms and GW are all easily available to me so if you are using any of these please shoot. I don't mind mixing for the second or third coat; I often do it anyway. I just need somewhere to start from.
Oh and for anyone who hasn't tried it, Humbrol 53 is perfect for painting the metal parts of the guns.
Thanks and have a good weekend all,
Fanis
