Andy has us over a barrel…<\/em><\/p>\n

I picked up a few packs of 28mm scenery from Frontline Wargaming last year; they\u2019ve been sitting around gathering dust, so during one of the recent washed out weekends I sat down for a painting session.
\nThere were a few pin holes that needed filling and filing before the brushes came out.<\/p>\n

Paints used were Vallejo (V) or Army Painter (AP) acrylics.<\/p>\n

I undercoated the scenery matt black, and then painted them a variety of shades of brown (V). Once thoroughly dry they were given a wash of soft or dark tone (AP), depending on the shade of brown paint, then varnished with matt varnish (V).<\/p>\n

The water surface on the horse troughs were Painted Dark Sea Grey and given a couple of coats of gloss varnish (AP). The pump was painted Gunmetal (V) and given a dark tone (AP) wash.<\/p>\n

25MR3<\/strong> – Brewery \/ Vintner (4 vats,2 tubs, bottling table)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The metal bands on the vats \/ barrels was painted Gunmetal (V); the bottles in the crate were painted Luftwaffe Camouflage Green (V), and then given a coat of gloss varnish mixed with AP green shade. The water in the tubs on the table was painted the same way as the horse trough water. The contents of the large tubs were painted Dark Sand (V) and washed with AP soft tone wash.
