The Partisan now has his tricolour armband, Sten and spare magazine painted. As with all my figures (and pretty much anything else apart from vehicles) I finished him off with a wash of Citadel Agrax Earthshade.

It's been trial and error with the colours to be honest Jerry.
I had my real Tuscany soil which I ground up in a coffee grinder to remind me what it actually looks like - but we all know colours change in scale and there's also the question of how one colour looks when set next to another.
Another issue I have struggled with is the light and shade. Until I had painted the groundwork, by base was far too light (insulation board or Das clay) and so everything else looked too dark. Then I painted everything a deep brown and it all looked too light!
Anyway, there's still a few bits and pieces to finish here - although it's definitely going into the MAFVA competition this weekend!
