I'm new to Flames of War, thank you for the tutorial. I can't argue with the results or your experience, but I've found it to be faster and equally effective to basecoat with the highlight color and apply a somewhat darker/heavier wash. In the end you get very similar shading and natural highlights that you don't need to paint on.
Thanks for this tutorial its very nice. I recently bought the paints you used and I noticed something odd, maybe is the lighting you had when recording the video or the paint being watered down, buy my Luftwaffe Cam. Green-823 looks way darker than the green you are using on the zeltbahn camo. I know it´s a 2019 tutorial, but I have to ask, are you sure it was Vallejo's Luftwaffe Cam. Green-823 the paint you used?
I personally always find the Vallejo Washes to be... odd. Like they don't behave like a Citadel Shade or Army Painter Tone Ink, even with water added. They tend to just "stain" things like it's been dragged through the mud rather than settle in the recesses. The effect might be less pronounced at 15mm however.
I use citadel agrax earthshade and nuln oil. I've found out that Army Painter black & strong tone washes are almost the same, just a little different shade. The citadel pot for washes is more preferable to AP's dropper bottles for washes though (even though for normal paints it's the other way around)

Just picked up a couple of cans (one khaki for Yankees, one grey for Germans), thanks for the idea and your post.
I am looking forward to your waffen SS painting for infantry.
Nice painting btw,thanks for the video and tips.
Great tutorial! I have 15 mm figures I painted myself but mine never looked as good as yours.
Insane paint job on such tiny models. Wow!
But is sepia wash similiar to wash made out of vallejo brown glaze?
Thanks for finally doing this! Great vid
Superb mate simple but effective 👍
Anyone tried using GW paints? What would the equivalent be?
What ratio should I use to make the sepia right?
You make this look so easy... bout to go screw up a whole set.
Lmao. Me too! And I'm going to wing the colors because I don't have any of the ones he used... Btw did you have any luck completing it?
hate the scale, love the work!
Superb tutorial! Easy subscribe. Oh, and I got the very same book. 😊
Does dry brush work like highlighting?
Yes but it’s difficult to get a good result on 15mm figures
Use a small makeup brush and very gentle strokes, don't scrub it over the model.
Great video.
Thanks great video!
Noice vid man
Does anyone else have trouble with paint sticking to these new plastic figures? I’ve been using Vallejo primers/paint.

Hey awesome! Any plans on doing DAK?
Not just yet but I will definitely keep it in mind.

Are you watering down all base coats? You mention the first two colours and then not again until the washes.
Always water down you're base colors! Two thin coats!
wow you are good
no paint list
Imagine going through all that work just to play the game as it's advertised.
It's like 50% of the game dude. Just like Legos, it's kinda the point
thats... the point of it.
😐 oh shit this guy is for real... Wow
