Just primed my Dystopian Legions FSoA crew with the intention of painting them the same colour as my Necromunda Delaque gang. Unfortunately I can't find my painting notes for the Delaque gang anywhere, and I'm having trouble identifying the base colour I used Sad
Sorted it I think - I reckon it was Desert Yellow. Watered down base coat of such applied to 4 FSoA models, just to break up the Goblins a bit.

Tallarn Sand seems to be the "new" Desert Yellow in the revised Citadel range, but is presumably slightly different, so when my current pot runs out I might take the opportunity to try the "Desert Yellow" in the Vallejo Game Color range (supposedly an exact match for the previous Citadel range) - I've been looking for an excuse to try some different paints anyway.
They look good Stu, Gandalfs beard is amazing haha. For these hobby logs people should post images to flickr, its perfect for graphic type projects like these hobby logs!
Cheers JJ, all the credit should go to Quickshade though Smile

Going back to work this week has been a shock to the system, and I haven't summoned the energy to tackle any painting the past couple of evenings. Hope to make up for this at the weekend.
I understand that feeling. I haven't been on delivery since early December. Next Monday I am back in work, knowing how out of breath this bloody cough leaves me. So I hope, I can finish work early enough to allow me my target of one hour a day.
Sounds like a nice long Christmas break, hope you weren't suffering for the duration. Can empathise on the cough - I'm still shaking off the last effects of man-flu from before Christmas, but these things always leave me with a lingering cough that seems to be made worse by these cold, damp mornings.
Well trip to the docs said viral infection, which means acute bronchitis. Had two weeks leave after Xmas, and am still suffering over 4 weeks from the start. Still it's not anything time won't heal.
Kili and Balin done, and nearly finished Thorin.
