I've finally started painting again and am trying to match the colours of the new models to the old ones. I'm painting a regular trooper and a highland guard as testers before the mass production is rolled out! It's slow going at the moment and I've not worked out how to do the tartan yet, but I should have these two done in the next day or two!
Only the main tunic coulour has been finished so there is still plenty to do!
There are heaps of good 'how to paint tartan' pages on the net.
