Went a little bit further with painting than I intended but these aren't yet finished, still some bits of painting to do and the basing to finish off.

Very nice!
If it were me, I'd add a diluted black or brown wash, just to tone down the colour a bit and blend it all together.

Well done
Dave

I did use a small amount of wash on the flesh areas, to add some definition. I've previously washed over entire figures but I find that doing it on light colours, such as yellow, dulls things down too much for my taste.

If you do decide on a wash - which I recommend. You could finish up drybrushing the light colours back on afterwards with a very light amount of paint. That would bring out the colours again and depth at the same time...

I might give it a try. Although everything has had to be put away for awhile as SWMBO is having a "house tidy" blitz and my stuff scattered about "looks messy"  ::) ::)

I just need to leave it until she gets her scrapbooking stuff out in a few days, then it'll be "weapons free" on the painting front  :D
