Using Paint Triads on a 28mm American Civil War Union Officer from Perry Miniatures

In this video I demonstrate how to paint a plastic 28mm American Civil War Union Officer from Perry Miniatures with paint triads. Paint triads are three similar shades of a colour that are applied in layers to give a shade, midtone and highlight to an area of the model. I use some proprietary triads from Wargames Foundry and make up some of my own from Vallejo and Army Painter paints. The full list is below.

Very good mate. Just goes to show there’s more than one way to skin a cat. Or in this case, to paint a mini. 😉

[@CullodenPaintingStudio]

Absolutely. Does me some good to switch up the styles now and again.

Great job! Do you sell any of your painted figures? I'm looking for Earps, Outlaws, and Calvary for my Gunfight at OK Corral.

Replied on the cowboy video, but I'll paste this here too: So this one is for my personal collection. I do offer commissions through www.cullodenpaintingstudio.co.uk - however, I am fully booked for the time being. I'll update the website when I am available. Thanks.

[@JohnWise-vg3zj]

Thanks for responding.
