I enjoy viewing photos of such . . . but I do not have the time nor skill to do that so I use my quick and simple method.<br /><br />Finally as to which inks I used. I am not suggesting that these would be the best; they are simply what I had on hand. I suspect that there are many inks that would work just as well or maybe even better.<br /><br />I used a Games Workshop "Chestnut Ink" #61-69.<br />I used a Reaper Minatures "Woodshade Ink" #08206.<br /><br />I used both of the above mixed 50/50 with water.<br /><br />I also tried using a Winsor & Newton Ink "#954 Nut Brown" similarly diluted with water and was unhappy with it. I suspect that it would be better undiluted (but I did not try it that way).<br /><br /><br />-- JeffBluebear Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05171345165563779232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-460038961192134030.post-16810956226388771162015-01-10T22:10:15.357-08:002015-01-10T22:10:15.357-08:00don't know the rules eithe, Jeff, but their FI...don't know the rules eithe, Jeff, but their FIW book is a great reference, campaign and interesting rule set.<br /><br />Posting Christmas Eve? Hope you were just taking a break from Santificating and such.<br /><br />I'm back now after nearly a year of light involvement in my ECW project. Still working on selling off more stuff, especially 28mm Sci-fi. But with 10 infantry and 10 cavalry, I'll be done the entire initial order of 40mm stuff, and can get to some painting and some more ordering, I may add.<br /><br />Hope you are having a healthy and happy 2015!<br />best, AlexECW 40mm Projecthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16170190784599775214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-460038961192134030.post-7976587729012689292014-12-25T04:20:18.719-08:002014-12-25T04:20:18.719-08:00Jeff, while I have never played the rules within F...Jeff, while I have never played the rules within FGKaC, it is an excellent reference booklet.<br /><br />Looking forward to your play test of the rules.<br /><br />This reminds me that my ECW collection has not seen the light of day for far too long...I need to brush them off and get them onto the gaming table.
