I'll try a flesh wash next time though and see how it goes.<br />After I have a batch done I'll give them a spray of matt varnish, but I haven't on this one yet, which leaves it a bit glossy at the moment.<br />Thanks for the feedback!<br />AlanAlan Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01373566207194936501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6133661363979591460.post-8733320739020121002014-10-06T09:57:16.422-07:002014-10-06T09:57:16.422-07:00Nice work Alan.
