Division Légère in 15mm - by Jim Clark
Painting the vehicles
That's it: assembly finished, now to the painting. I had in mind a WW2 French camouflage pattern,
but wanted a picture to make sure I'd remembered it correctly, thankfully a friend found a website for
me so I was off.
It's a very simple pattern really and I used the following paints, all Vallejo Model Colour;
Desert Yellow - Base Colour
Reflective Green - One Third in Patches
Flat Brown - One Third in Patches
Black - This was used as a border between the other colours
Track Primer - Skirts and Aerial Bases
Gunmetal Grey - Support Weapon Barrels and Aerials
Periscope - Vision Blocks
Light Grey - Sensor Domes on Artillery Turrets and Radar Dishes on Calliopes.
What next?
That's it really. My Next Project will be creating my own Mercenary Group, the Grossdeutschland Grenadiers, but I intend to repaint
some of the models I already have and buy a few extra from GZG and Brigade Models. The camouflage will be loosely based on the
urban style using two tones of grey, black and white, so: watch this space!
