I added some transfers - Archer

dry rub downs from their 1/48th

scale WW2 range - and painted on

some vehicle insignia as I didn’t

have any transfers for the Apex

Dragoons.

Then - to remove that ‘just out of

the factory’ look - I used about five

fairly familiar techniques.

The first were ‘pin-washes’: using

a brush to run thinned black

Humbrol enamel into cracks and

panel lines. That was followed by a

selected wash with MiG dark

brown stain over various areas,

including the vehicle commanders

(who I had previously blocked out

colour on for flesh and equipment).
