Thanks chaps. The basing is quick drying polyfiller painted with GW Graveyard Earth followed by a wash of GW Devlan Mud then a drybrush of Valejo Dark Sand. Grass tufts are from Mininatur.

I used two different methods for the cloaks.

The brown cloak is GW Desert Yellow, then dry brush with GW bleached bone. Then wash with GW Sepia, then Ogryn flesh, then devlan mud then badab black. Each wash works away from the highlight.

The grey cloak is a straight forward foundy triad with some white added in.

It's sometimes good to add the lighter colours at the edges of the cloak rather than all the way across it.

Cheers Wayne.

Nice work on these guys. I use a similar method to do my bases. I tend to use beastial brown which gives slightly different tone to the Graveyard earth, but both work fine of course and I use either colour.

Those cloaks did come out realy well. I like the Foundry 3 stage colours, but I find the colours usually too close in tone. So I often use the shade colour neat, then add 30-40% of the highlight to the base colour and the add white to the highlight colour. This then gives a more distinct change in the 3 colours.

Looking forward to seeing the rest of them.
