Will and I were talking about these last sunday and how much time i was saving with them being pre coloured. Prior to this i have been using the white and painting it chocolate brown which was taking an age having to wait twice for it to dry and then touch up any areas of white i had missed. I have the Brown and Dark earth.

Craig us it a little simular to the GW basing textures? Only ever tried the martian earth one so was curious.

Hi Ian
Its similar from what i can tell, however the GW stuff i think gives you different surfaces as it drys (cracked earth for example). I have some but have yet to try them, i'll let you know.

Just ordered the desert sand one to try out in my zulu war british!

I used paint tester pots to mix with the base render prior to application. It worked pretty well for my Zulus.

Thanks fr the tip Andy, they didn't have the colour I wanted in stock at Minibits so got a shade darker. But went to B&Q this morning for some bits so picked up a tester pot of a nice sandy yellow colour!
