hi i like all of your turoials on painting the figure i dont have any foundation paints so in the next week or so i was going to buy the graveyard earth, i just wanted to know if it would do the same job. With the skin i useing goblin green wash it with thraka green wash ad drybrush with scorpion green and a highlight of bleached bone on the palms of the hands and it does like the same effect as yours but i didnt know if using scorpion green was the right thing as i don't have that yellow

Hi. Remember that the most important thing is to do what you think looks good (what a cop-out!). The only changes I would make to your recipe would be to add some basecoat to the B.Bone before using the colour on it's own to soften the transition, and use B.Bone in the highlights on the rest of the skin to unify the colours on the model but that is my personal opinion and taste. It's a creative hobby and all I hope is I help a bit. I don't use the Foundation Paints, so G.Earth would be fine.

{addenum} When I say I don't use the Foundation paints, I meant at home. I just haven't had any spare money to purchase the set. The Foundation paints are great, I just have a load of the Citadel Colour range. But I will be buying a set, and I do have a set of the new washes to experiment with.
