I wasn't too keen on them initially but when regular customer Noel asked me to paint them as a follow up to his ACW's I wanted to see what cold be done with them! My method is speed painting with lots of pre dry brushing before picking out the detail. I have this down to around 3 hours per 4 sprues by this method which seems about right, as always I could of course go further with detail and highlights etc but Noel is very happy with the results ( I also base them using the Vallejo Earth texture which is so quick and easy to apply). One tip here is on basing those tricky frontal individual pikeman.
