A colour question! - Martin Wallgren - 02-03-2006
What kind of colour do you guys use when you paint your shields? I don´t mean green or red but rather how the colour is mixed and what it is based on! Oil, egg, plastic???

what paints - richsc - 02-03-2006
Currently, we're working with cassein and wax paints. We did use acrylic but that of course wasn't around back then. Some other groups are working with egg tempera. I think they'll all chime in shortly. You can find a number of other threads on this in the forum.
