Each Ape with Baton was then drenched in „Citadel“ Nuln Oil, and had their trousers and sleeves pigmented using a combination of „Vallejo“ Heavy Violet and „Citadel“ Druchii Violet. The gorillas‘ faces, ammunition belts, rifles and straps were treated to a layer of „Vallejo“ Heavy Sienna, whilst the soldiers‘ wooden sticks were painted using some Charred Brown.
