In this video I show you a simple process for painting 1/72 scale WW2 US Infantry. Perfect figures for tabletop wargaming and dioramas.

The method I use is a simple one:
1. 2 passes of primer: 1 Vallejo Black, 1 Vallejo MODEL Color Khaki sprayed from over head
2. Tan and Beige Red for caucasian skin, but you can substitute your own variety
3. New Wood and Flat Brown for the Wood and Boots
4. Charcoal for the metal of the weapons
5. Vallejo GAME Color Khaki to highlight the jackets

If you want to take them a step further you can apply a sepia wash and then re-highlight any areas that get too washed out.
