- Hello, I'm just getting into miniature wargaming with the Ogre system.
- I've purchased a number of the Armor units, and I'm at a loss as how
- to paint them. I understand stuff such as primer, undercoats, washed,
- and dry brushing. What I'm looking for is suggestions on what colors
- to paint things. Are there picture books that show examples of modern
- armor unit's various paint schemes? I've thought of just olive green
- for forest work, and tan for desert combat; however, I'd really like
- some examples, or pointers to examples of how to paint 'realistic'
- camouflage. Gaudy for the Ogre I can do. Thanks in advance for any
- help and or advice you can offer.

- P.S. Is there anyone else in the Minneapolis/St. Paul region who is
- interested in Ogre? Northfield is nearly local based on my driving
- habits...
