My friends was wondering what is the best base color to use to paint his horde?
He wants little painting time as possible.
He doesn't know if he should go skin tone color or a color for their rags.

If I was going ultra quick, I'd pick the skin tone I wanted, then do a quick basecoat on the rags, then wash it all with Devlan Mud wash.

I used this method
(be sure to check the other video too)
Which had me painting 60 Z's in under 8 weeks (admitidly with only an hour a night sometimes less), just be sure to spray OUTSIDE and in daylight to get the best results.
I have been toying with the idea of doing some with a final wash of green or purple to add a bit of variety / putridity
as I still have 120 to paint.
