Overcoat and Capes Irish Brigade
Hi All, Can anyone help me with the colours of the Irish Brigade Overcoat/Capes. I use Vallejo paints and the photos i have seen of the Irish Brigade seem to be a blue/grey also what would be the best highlight. Many Thanks. Paul.

For the Union overcoats I used Humbrol pale blue 89 (same as the union trousers) and dry brushed with pale grey, you could use the darker mid blue 104 in the folds of the overcoat if you wished.
