A Story of Two Nevilles

 Or "How It Started vs How It's Going".

This is a fantastic sculpt from the Turnip28 range (https://www.patreon.com/posts/turnip28-core-81080090). It's 3D printed, but to a high standard and is a wonderfully crisp. I had two, and thought it would be fun to two a clean version, a "before the war" if you will, and then a second in much worse condition.

I think the clean one is self-explanatory, it's a riff on the classic British Napoleonic infantry uniform, which is when Turnip28 is set in an alternative universe, but I've painted the bobbly headddress as a grapevine. The disheveled version is the same palette, but I've used browns, greens and greys to make it a little sadder.

For the most part it's only a handful of paints; violet, vermillion, greenish white, Sahara yellow, coal black, goblin green and only a little black and white. I did a good amount of mixing to keep the palette harmonious.

A friend suggested building a small scene for them, and I can see
