Hello all

As the title says, does anybody have any tips on painting blonde hair in 1/35th?

I'm practising my figure painting on a couple of Hornet heads, and I wanted to know if there's a convincing way to represent blonde hair, preferably using acrylics.

Cheers

I have used Tamiya XF-60,I put some Mig filter in it if I want to vary it.

Check out the marching soldier with the canteen in my Panzer II build in my gallery,I think he looks OK

Thanks Anthony, I saw your figure, and the colour looks pretty realistic. I'll give it a go and see how it goes.
