Here is my guide for Painting 10mm CGW Germanic Warbands, during Caesar’s Gallic War uniforms using Vallejo acrylic colours. I have also done a painting guide for Painting CGW Romans and Painting CGW Celtic Warbands.

Painting irregular armies such as the Germanic Warband, an assortment of clothing colours looks best. To do this job quickly I sort out the figures into groups prior to painting. And then paint the groups in order see below.
- Group 1 gets green tops
- Group 2 gets red tops
- Group 3 gets blue tops
- Group 4 gets brown tops
- Group 5 gets grey tops
Next, choose another 5 colours and do exactly the for trousers.
