UNIFORM The most important thing on the Bobbies is the blue.  Getting this right will make or break your Coppers. In  reality the uniform was almost black, and it is probably  more realistic to go more black than blue, but it is  definitely blue, be it a very dark one.   BLUE 1. AP-WP1116 - Deep Blue mixed with AP-WP1101 - Matt Black plus AP-WP1115 - Ultramarine Blue 2. plus AP-WP1102 - Matt White (small amount) 3. plus more AP-WP1102 - Matt White  (small amount) 4. plus more AP-WP1102 - Matt White  (small amount) BASING I did these to match the other IHMN models I have done.  With the Constables I did add larger bases to the models,  painted in the same trompe l’oeil effect. See my previous  IHMN articles for details.  VARNISHING Again the same as I have detailed before, the only extra  was to re-varnish the helmet badge with gloss to simulate  the enamelled Metropolitan Police badge.
