I tried painting a gloss enamel varnish over the fogged out troopers but to no avail - so I just ended up spending about 2-3 hours repainting the worst of it. They dont look too bad, and next time I'll be more wary on how and when I spray varnish!
I took some liberties with the campaign trousers, these should be green with a yellow stripe. However, I felt this would make them a bit too similar to the chassuers a' cheval so to make them more colourful and distinctive I painted them red with a yellow stripe. In all fairness they did wear hungarian breeches that were red, but these were normally with the fancy boots.
I think they look fine. I'd have been stressed if the can had done that to me! I stick to Vallejo. As long as it gets a good shake it's fine. I do find it can lose a little of the matt when you get to the end of the can though.
