Painting horses

After a long and stressing week I'm to relax myself painting some cavalry figures.
The color of horses depends on the type of unit: heavy cavalry (dragoons, cuirassiers...) usually had a greater percentage of dark horses, whereas the light ones were reserved for light cavalry (chasseurs, hussars...). Therefore I use the following approximate percentages:
Heavy cavalry horses: 60% reddish; 30% light brown; 10% dark brown
Light cavalry horses: 30% reddish; 60% light brown; 10% dark brown
Light grey horses are reserved for trumpeters, and I paint also some odd horses: light grey, dark grey or blacks to increasing the variation.

Below there is a scheme of the painting in the order Base color/First light/Second light. When Idem appears it refers to the same mix with a greater proportion un the lighter color. All the numbers are from Vallejo paints

Reddish Horse
814 Burnt cad. Red + 950 Black / 814 Burnt cad. Red + 982 Cavalry Brown / Idem

Light Brown Horse
875 Beige Brown / 875 Beige Brown + 981 Orange Brown / 875 Beige Brown + 981 Orange brown + 955 Flat Flesh

Dark Brown Horse
872 Chocolat Brown + 950 Black / 872 Chocolat Brown + 875 Beige brown / Idem

Light Grey Horse (Trumpeter)
992 Neutral grey / 991 neutral grey + 990 Light Grey / Idem

Dark Grey Horse
994 Dark Grey / 004 Dark Grey + 992 Neutral grey / Idem

Enjoy!
