Re-colouring card models

[bulldog drummond]

I'm quite new to the hobby and have seen that lots of designers offer "white" versions of their models. I've seen the great hand-painted efforts of many builders but don't know where to start using a printer. Can anyone offer advice as to what programs/methods to use?

I'd like to build the Finnish version of the Stalhart Gladiator and want to add the swastikas.

Thanks,

Andy.

Rob Carleen has a re-coloring tutorial on Fiddler's Green:

That is not only a good reference for re-coloring but a tutorial on model building in general. This is excellent for newbees just learning.
