Spacenam as Urban Infantry: Battle Ready & Beyond [How I Paint Things]

You don't have to reinvent the wheel whenever you want to put a few squiggles on a miniature. All camo patterns we paint at this scale are a variation on blobs, splats, or squiggles - all that changes is the colours we use. So let's keep it as simple as possible and stick to just black, grey and white. How do we make that look a little more interesting on the table?
