drewwills Posted January 4, 2019 Report Share Posted January 4, 2019 What can i say, the green and silver simply isn't doing it for me. Does anyone have some examples or ideas for other schemes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spooky_squirrel Posted January 4, 2019 Report Share Posted January 4, 2019 I'm leaning towards purple and bronze, but I haven't broken out the paints in a while so we'll see how far that idea goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey me too! I haven't painted much but looking to change that with TOS, but my thoughts were for these exact same colours, with some changes depending upon unit type to make it a bit easier to distinguish them at a glance.

trikk Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 I will probably go for a desert-tone for the uniforms with metal armor parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drewwills Posted January 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Pictures look great, I've seen pics of someone else's project who has tried a yellow scheme. but the depth and choice of shade colours you have used is much more effective. I've tried a number of things and been less than pleased with the results, I did try a copper and green scheme however which I do like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The purple is because prince will have his cloak purple (royal color, you know), and i wanted the mehal have the purple of the prince for beign royal guards, but the rest of the army wont have it.

Count Zero Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Vallejo desert terrain effect. After use it, a friend talked me about GW terrain effects, but are a lot more spensive (the vallejo effect was over 12€ and is huuuge). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trikk Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Thanks. I'll look for it. Did you do anything with it or just put it on the base and let it dry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just put it. I've tried with a spoon, putty knife, a card... and the best result is with the finger. Prepare to get dirty hahaha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gullinbursti Posted January 15, 2019 Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 I use a really old mangled brush as a scoop for scenic paints myself. Really looking forward to getting my allegiance box so I can start painting myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Favilludo Posted February 12, 2020 Report Share Posted February 12, 2020 So i just started my army with the electrocutioners, which i did with a shiny silver and light blue tone, however, i dont think i will keep that for the other units, since i want the electrocutioners to stand out as the ones in the really shiny new tech, that hasn't even been painted yet (also works out better as a Faraday's cage without paint). I quite like the idea of purple bronze or purple and a steely type of colour, might try that out. I am however very much a beginner and dont know at all what i am doing so... This would be the first electrocutioner: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
