steve_990 Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 I like the snow base. Really makes the mud tracks stand out. You might want to build up some highlights on the green to make it pop a bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maulwurfmann Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 Like Steve said the green could use some highlights. For myself i wold brush some muddy brown to the tires. They are black like straight out of fabric, not just driving through mud and ice. If you don´t feel like highlighting try to use a brighter green and wash it. Keep on happy painting steve_990 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Z Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 I would normally say paint a bit lighter and then wash, but i think because the base is so light , i wouldnt change how you have painted them at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awesomeshotdude Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Great looking buggy mate, I really like olive drab type colours for military vehicles...especially a cool little combat buggy like this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
althorin Posted November 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Ok first chunk of directorate complete. now I have a problem. Looking @ ideas for the Aquans and came up with the following. the bone was my first idea but I am not overly satisfied with it, so I have thrown together the orange. Nether is finished yet by a long shot, and the bases are still separate. So what do people think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_990 Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Directorate buggies are looking good. I like the Aquan in the bone colors myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hannibal Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 For Aquans you may try somthing between the two colors (ivory) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkjedi203 Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I like the Halo colours on the directorate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maulwurfmann Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I would paint the Aquans in white and grey as the right one. Because it fits better to your base. Both colour shemes are solid should do. Keep on painting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
althorin Posted November 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 Ok got on a roll with the Aquans so here is a couple of wave shots. Next up I'm gonna finish the directorate. After that it the allied helixes. Mage, darkjedi203 and Caine-HoA 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_990 Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 Glad you went with the bone color. I think it looks much better en mass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkjedi203 Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 They look great. Winter Covenant! Also, how are you planning on painting the Terquai, if you get them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
althorin Posted November 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 I have the teraqui but as yet I am not too sure. Works Raptor are gonna be blue and black. Terquai I think will need to primarily be a wash over primer as painting infantry is a little small for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
althorin Posted November 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 Ok this week I have been busy. First up are a couple of Helix shots of my directorate. As yet unnamed currently considering Aperture Acquisitions. But something McDonald's, EA, Blizzard or Fox are also possible. So without any more rambling. Now 2 of the Teriyaki. finally a close up of the directorate infantry ok just Works Raptor to go. Well that and objectives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

althorin Posted January 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Ok the holidays have been and gone time for an update. So i purchased a Relthoza core helix for my significant other for Christmas and as part of the present i offered to paint it for her. i got her to chose 2 colours, she went for sky blue and scaly green, and set to it. here are the results. So that 160+ annoying spiders finished (well bar weapons). Next up purple Sorylians 2 core + 1 heavy helix to arrive in approx 2 weeks vonHymack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

althorin Posted January 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Ok another update this time just because they are purple does not mean Barney is involved . really happy with the scheme over all and the drop marker is fantastic in person. However i now come upon a minor problem, I have no idea what colour to paint my heavy infantry. I want them to stand out but not clash with the tanks and light infantry (who will be the colour of those on the bikes and apc). Any ideas? Oh and the last two heavy legs are on the way form Spartan, yes another misspack! So the heavy helix's heavy has a partially painted large.

Fighting platform will be a deep purple like the armour on the rest of my Sorylians. c0rruptd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
