CAV SO Bones: Rach paint scheme test (gnomic, dictator, despot)

[Skrill]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to figure out a paint scheme for my Rach force in CAV SO.

I want it easy enough to paint in batch, appealing enough, and not the traditional full red scheme.

 

Here is what I came up with for a few models:

 

I really love the Gnomic model. There is something about the asymmetrical look that appeals to me.

 

And a few details:

 

C&C welcome

[Glitterwolf]

Great job, love the colours!

 

Very cool on the green plasma gun effect

[BLZeebub]

Good colors.  And I do like the plasma glow!  Smooth work too.

[Sergeant_Crunch]

The color scheme works quite well. Good work.

[Edsterdoom]

Great colour scheme and the OSL for the plasma gun, the black and red really works.

[kristof65]

I like that scheme, I may need to steal it. 

[uncas]

Those are great! 

[Vil-hatarn]

Beautiful greys, nicely done.

[Chaoswolf]

I think you've come up with a great paint scheme!

[Lord_Bryon]

Amazing work.  Love the OSL on the first Mech

[MikeD]

Outstanding paint jobs!  Nicely done OSL too. 

[Limey72]

These look fantastic

Love this paint scheme. The red really pops, but it doesn't overpower the mini.

 

Can I ask what color(s) you used for the black/grey buts? It's so convincing I can't quite tell if those are all metallic paints or if it's NMM.

[CAVBOSS]

Very nice! Well done for sure!

Thank you all for the nice comments.

 

The black/grey are:

Base coat of Vallejo air "Base Grey" with GW "Nuln oil" wash and highlighted with Panzer Ace "Russian tank crew"

 

The metallics are GW "iron breaker"

 

The red is a Reaper MSP mystery colour (I got it free in one of their package. Must be an off colour batch, and the bottle doesn't say what it is.).
