Theses guys have stripy pants and green shirts while some others with have stripy shirts and green, white or cream coloured pants. There will be a few with white or cream coloured shirts as well.
The models have a some consistency but some have helmets that are different, some have gloves, and some do not. I decided to go with a colour scheme that will match a little.
Stripes are finicky to paint and to look good. My original idea was to paint the whole team like the characters from Banannas in Pajamas but the test model I did was a little scary looking. I have not taken a photo of it yet but I will later on so that people can get an idea of my original concept. I did not try any new techniques here mostly it was just layering from dark to light. I mixed a few colors together for the base of my shirts and pants which you really can't see any longer. It was mostly to cut down the harsh white primer. The skin tone is just watered down P3Bloodstone and I will go over it with P3Khardic Flesh and then highlight with a brighter tone. The Stripes will be highlighted with white and blue and with luck the will stand out better on the gameboards. The Helmets, Shoulder and Gloves will be some complimentary colors and I will add a little yellow and orange for contrast afterward. I am still not sure how I feel about the uniforms but its a little late to be worrying about it. The scheme is pretty solid. Once they are done it will be time to number them.... I dread this upcoming time.
More tomorrow.
