Really like this metal model from the Nickstarter. The multiple layers really threw me to begin with. Not sure which combo of colours to go for.
I started with a Halfords Grey Plastic Primer and because of the array of layers hit it all with Nulin Oil to make it easier to identify the garment parts. Decided to start with the bottom layer shirt and want with the same citadel smurf blue I used on Qui-Gon. I had said I would go for a less bold scheme for the models not representing the Daktari, but it hasn’t really gone that way when I get sat down with the models. I lent into that a little with the Deathguard Green of the main coat and sleeves and the buff waist coat being a Zandri Dust and Morghast Bone colour certainly isn’t as poppy as the red and the blue.
The face looked nice after the Nulin Oil and I wanted to do some tribal scars or markings. I think the white nose and freehand markings look good. The trousers are a Vallejo German Grey. The staff is a Vallejo Military Green. The metals are a mix of Vallejo Gunmetal Grey and the Runelord Brass, with a highlight of Silver. The pouches are Dead White again as with the Captain. The Mornfang Brown of the greaves / putties and the Vallejo Flat Brown of the knee pads was working with the WYSIWYG that this guy doesn’t have light or heavy armour.
I am thinking I might find a symbol to put on the pouches of the specialists and the Captain and First Mate, but not sure what to pick yet.
