I painted these at sort of the same time as Uma, or rather I did the black armour at the same time as painting Uma.  The rest was finished later so my eyes were much improved by that point.

Ironically I am starting to master my quick method of doing the armour (because I hate painting black) just as I am getting to the end of the Combined army models.  Those that remain are of high enough importance that I may consider painting them properly.  To get the black armour I prime black then drybrush three layers of great, a heavy drybrush of dark grey, a lighter drybrush of mid grey and finally a light highlight of pale grey or white.  Then I thin down some black speed paint and use it like a strongly pigmented wash.  Because of the nice red contrast and other details, your eyes are generally drawn away from the black (and thus all my sins).
