Boromite starter army

Another army of Antares is done, this time the boromites.  I quite like the official paint scheme, and I believe it came out nicely on my models as well.

This is the entire content of the starter army pack, and comprises 1 command squad, 3 fight ganger squads, 2 work ganger squads, 1 x-launcher team, 1 mag light support team and 1 unit of lavamites, for a total of 9 order dice, which make for a pretty good starter force.

    2. Hi, Faizal, this is how I did:
      - Grey Primer
      - Skin painted with Vallejo Model Color Pale Grey Blue. Scales get wash Citadel Drakenhoff nightshade. Smoth skin gets wash citadel Nuln Oil + Vallejo Grey wash (1/1);
      - Scales get medium drybrush of Vallejo Pale Grey Blue, followed by light drybrush of Pale Grey Blue + white (1/1) in a few spots.
      - Smoth skin gets the first layer of highlight in Pale Grey Blue and the second in Pale Grey Blue + white (1/1)
      - Yellow equipment in Citadel Averland Sunset, followed by wash Citadel Seraphim Sephia and highlight in Citadel Yriel Yellow
      - Green equipment in Citadel Catellan Green, followed by wash Citadel Nuln Oil and highlight in Castellan Green + white (1/1).
