These guys are destined to form a distinct stand-alone force. Let's call it a platoon for now, with focus for now being Tomorrow's War, and inspired by Richard's 20mm Liberation Miniature Soviet VDV airbourne assault troops - I'm thinking of of recreating this look in 15mm. Here's a quick photoshop test before I put paint to miniature.....
Photoshop colour test
Works for me as a scheme which marks them out as Elite troops or Mercs, but will it work on the miniatures themselves? Let's find out. I'll paint a test miniature tonight.
Cheers

TEST UPDATE:
I really like the blue helmet/shoulder pad with the green camo uniform. Gives a nice colourful accent. Think I might try this if I ever get some of those armoured troops.
ReplyDeleteNice, they blue you've used almost has me thinking UN troops.

Nice idea - but I would tone the blue down a bit, it's a bit too intense.
