Hi Odst369.

If you can give a little more info, I am sure we can help Do you want advice on what colours to add to the scheme you already have to help them stick out, or are you looking for painting tips for the colours you have decided on?

THE CUT!

I would go over the hawk turquoise with a darker blue.than hi light it with the hawk turquoise?

You can try washing everything aswell to tone down the colors.would also create a shadow!

Give some of the camo uniforms to tie in the sniper and add diversity.

good luck!
