My guess: Skull White, Quickshade light colour, highlight with white.

I would base it with a dark brown and paint it up to bleached bone, Wash the entire model with some brown wash, then bleached bone again, Highlight with 50/50 bleached bone - skull white. Guess thats the fastest way I can come up with wich have decent results.

I got a similar color scheme while I was testing some white armor schemes myself. Like its been said before used a brown baseboat and work your way up to bleach bone. I used Beastial Brown then Graveyard earth followed by a 1:1 mix of skull white and bleached bone, after all that I just highlighted a bit with Skull white. It won't take long post some pics when you're done then people here can give you more tips from there.

This. I'd use devlan mud, thinned down with some water so it doesnt darken the model too much.

LOOK!! a shameless self-promotion! (gasp!)
