Hi, I've painted these models in a different paint scheme to my other warriors, any thoughts and cc is welcome.

So far so good, however I would recommend you base the models to make them look like a coherent unit; I'd use Lustrian Undergrowth or Stirland Mud if they were mine

Also have you tried applying a wash/shade to the skin and fatigues to add depth to the miniatures?

Thanks, I did add a very watered down agrax earthshade to add a bit of depth to the muscles etc but I do need to get some shades and washes

Looks great so far! I would suggest a good wash on the fleshy parts to give them more depth, and also basing the minis with muddy/forest like theme to make them stand out as catachans.
Other than that, good job.

Agrax Earthshade will work perfectly on these models in my opinion, however I wouldn't water down any shade as it is practically unnecessary; shade will flow into the recesses of the model freely, you just have to make sure there isn't too much on the model in general when you apply it so that it doesn't create nasty pools in areas you don't want it to be in.

Once you have gone over it in shade, consider painting back over the flesh using whatever colour you used previously, but leave the areas where the shade has settled - that should make your Catachans stand out nicely
