Google the Mordian Iron Guard for dress-y style uniforms?

If it's not the color you wanted, then maybe think of what appeals to you?
I personally think Mordians happen to look very good in gold and white.

I'd say do a Google image search on military dress uniforms. See what you like and what fits your aesthetic groove. You might also want to look at law enforcement as well for inspiration. As for figs, find some Mordians and make make them whatever damn colour you want I reckon.

What are you using for models?
Mordians can hit $1 per point if you buy from GW. You could try Cadians with West Wind WWII heads.

Mordians are $35 per squad of 10 models.
That's 2 pts per dollar.

@ OP: You can paint them whatever colors you like.

I currently use Mordians for any guard units in HQ squads or Platoon command squads. (including attached heavy weapon teams).
I guess in order to save some $$$, you could use actual mordians like I do and then use cadians for standard troop squads with swapped out heads from a different company.
