So I've been taken with blue/orange color scheme and decided to try my hand at coloring marines in 1/2's.
Take a look and tell me what you think. The chevron I think still needs to be lighter - but since I used white on the orange pad, wasn't sure if I just kept building the up to lighter blue for the arrow?
The last pic is a bit blurry, but overall I think the poses give a good idea of what I'm going for.
C&C welcome!

Thanks.
No madam, 40,000 is the year that this game is set in. Not how much it costs. Though you may have a point. - GW Fulchester The Gatling Guns have flamethrowers on them because this is 40k - DOW III
Otherwise it looks good... only comment and It may be the photos blurriness, but the colours don't look very deep, moreso the orange, a few more highlites and shades.

the white schwould be better realized with the thinnest of outlines and yes, i agree, the orange could take another level of lighting.
Something is lacking elsewhere....maybe codex shoulderpad rims or kneecap insignia...something to round out the uniform other than just half half head .
Cool. Yes - he is AoBR 2 piece. Pose was for the pics, not the model
I'll get the arrow painted white and see if I like it.
Maybe use numbers on the knee pad for different units. . .
