Found these pictures on a thread. The OP says the skin is sunburst yellow with a ogryn flesh wash then with a sunburst yellow drybrush.
He says the carapace is bleached bone with a devlan mud wash but i don't think that is the actual colour of the carapace. Anyone know what it actually is? It definitely looks like it has the devlan mud wash though.

You can easily create that look with Astronomicon Grey and a Devlan Mud wash. I use the technique to create old marble-like surfaces.

It does look like Bleached Bone, if not it's something only slightly darker.

It almost looks like a Dheneb Stone base with a devlan mud wash.

Too greyish to be bleached bone, unless something else was added.

How did they paint the "skin" on that model?

Wow, I am sorry. I feel like an idiot now. I think I might have to try that now, but I am going to paint my carapace purple still.
