Before i attempt and possibly ruin models I was wondering on peoples preffered ways of painting grey power armor, so far i've thuoght of trying

prime white
wash badab black to dark the recesses n stuff
layer on codex grey

prime black
adeptus battlegrey all over
badab black wash
layer codex grey

Second way should work better, first is either going to look a bit white or too much like sprue. That's probably going to be the main challenge with codex grey.

2nd one, use a Brown wash instead of Black

2nd should work better and give your marines more definition.

Cheers,

2nd way, and maybe add Fortress Grey for extreme highlight.
