As the title says I'm working on making a Mentors space marine army and while painting the marines themselves is easy, I am at a loss as to how to paint their tanks!

Anyone have any ideas how you think they might paint their tanks?

For those who don't know the Mentors look like this

I hate to state the obvious, but if you want to stick closely to the scheme, probably go with white highlighted with green or vice versa. Of course, you could always depart from the scheme some if it looks good.

I'd check other Space Marine armies that have the separated torso/head and the rest of the body and see how the colours were used on their tanks. I remember there being a book called "How to Paint Space Marines" that might have a few pictures

For some reason, I can see the vehicles being primarily bone with green and white highlights, like in the ditches on the sides of the Rhino, or on the doors.
