The picture is not the greatest, but it does seem to be the right color for the armor.
Try this for better pictures...
Set quality on phone to max resolution.
Set up a dark background for picture.
Use tripod or something stationary to hold camera.
Get closer and take picture of 2 or 3 models per pic.

What do you plan to do with the bases?

I really wanna do cobblestone but I have no clue. Been experimenting with the gw technical agrellan earth as well. Not a huge fan thus far, but I'm always looking for ideas.

I like where you're going! Unfortunately, this doesn't meet the requirements for posting in the Showcase just yet - in particular, models need to have completed bases. I'm sending this to Painting & Modeling for now.

Somewhere in south-central England.

Here are some ideas for doing cobblestone bases.

1. You can get plastic card embossed in different patterns such as field stone or square setts.

2. Acrylic jewels as used by crafters, available with a flat back.

3. Real pea gravel, though the smallest available is usually about 4-5mm, as used in gardens and aquariums.

4. Sort seashore sand for suitable small pebbles.

I'm writing a load of fiction. My latest story starts here... This is the index of all the stories...

We're not very big on official rules. Rules lead to people looking for loopholes. What's here is about it.

Why thank-you very much sir! Will take those into account, i actually went to the FLGS and grabbed a few bit's he had and got creative with the basing, i will be debuting it with my DeathWing Knight's im painting next! Anyway's i finished these guy's off to get em of my table, i got so much to paint.

Soo got home, used a lil wash, did a quick basing and i now present my finished Deathwing! Hopefully with better pics.

I would paint the edge of the base black. As it is now it blends in too much with the sand.
