This army I'm working on is a mix a of the traditional IG forces. Some steel legion, cadian and catachan forces. I was trying to emulate a tau scheme as my guide. Being a chef from Florida the kasrkins kinda remind me of a stone crab claw. See the pic for a reference lol

So progress has been slowed by preparing for vacation but here are a couple quickly done updates. I don't know if I want to go jet black on the bases or desert as seen on the one kasrkin. Thanks for looking!

the scheme works well on them, looks very good. I like the weathering you did on the chimera as well. Keep up the good work.

Thanks! For the first layer of highlight I mixed tau light ochre w/ Vallejo buff. I was thinking just a straight buff glaze for final highlight to make it pop.

Definetly a good mix of Kasrkin and Steel Legion. Makes the Kasrkin pop out nicely from basic troops. Color scheme is nice as well!

Nice! I dig the extra armor panels (reactive armor?) on the chimera. It's a cool personal touch!

I love the color scheme, I can't wait to see more

Steel Legion, my man.
Love the paint job, looks very crisp and clean.

**Elbows**

Scheme works really well. It'll be perfect too with some bright blue on the plasmas and maybe power swords (blue works really well with Ochre since it's so close to orange).

I agree, I also love it that you use some OOP models in your army. I cant wait to see more of your models in the future.
