Hi guys,
This is my first ever Elysian and my paint scheme test.
Feel free to comment, it's now or never because this weekend the whole detachement gonna be painted !

The light isn't good but you can get an idea close enough.







White basecoat, zandry dust, agrax wash, ushabti bone dry brush for the fatigue,
White basecoat, castellan green, nuln oil wash and Elysian green drybrush for the armor
I wanted to paint the lasgun with a darker grey but I took the wrong paint. Not bad anyway I think. Ulthuan grey, nuln oil x2 and ulthuan grey highlights.
The flesh is ratskin basecoat, reikland wash and Cadian fleshtone highlights.
The gloves and boots are rhinox hide + nuln oil + doombull brown highlights

He is varnished.

I tried to do an arid base, on the pictures we can see I misses some spots

I'm very happy with him, particularly because I tried a more modern approach: neutral brown for the base, white basecoat and others technics I normally don't use like drybrush for infantry.

And here is the whole squad !

And today I painted a lieutenant and his plasma command squad ! I will start painting the Tauros venator tomorrow or Tuesday.
Do you think I should move it to the blog section ?

I like them very much. Altough the guns are a bit light for my taste.
