Green would stand out well on the red masks, probably a darker green with much lighter highlights, but i think a lighter blue would work better with the overall scheme.

The problem with the 'vote with your dollar' response is that it doesn't take into account why we're not buying the product. I want to enjoy 40k enough to buy back in. It was my introduction to traditional games, and there was a time when I enjoyed it very much. I want to buy 40k, but Gamesworkshop is doing their very best to push me away, and simply not buying their product won't tell them that.

Make sure you paint the lenses white, then put a blue wash on them.

You know what they say kids, drive it like its a rental.

Inside your mind, corrupting the pathways

I'd go with orange. Hit them with white, then use a watered down (a wash consistency) bright orange, then use a gloss varnish to give them a nice shine.

Green, definitely green. Green or neon purple/pink would stand out really well from the reddish brown you've got, and drive home how sinister they are. A light blue would look too vanilla.

I'd use one of the renegades from Space marine as an example:

Would definitely agree with the pink/purple, it'd look VERY cool
