Hi everyone, I have picked up a load of these old Warzone Imperials to start an AM army with and am after some advice for colours and a quick, easy way to paint a lot fairly quickly in roughly the colour scheme pictures I would ideally like to use paints I already own but am thinking of buying a brownish primer to speed things up. My basic plan is:

Spray with primer (Either Leather Brown (AP), Desert Yellow (AP) or Zandri Dust (GW))
Paint green clothing with Army Green (AP)
Helmet, shoulder pads, gun in Dark Bluegrey (Vallejo)
Metal details in Gun Metal (AP)
Wash whole model with Agrax Earthshade (GW)

Does this sound reasonable? Please bear in mind I have only recently started painting so need to keep it simple!
