im new as i said before i like dakkadakka to other forums, dont know why but i just do. i play imperial guard and have a lot of them but im stuck on a paint scheme. i like the 252nd kauravan conservators out of dawn of war soulstorm but i dont know what colours they are painted.(i tryed to find out on the internet and couldnt find anthing, thats why i made an account.)so f you know can you please tell me.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/377181/2958211.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/377181/2958211.page GMT im new, like a lot of people I have a pic from DOW of the 252nd Kauravan Conservators.

Using GW paints this is how I think it could be painted:
I'd say the flak armour looks like codex grey with a little bit of graveyard earth mixed in, maybe a 5:1 codex grey graveyard earth. You can Highlight this by adding successive amounts of skull white to the 5:1 codex grey graveyard earth mixture.
The green is probably Gretchin Green with and the camo spots maybe a 1:1 mix of Gretchin Green and Desert Yellow. Again You can Highlight this by adding successive amounts of skull white to the previous mixture.
The gold can be done with either Shining gold or brazen brass.
Use Chaos black highlighted with codex grey for the gun stock, boots and gloves.
Metal bits Boltgun metal highlighted with chainmail.
For faces I use Tanned flesh highlighted with Elf flesh.
Wash the whole thing with Devlan Mud and I think you might have a guardsman pretty close to this scheme.
Test this out on a test figure first to see if it works.
Hope this helps...
Have fun.

As with camo here are some links that may help. The colours may be different but the skills are transferable.

And do the camo on your tanks the way that you think looks best or is eaiser to do as it seems you have to paint a lot.
