For the fleshy areas I went with variations on either Blood for the Blood God or Tamiya Clear Red with some dark tints over a flesh wash, depending on how glossy I wanted it. Carapaces were Menoth White Highlight, with various gloss flesh washes. The armored shells were gone over with another Menoth layer and then gloss varnish.



I want my bugs to have increasing amounts of shiny porcelain carapace depending on importance in the hierarchy. So Mr. Lictor here gets some on top, to represent being a cool assassin cricket, but still mostly flesh and bone. It looks a little weird due to glossy carapaces reflecting everything around them into funhouse mirror patterns.



These guys and the eventual gaunts will get the barest, quickest of paintjobs to save on sanity. Primer, airbrushed Menoth White basecoat, wash, and goop some red on the fleshy bits. The mucolids in the back are all flesh, so a lot of red aside from claws and spines. Bases will be purple and black with assorted alien foliage being light purple or green.
