Alternate Astral Claws color scheme

I did this earlier this week as a color test figure.  The idea was to ditch the usual silver & blue colors, and go black& red.

I still wanted to keep a slight hint of blue though, so the banner and base got a teeny bit of a grey down dark blue.  The insignia is a neat one, so I look forward to incorporating that into lats of areas on the actual minis. :-)

  1. I cant wait to see the small force in this scheme! You blew me away with the sheer sexyness!

  2. Dude are you posting these as you paint them or are they older works as well. I imagine you as a kraken with brushes instead of tentacles...

    James is such an ocotupussy name right?

    I think your grey could go a little cooler and to be a true inverse shouldn't the red be painted metallic style?

  3. this is a very cool look James - I REALLY like it. I agree too that the grey could go a little more towards cool/blue - have you tried p3 coal black (handy colour that) and it looks as though you got a flake of something in the insignia on the banner.
