It's been quite a while since I worked on sci-fi figures, so these have been an interesting new challenge!
First, it is fun to paint something that is not greens or earth tones... and also some metals. I used the Reaper Blue, Brown and Gray liner paints.

Otherwise, it is very likely that endless seas of "grey" would get very boring!
I believe that all of this is from Puppets War, made by DreamForged Games
Working within grays has been so important over the years, I even made that part of the Painting Pyramid. As you might imagine, that episode was called "Shades of Gray". It was one of 5 'color theory' videos that I did, similar to this:
I will be trying to finish off one of these on Twitch once I get that figured out!
