Cos it's well boring!
I'm more inclined to use a metallic finish to make them a bit more 'Iron-ey'. With this in mind I have decided to use a black base coat with a strong drybrushing of a dark metallic colour. I plumped for Gunmetal Blue and have finished this stage for the first thirty marines.
After this I am intending to paint the guns and bionics in a lighter gunmetal colour and then use a black wash to dull down the figure. After that I'll pick out any flesh and other details prior to varnishing. Should be a fairly straight forward job getting these done.
TTFN.

Excellent stuff - wish i could use lunchtimes this productively.
And I think the FW official colour for Iron Hands is metallic with washes so you're in good company with that scheme.
It's my favourite Colour!
Looking good m8 - back in black
