I painted the skin with the same basecoat, but with different highlight colours on these models:

70.872 Chocolate Brown
70.860 Medium Flesh
70.845 Sunny Skintone

With the pelts, I added a small amount of violet for a third colour to the grey and brown.

With the next batch of 5 models, I basically followed the scheme from the first group. To slightly change the appearance (it is neither a uniform for the unit nor industrially manufactured clothes), I added blue to the basecolours of all the stripes.

The shirts I also painted slightly differently, but still using the same main colours as in the first group:

After painting the bases, I started with the trousers. First, they were painted white in three consecutive lighter shades:

70.989 Sky Grey
70.907 Pale Greyblue
70.993 White Grey

Then, I added stripes in different coulours. I tried to paint them quite thin, so the shaded white would shine through and give a first shading/highlighting to the stripes.

70.956 Light Orange
72.025 Foul Green
70.925 Intense Blue
70.811 Blue Violet
70.953 Flat Yellow

A thin wash of SWW001 Soft Body Black was applied as extra shade over the whole trousers. The stripes were then highlighted in the base colour with some white mixed in.

The yellow looked a bit weird, so I washed the yellow stripes with very thin 73.200 Sepia Shade, then highlighted with 70.915 Deep Yellow.

The skin was basecoated, then highlighted in several steps, always mixing the new colour into the last one.

70.872 Chocolate Brown
70.804 Beige Red
72.703 Pale Flesh

I painted in some more details, then sprayed the models in gloss varnish to protect the work done so far, and to provide capillary action to the washes that will follow.
