    Hey there. I painted my Cryx to be weathered and disgusting. All the metals are made from a basecoat of mithril silver, coloured and shaded with black, sepia and black-green Vallejo inks using brush and sponge.

    You can see some converted biles here:


    And my Seether and a couple of necrotechs:


    You can see more pictures in my painting and conversion log. The link is in my signature

    I went with a beetle black carapace trimmed in a very dark brass with bronze for the bolts, some details in copper and claws and tusks done in bone. I just posted pictures of my first Slayer and Leviathan up on my blog http://brynngarsgamingblog.blogspot....leviathan.html.

    Do a little search here and look for Zoroastre. His Cryxian horde is fantastic.

    Are there any good schemes done in Red / Maroon? I too have loads of Cryx that is unpainted and need a scheme...

    I've been thinking of using Adamantium Black (reaper) and some dark bronze color like sycorax bronze for my metals... but the rest... Bone? Maroon? I don't want to use the typical pallete of blacks and greys.

    Retribution: 212/240pts 88.33% +6/7 casters | Cryx: 156/228pts 68.42% +7/7 casters
    Trollbloods: 250/252pts 99.21% +10/12 locks | Legion: 144/163pts 88.34% +5/6 locks
    Mercenaries: 169/169pts 100% +5/5 casters | Cyriss: 0/0 +0/0 casters [To be Added]
    Protectorate: 10/133 7.52% +1/3 casters | Total Collection: 941/1184pts 79.41%

    Base is Coal black, and just varied levels of Vallejo Emerald for the green colour.

    Redfinger, they look really nice. Looks like Oxidized copper

    Jon Webb's Cryx are red, and beautifully painted. If you look for the monthly painting pledge thread for June you'll see his Deathjack.
