The Green Ardua

The Green Ones

The smaller "green ones" are the Green Ardua. And yes, they are wielding a flower (especially dangerous to those of us with hay fever).

There are four identical castings—so to make them look a more varied, I used a different skin tone on each one. The common equipment was painted the same as the "blue ones."

The Deadly Flowers were done using Vallejo Game Colour Gold Yellow (+ white for highlight) on the middle, and Coat D'arms Lupin Grey or Linen with a white highlight on the petals.

The End

The final touch is to drybrush the base Inscribe Taupe and then Almond, leaving the middle bit darker for the figure's shadow. After that, a quick coat of Vallejo Matt Varnish.
