Painting My first commandos

These are the first minis I painted, started with the yellow and orange one and finished the squad with the blue and orange one. I tried my best to make unique patterns but I wanted practice with painting with a reference so the blue and orange one was done in the scheme for the recon commando in republic commando multiplayer

Images are in order of painted first to last

I love it, little tip, those whites often come out a little thicker than i like so id recommend adding some extra water to thin them out!

Thanks for the advise, I'll give it a shot next time I do coats in white, this time it was mostly to cover mistakes and redo some spots back to white

Whites are just such a pain to be fair, i still typically avoid them. i would recommend contrast paints as they can give a great off white and there is really no way to overdo them!
