Since the last photos, I've added Copper onto the armour, washed the armour with Drakenhoff Nightshade, the leather part with Agrax Earthshade and stuck the heads on.
Now i'm going to do some armour highlighting, drybrushing and damage effects.
Update - So, I've dry brushed some Copper on, reshaded, then put some more highlights on with a bronze colour. I think i went over the top with the bronze. Here is a pic. The process after I based it, is dry brush with the Copper, then reshade it with Drakenhoff where I think it was over coppered. Then I dry brushed the Runelord Brass on top. Although the Runelord Brass seems a bit bright at the moment, I think it'll be good for the figures in the long run. Next time though, I'm going to go easy. I find the Tamiya paints a bit thinner and hard to dry brush with. The GW Runelord Brass was very easy to dry brush with.
Here you can see how the figures are a little too bronze.
My next step should be to finish up the leather parts and then move on to the weapon and helms. This will involve using a edge highlight for the black parts of the helm and weapons. It will also include using a metallic silver, either ironbreaker or leadbelcher for some bits of the model.
Sigh, I kind of feel like emphasizing a Chocolate theme with my army. Yes steam punk is cool, but the hull red undercoat made the figures look like Artisan chocolates. I think in future, I'm going to go easier on the coppers and brasses, and try for a more Chocolate look rather than an overly metallic look (as I have at the moment). Anyway that's it for now.
